I got fined 60 EUR for nae having a ticket on the metro Munchen Ostbahnhof to Munchen Flughafen train on oor last day in Munich in April. We got away with it until then as within the city centre metro network there aren't sniffers employed by the DB going around. I'm still contesting the fine with the DB as offered to pay the actual fare price (30 EUR) but the sniffer wasn't having any of it. Yep, all booked up in advance, although weve not booked our travel after Munich yet, there seems to be some sort of offer related to the Euros Link to comment
dave_min Posted May 7 Share Posted May 7 Only nerds buy train tickets in Germany. If they really wanted you to pay they’d put up barriers or something. 1 Link to comment

The local rail network is free on match days if you have a match ticket. "Match ticket holders are entitled to a 36 Hour Travel Pass for the entire regional public transport network at no additional cost. From 06:00 on your matchday until 18:00 the following day. The pass covers both public transport within the Host City and also regional rail travel on the relevant network!". 1 Link to comment

A piece of gratitude exhibited by Muncheners for the boost you and the other Scotland supporters will be giving to their local economy. Der Spockmeier, just yards off of the Marienplatz, is a cracking boozer/eatery to get your Lowenbrau beers in.👍🍺 1 Link to comment

But how are they distributing tickets for 5+ games to one person when other people apply and get 0 tickets in total? Hardly seems like a fair system. Yep, 6 of us, tried every which way to get any tickets, in every game applied for, in cat A, B, C, all 6 of us, not one ticket. Link to comment
