"Go West" train tickets from Hungary to West Europe
Posted on: Mon January 07 16:54:44 2008 UTC

Very inexpensive "Global Trainfare" tickets from Budapest to many West European cities:

Vienna: 13 Euro
Venice, Munich: 29 Euro
Zürich: 39 Euro, direct train
Also:
Karlsruhe, Baden-Baden, Kehl, Strasbourg, Saalfeld, Jena, Naumburg, Lipcse, Lutherstadt Wittenberg, Berlin, Göttingen, Hannover, Hamburg, Aschaffenburg, Frankfurt Flughafen, Köln, Düsseldorf, Nürnberg with one change of the train: 39 Euro

Mannheim, Frankfurt, Mainz, Koblenz, Bonn, Arnhem, Utrecht, Amsterdam: 42 Euro

These prices are valid for limited seat contingent. It is basically the same price level as Austrian "Sparschiene" from Vienna plus 10 Euro for Budapest-Vienna service if necessary.

If the seat contingent is sold out or not available, it is still possible to use these trains with very discounted price: the passenger would pay the same price as Austrian resident who owns a "VorteilsCard" train-discount card. In such case the Budapest-Vienna service would add a mere 15 Euro to the "VorteilsCard" price.

This is a great opportunity because unlike for point of sale in Austria, there is no need to book via Internet: it is assumed, Hungarian residents have more limited Internet access, so for them special conditions were created. The tickets, however, can be booked without any residence or citizenship restriction.

SparSchiene prices:

from 13 ?: Wien no train change
from 29 ?: Venice, Munich no train change
from 39 ?: Zürich, no train change
from 39 ?: With change of train in Vienna: Karlsruhe, Baden-Baden, Kehl, Strasbourg, Saalfeld, Jena, Naumburg, Leipzig, Lutherstadt Wittenberg, Berlin, Göttingen, Hannover, Hamburg, Aschaffenburg, Frankfurt Flughafen, Köln, Düsseldorf, Nürnberg

I cannot translate for the entire Hungarian railway web site. If anyone has a question for a certai date, ask www.wasteels.hu in English - they are capable for expert ticketing.

The above prices have a certain limitation of seats but more importantly, there is an advance booking requirement, usually a week. In the case if it cannot be met, the non-advance booking, unlimited contingent prices will apply, which are Vorteilscard + 15 Euro.

This is also a good deal because you will receive Austrian Vorteilscard prices without having the Austrian discount card and pay only 15 Euro for Budapest-Vienna transfer by rail.

In any case: buying the tickets "TO" Hungary is almost always more expensive than buying "FROM".

Also, use Wasteels office - they speak English and are located at Keleti station.
