Travelling With VRR:The Price Levels

Price Level AValid for trips within one city

Price Level BThe ticket normally needed to travel to your neighbouring cities.

Price Level CUsually for travelling between two neighbouring central tariff zones and to the adjacent tariff zones.

Price Level DTickets in price level D are valid throughout the entire VRR area.

We Get You There: The Mobility Guarantee

Traffic jams, parking offenders, breakdown or malfunction of vehicles or equipment – these can all be reasons for delays. We still guarantee you mobility.

The Mobility Guarantee allows you to take a taxi or a train that would require an upgrade ticket (IC/EC or ICE) to your destination. We will refund the cost to you if:

K your preferred means of transportation departs more than 20 minutes later than scheduled in the timetable and

K no other obvious means of transportation to your destina-tion such as bus or tram is available.

We will reimburse you the cost up to 20 Euros. You only need submit a request for a refund. The necessary forms are available from all transport companies or for download on the internet.

No refund will be issued if the delay is caused by strike activity, an act of nature or terrorism (for example an environmental catastrophe, bomb threat etc.).

Online Or With Your Mobile: The Journey Planner

Looking to go somewhere? To find out the best way to get to your destination, try the online journey planner available on the VRR web site at www.vrr.de/en. On the German site you’ll also find maps for every stop in the VRR area as well as route maps for all VRR cities.

You can also access the journey planner with your WAP-enabled mobile phone. (Please refer to your mobile phone’s instruction manual to find out how to set your phone up for WAP services.)

Here’s how it works:

K Enter the journey planner’s WAP address manually: wap.vrr.de.

K Or have us set your phone up for a nominal fee: simply send a text message to 82005 and save the download link to your mobile phone. Click on the link, and you’re done.

Most transport companies also offer up to the minute time-table information online (see pages 10/11).

Tip: Other people included on your ticket are also entitled to the Mobility Guarantee. More information and a request for a refund can be found in the German language brochure „Die Mobilitätsgarantie“.
