How much will Berlin public transport cost in 2027?

The Berlin and Brandenburg transport association (VBB) has disclosed the upcoming adjustments to public transport ticket prices in Berlin from January 1, 2027. Passengers can anticipate higher fares across all modes of transportation, including S-Bahn, U-Bahn, tram, and bus services. However, a single ticket price will stay unchanged, priced at 4 euros for the AB zone and 5 euros for the ABC zone.

All other ticket types will experience an average price hike of 3,72 percent, which is considerably lower than the 2026 price increases. For instance, a four-journey ticket will rise from 12,40 euros to 13,20 euros, while a 24-hour ticket will increase from 11,20 euros to 11,50 euros. Moreover, an AB monthly ticket will see its price go up from 113 euros to 117,20 euros. Comprehensive details of ticket price changes are available on the VBB website.

Notably, passengers with a monthly Deutschlandticket subscription, which provides unlimited public transport usage across Germany, will not be directly impacted by the fare hikes. Although the official announcement for the 2027 Deutschlandticket price increase is still pending, some analysts have made predictions based on the new price index formula.

This formula takes into account factors like employment costs, energy costs, and general expenses to determine ticket price changes. According to the WDR data journalists' estimations, a monthly Deutschlandticket subscription will increase from 63 euros to 66,80 euros by 2027, representing a 6,1 percent price rise.
