Verkehr: Deutschlandticket wird 2027 wohl teurer – Entscheidung steht an
Einen möglichen Preis für das Ticket für das kommende Jahr gibt es bereits – nun muss ein Gremium darüber entscheiden. Grundlage bilden Personal-, Energie- und Betriebskosten.
In 2027, the price of the Germany ticket may rise to approximately 67 euros, according to a media report. The Rheinische Post cited the "Coordinating Council for the Germany Ticket," which will determine the new rate on Wednesday. The council consists of the federal government, states, major trade unions, and the transport industry.
This will be the first time the price is set based on a cost index agreed upon by the country's transport ministers. Currently, around 14.5 million people hold a Germany ticket, allowing them to use public regional and local transport nationwide. The ticket has been 63 euros per month since the beginning of the year, up from 58 euros.
Travel agencies and local transport associations have lost significant revenue, so the federal government and states are each contributing 1.5 billion euros annually to fund the ticket.
