Traveling by train: Timetable 2027: What changes for rail passengers
Punctuality remains a challenge for train travelers in some cases. However, things are about to improve with a direct route from Munich to Rome. But that's not the only change in the new timetable.
The German railway company, Deutsche Bahn, is introducing new connections and services from mid-December. The company will offer over 320 international trips daily, with new routes to France, Italy, and Austria. A new Sprinter line between Hamburg and Munich will cut travel time to 5 hours and 20 minutes, with only two stops in Hannover and Nürnberg.
Tickets for the new schedule can be purchased from October 14, with no price increases, and the company aims to improve its punctuality record, currently at 52.4% in September.
