Frequently asked questions

What about the validity of Rail&Fly online tickets?


Rail&Fly online tickets are only valid in conjunction with a Germanwings online reservation for Germanwings flights to another European country and only to travel to and from the airports in Cologne, Dortmund, Hanover, Stuttgart and Berlin. Rail&Fly tickets are not valid for domestic German routes, or for flights to Brussels, Zurich, Salzburg or Vienna. You can only book train tickets for routes paid in euros.

Depending on the type of your Rail&Fly online ticket (single or return), you can use it on the day of the flight as well as 1 day after and 1 day before departure. The outward and return flights must fall within a 6-month period. Outbound and return journeys must be direct to the destination airport/home station.

Rail&Fly online tickets cannot be booked via Germanwings for flights operated by our partner airlines. The conditions of each respective airline apply.

If your booking consists of an etix® ticket number and/or a Germanwings flight booked via one of our partner airlines, please contact the respective partner airline or travel agency to book Rail&Fly tickets.
