Luxembourg Frankfurt - Luxembourg by train
Posted: Thu March 5, 2009 03:51 PM UTC
Hi,

Does anyone know how much is the return train ticket from Frankfurt to Luxembourg ? I have tried bahn.de but the price is not available. And the europass is too expensive.

Thanks a lot!
Happy Traveling!

Is there a bus included in your travel? Then you can't find it on bahn.de. You can find the train part of your journey and then you will have to find the bus fare from the bus company.

For trains (except TGV) you can find the fares on bahn.de. Normal one-way fare is EUR 59.40. Discounted tickets are available from EUR 19 when booked well in advance of your travel (max 89 days).

http://www.bahn.de/international/view/en/index.shtml

will give you a return fare (as long as the bus is not involved) if you choose the return train time.

One-way is from around 54 euro, return from around 107. I don't think return tickets are any cheaper (although I may be awrong about this).

I just did a search on bahn.de from the Main train station in Frankfurt to the Luxembourg Gare stop. There was a listing for the Europa-Special-Luxembourg for both 19 Euro, and 29 Euro, (one way). Gary

Yes.....those cheap fares are excellent value. They are limited (in both train day/time and in numbers) so you need to book online as soon as you see one which suits. The drawback is that you must use them on the train you have booked (and I am not sure how it works if you miss that train...I think you then have to pay all the normal fare, or possibly just the extra).

The fares I gave are the standard ones, of course.

I forgot to mention, the fare will not be available on all trains. There will be a limited number of seats available on trains that do offer the fare. Probably most importantly, your ticket is only good for that specific train. Gary

@leics

What happens if you miss the train you booked is quite simple:
- If it's your own fold (you turned up to late) you will have to pay the price difference between your "special" and the normal price to the conductor.
- If it's the railway's fault: No problem. You can travel on the first train available.

Thank you for clarifying. I expected as much (it is the same in the UK) but was not absolutely certain.
