The selection of single tickets and 4-trip tickets starts at 1 fare stage and goes all the way to a single trip with 4 fare stages. There is a fitting ticket available for every journey.
4-trip tickets are on offer for short trips as well as for the fare stages (FS) 1 - 4. Please validate the number of sections needed for the fare stages you will be travelling in (for example: FS 4, all 4 sections need to be validated) and for every person travelling.
For short trips only four-trip tickets are available. One ticket section must be stamped for each journey. Journeys may not be broken and changes to different services may not be made.
Single tickets can be used to extend passes. For example, if you take a trip outside of your pass’s tariff zone, you can simply purchase a single ticket. Further details can be found in the section on ticket combinations.
Validity in the special means of transport
Single tickets and 4-trip tickets are not valid on the mountain railways in Dresden, the Meißen sightseeing tour, the narrow-gauge railways, the Kirnitzschtalbahn and in the elevator in Bad Schandau.
Validity in the first class sections
When using single tickets in the 1st class, a surcharge (additional ticket) for the corresponding fare stage is necessary. This surcharge is only valid for one trip, return trips and round trips are not allowed.
The tickets are not transferable after validation.
