Single Ticket

The Single Ticket is for a single trip in the direction of the destination. You are allowed to change and interrupt your trip. Return trips, however, are not permitted.

The Single Ticket is ideal for spontaneous journeys with the MVV – and it is even cheaper when bought at a ticket machine by cashless payment. If you’re planning more than 2 trips in the Munich city area per day, we recommend purchasing the Day Ticket.

Do I have to validate my ticket?

Yes, you do. All tickets must be stamped prior to the start of your journey. However: tickets bought at ticket machines on trams or buses are already validated at the time of purchase. When using the ticket machines of Deutsche Bahn, you can choose whether to buy pre-validated tickets or tickets which must be validated separately.

 

Stripe Ticket

Stripe tickets are a strip of 10 single tickets that can be used for multiple people and journeys. The voucher is divided into 10 parts and depending on the destination, one or more of these parts are validated. For more than two trips on the same day, it’s more advisable to buy a ticket valid for one day.

Day Tickets

Valid for unlimited travel from the moment of validation until 6 am the following day, these are individual and can only be used by one person at once, but save lots of money if you’re planning a day with multiple public transport trips.

The fares for the 1-day ticket depend on the zone covered:

Innenraum (Inner District): € 9.70

München XXL (includes Dachau): € 23.00

Aussenraum (Outer District – Inner District NOT included): € 24.80

Gesamtnetz (entire network – all of the above): € 28.50

Group day tickets (2-5 persons)

The perfect option if you’re travelling as a couple, a family or a group: you get unlimited travel for up to five adults for the selected amount of time (and two children between 6 and 14 years old count as one adult). Again, these tickets are valid from the moment of validation until 6 am the following day (or three days later, depending on the option chosen).

Fares for the 1-day group ticket vary based on zones:

Innenraum (Inner District): € 18.70

München XXL (includes Dachau): € 20.10

Aussenraum (Outer District – Inner District NOT included!): € 37.00

Gesamtnetz (entire network – all of the above): € 38.00

A 3-day group ticket will cost you between € 17 (£ 14.70) and € 29.60 (£ 25.50) depending on which zones you’ll use it in.

AirportPLUS-Ticket

The AirportPLUS-Ticket is a day ticket which includes the journey to/from the airport and the city area of Munich (validity zone M – 5). The AirportPLUS-Ticket is available as a single ticket or as a group ticket for up to 5 people. Any two children aged between 6 and 14 years count as one adult.

You can buy the AirportPLUS-Ticket from the ticket machines at the airport and at most S-Bahn (urban rail) stations.

The Airport-City-Day-Ticket cannot be purchased from the ticket machines at the following stations, since they are located too close to the airport. When departing from these stations, select the destination “Flughafen” (airport).
