I tried to purchase a ticket from Brunico (Italy) to Linz using the OBB website. However, after purchasing I couldn't see any option to print the ticket. It was only giving me options of getting a code to print it at an Austrian station. (So I cancelled the purchase). I presume I will need a paper ticket if starting outside Austria. Did I miss this on the website?
When is your trip? On most days there is an easy one change (in Fortezza) trip from Brunico to Linz in the morning, and OBB can sell you an e-ticket for that. Maybe you are choosing a complicated route, or there is something going on at that date.
Trip on Saturday 9 September (2023). Preferably leaving late morning. (Trenitalia doesn't seem to be able to book anything).
The quickest connections appear to be a local to Franzenfeste, and then EC/RJ from there onwards. So just book Franzenfeste - Linz on OBB (Choosing the EC/RJ connection, not the ones involving local trains) and buy Brunico - Franzenfeste locally.
Update: I just had a look, and Deutsche Bahn can actually book this (their new international site is becoming quite good).
Thanks. I'll try DB since I have another trip with them.
