Train from Munich Airport to Salzburg

Hello ,
Can anyone please let me know if I can travel from Munich Airport to Salzburg Train Station using the Bayern-Ticket ?
What are the restrictions ? Is this the cost effective or there is a cheaper option to get train ?
Also trains are very frequent between the two cities, right?

Thanks in advance!
Best Regards
Arif

As long as you use one of the hourly Meridian (regional) trains between Munich and Salzburg you can use a Bayern-Ticket.

Buy the Bayern-Ticket from an automat (2€ less than from the counter upstairs) on the platform in the airport S-Bahn station. It will cover both the S-Bahn and any regional train to Salzburg. Take the S-8 from the airport to Munich Ostbahnhof (east train station) and change there to the next Meridian train.

A Bayern-Ticket can not be used for travel before 9 AM on workdays. It can be used all day long on Sat, Sun, or holidays.

Regional trains, for which the Bayern-Ticket can be used, run from Ostbahnhof every hour. The S-8 runs every 20 minutes. In between, another 3 per hour, the S-1, which goes via the Hbf to Ost, is not as effective at getting to Salzburg but cn bu used.
