Any suggestions on what train to take to Salzburg Austria and are there any direct routs from the airport

There are no direct trains from the airport. You would need to first take the Sbahn 1 to the Munich Hauptbahnhof, then a direct train to Salzburg. Trains are quite frequent, no need to buy ticket in advance.

No direct trains but a simple change at Munich East. Plenty of services throughout the day

Just a note that the S8 which ordinarily goes to the Munich Ost station currently has construction on the line and requires taking a bus to bypass the works. The S1 to the Hbh may be faster during this period.

Any idea how long S8 will undergo construction? We’re arriving mid September. Thanks

Just a note, the Bahn website still shows using the S1 all the way to München Ost, and changing to the RE5 there. A more detailed analysis might be warranted, as the S-Bahns (S1 & S8) leave the airport 6 times an hour. At sometimes it might be better to go to the Hbf, but for the fastest connection, they say to take the S1 to Ost.
