Trying to plan a train from Stuttgart to Esslingen.
I looked at int.bahn.de - they don't display any train schedule
I also looked at https://www.vvs.de/ - however, it won't let me purchase tickets for December...
Is there a dedicated app or web platform where I can purchase the tickets to Esslingen??
thank you..
Why not just buying at day of travel? It is just regional public transport / S-Bahn. So VVS app is a good decision.
Its just a local commuter train. You can buy a ticket out of the vending machine at the station.
You don't say where in Pennsylvania you are from, but if south east, would you buy have to buy a SEPTA ticket from Philadelphia to Radnor a month in advance?
The site int.bahn.de does show a schedule. I do not understand why this would not work for you.
However, yes, this is trivial mass transit. Just buy your ticket at the station or using the VVS app at the moment of travel itself.
Note that public transit is integrated (as is common in Germany) and thus your ticket is good for all public transit, so from anywhere in Stuttgart to anywhere in Esslingen, by any mode of public transit. And a day ticket is about the same price is to single tickets. So probably best to just buy a day ticket for zones 1 and 2, and you are free to travel as much as you like in those zones.
Thanks for the tips
