Book early and save: Yes
Online bookings open: 6 months ahead of the travel date
When making an online booking, check that you’re looking at booking info for the direct trains* - though it can be cheaper to book this journey if you're happy to change trains.
On the DB Bahn booking site look for journeys that have:
- 0 in the Chg. column
- EC in the Products column.
Use the earlier/later buttons to search for the cheapest ticket prices.
Trains departing at different times can be cheaper than others leaving on the same day- so you may need to look through the day's departures to find the cheapest fares.
---------------------------------------------------------
It can also be particularly worthwhile comparing prices on the national ticket agents for this journey - when the cheapest tickets have sold out on the DB (German railways website), they can still be available on the OBB (Austrian railways wesite) and vice versa.

Reservations are highly recommended for this journey - If you book a First Class ticket on DB your seat(s) will be assigned, but OBB will charge a reservation fee for First class tickets.

Reservations are optional, but reommended if you will be travelling with a 1st or 2nd class rail pass.
