The discounted version of the “Deutschlandticket” public transport pass for university students will be launched at the beginning of the 2023/24 winter semester: For only €29 per month, students who are studying at a higher education institution in Bavaria will be able to travel on local and regional public transport throughout Germany. Students who are studying in Würzburg, Schweinfurt or Bamberg, who already pay for a regional semester ticket, pay even less: They can upgrade their semester tickets and have the amount paid for them deducted from the €29. The digital subscription can be cancelled on a monthly basis and can be used by students from 1 October onwards.
