ReviewsReviews for the rail journey from Frankfurt am Main to Leipzig

The customer opinion was acquired via Cimenio. Cimenio incentivises its users for giving an honest opinion and proving the booking with a photo of the travel ticket.

Pro

Travel relaxed without changing trains

Contra

Seats comfortable

Seats are comfortable. In certain compartments you can even charge your cell phone for free, the train offers free Wi-Fi. This stops constantly. I went from Aschaffenburg to Frankfurt and from Frankfurt to Leipzig. All employees were also super friendly and had understanding for the situation. You are notified 2 weeks in advance if there is a change in travel. Restrooms were fine. Train broke down, still was able to choose another train to reach my destination. The price was not too expensive due to the Super Sparpreis. The only flaw: you can't cancel this ticket.

Pro

Seat comform

Fast movement

Free internet connection

Both the cleanliness, the staff and the wifi equipment was of great quality. The train brought us on time to our destination and the price-performance ratio, is unbeatable if booked in time. Surprising was that both on the Internet and in the DB app an unusually high occupancy was announced, this is then, however, not arrived and we had a seat without seat reservation anyway.
