Disadvantages
IconStressful changeover
I travelled from Mainz to Munich and had to change trains once in Frankfurt. The change was a bit stressful as the times were very tight. I still managed to catch my train. On the positive side, there were no delays and the trains were very comfortable and well equipped. The service was also good, the staff were all polite, friendly and courteous. All in all, a good connection.
