Slightly unpunctual

The train ride from Passau to Vienna was extremely pleasant. The train was fast, modern and very comfortable. The seats offered, in my opinion, enough space and were ergonomically very suitable. Only the departure was a little unpunctual, but this did not have a major impact on the overall positive travel experience. The route also offered beautiful landscapes. Really highly recommended!
