Ich war im Sept. 2023 zweimal innerhalb von 14 Tagen in Budapest!
Zuerst im Budapester Zoo und dann bin ich 3 U-Bahnlinien abgefahren.
Nach Budapest bin ich 1x mit dem RJ und mit der MAV gefahren,
retour nur mit der MAV, weil lustiger und bequemer 😄

This Railjet also has a regular stop in my hometown of Salzburg. I take it 3-4 times a year between Salzburg and Bregenz to visit a friend. I also take Railjets from Salzburg to Munich visiting my family in Leipzig, Germany

I will travel from Budapest to Vienna by train. I bought the tickets from the OBB app. I wonder if it is necessary to validate
