Unfortunately, it’s impossible to answer this question right away. The ticket prices are formed, depending on several vital factors, such as which class you prefer for the journey, where you buy your tickets, and whether you need a “last-minute” ticket or not. As a rule, be prepared to pay something in the range of 65-100 USD per ticket.

Planning a roundtrip is always more challenging, as you need to make sure that the Munich to Salzburg train schedule works for you and that the tickets for both dates are still available. Allowing Rail Ninja to help you organize the train tickets for your trip, you avoid hours of research for clarifying details. All you need to get your tickets is a couple of minutes to select your travel dates, fill out several forms, and “voila”! The cost of your tickets depends on the same factors as mentioned above (chosen class, proximity to the departure date, availability, among others), thus, round trip tickets for this route will cost something around 130 - 250 USD per person.

Sadly, there is no direct Munich Airport to Salzburg train. If you’ve decided to use the railway for your travel, first you need to catch a train going from the Munich Flughafen Airport Terminal to the Muenchen Ost Station that’s set in the city center, offering departures every 20 minutes. Upon arrival, you can board a bullet train, going straight to Salzburg, such trains leave the Muenchen Ost every hour.
