The new "D-Ticket JugendBW" is the low-cost Deutschland-Ticket. It is aimed, among others, at young adults under the age of 27, who are studying, in apprenticeship or doing voluntary service. An important requirement is that the person must live in Baden-Württemberg. Alternatively, the person's school or college must be in Baden-Württemberg.
You find more information about the "Deutschland-Ticket JugendBW" in the infobox.
The Deutschland-Ticket is only available as a subscription, i.e. not as a single monthly ticket. The subscription can be cancelled on a monthly basis. The ticket is personal, i.e. non-transferable. The ticket is available at the customer centers of the transport associations. As a rule, the ticket is sold via the Internet portals of the transport associations. Deutsche Bahn sells the ticket online, via its app and in DB travel centers.
