Der neue Nightjet – Von Hamburg nach Wien im Nachtzug der ÖBB | ARD Reisen

Noch mehr coole Touren mit dem Zug, wie z.B. Alexandra Kosmas Trip per Interrail nach Salzburg, findet ihr in der ARD Mediathek: https://1.ard.de/reisen-interrail-salzburg-1?yt=d

Der neue Nightjet der ÖBB ist seit Anfang Dezember 2023 am Start und Reporter Patrick Wira ist für uns sofort wieder in den Zug gestiegen. Er testet die Fahrt von Hamburg nach Wien und schläft in einer der neuen Mini-Cabins, einer schmalen Einzelkabine zum kleinen Preis, besucht das Luxus-Schlafwagenabteil mit eigener Dusche und spricht mit anderen Zugreisenden über ihre Erfahrungen im 4er-Abteil. Aber es gibt auch Kritik: Vor allem an dem neuen dynamische Preissystem, das zu starken Preissteigerungen führen kann. Reporter Patrick Wira gibt Antworten auf die Fragen wie teuer so eine Reise im Nachtzug jetzt wirklich ist und ob die technischen Neuerungen und Features halten, was sie versprechen.

“Im neuen Nachtzug von Hamburg nach Wien” ist ein Film von Patrick Wira. Dieser Film wurde im Dezember 2023 im Auftrag des WDR produziert. Alle Aussagen und Fakten entsprechen dem damaligen Stand und wurden seitdem nicht aktualisiert.

Hey, I’m Patrick and I really enjoy taking the night train. We’re currently here in Hamburg Altona and the new night train has been running from here to Austria for a little over a week and I’m totally hyped that we’re going to take a look at it now The new nightjets of the Austrian Federal Railways promise the latest technology the greatest possible comfort and privacy. In the first week there were mainly complaints about cancellations and delays. I would therefore say I’ll take a look at it myself. The route is the same as in the let

JR shortly before 8 a.m In the evening the train starts in Hamburg altuna and travels via Hanover and Würzburg to Nuremberg near Passau across the border to Linz until it reaches Vienna shortly after 9 a.m. 33 here this is the miniabin the new trains consist

Of two sleeping cars three couchette cars and a seated car A total of around 250 people in a multifunctional car can travel on the new night train, significantly less than on the old one. There you go, there’s your ky card and open the

Shoe compartment once, yes, okay, that’s mine, practically a key card for everything at Hamburg Central Station, the train is filling up, the board staff now checks the tickets and opens the cabins. Then I have time to stow everything away in my own pretty deep closet, my

Backpack and the big one Jacket fits in well I’m curious and have to try it out for a moment Here’s the opening Here the cushion is longer, higher The cabins are connected to each other by a lockable sliding door So you can come into contact pretty easily So I’ve now found my miniabin

Number 33 and Lina is sitting right next to me. Lina is driving to Regensburg and has already taken the night train in exactly this cabin, almost exactly okay and you have now been to Hamburg for work. Would you say that there is an option for you

To take the night train again Definitely take it because the alternative would actually be to either be on the road all day during the day or to fly. Definitely a good option. While we sit and talk for a while, the train staff checks the tickets and takes breakfast requests, thanks for

Your breakfast, please A te black time to look at the rest of the couchette. In the women’s four-person compartment, Valerie and Christiane also had a brief opportunity to get to know each other and the compartment. You can see that the men’s toilet is occupied,

Which is actually practical. I have to say that there is still a new control panel next to it something new everywhere there is Wi-Fi who I just met on the platform and you said you had already traveled a few days ago exactly exactly a week ago you can

Tell me what it was like so you are also in a four-person compartment Dangers exactly exactly exactly yes so we were a bit surprised by the fact that entry is only with a card, we didn’t overestimate it at all it was a bit difficult at the beginning yes and the size

Surprised us a bit because they are significantly narrower than the original ones ÖBB couchette line We also talked about how you actually fit in here if you ‘re not a 70 tall but maybe a little longer and here when you turn around at night you’re

Immediately so that’s the beds have become a lot narrower in my opinion At least I hope I don’t have to charge my cell phone, which was also very funny by the way,

It doesn’t fit in there at all. Oh Jan, when you put it in long ago, the two of them ask me if I want to try it out too. Yes, I’ll take it with me. I’ll take my shoes off for a moment off then son I’m

ESPN so that’s your your bed yes exactly I think I read it’s a little shorter but maybe not take a look Attention officially the beds here are about 60 cm wide and 1.90 m long so I’ll really pass exactly in so it’s actually

About 1 cm no I would say I’ll pass but I couldn’t take my feet out now but they’re stretched out further into the next car here in the multifunctional car there are seats and There are six bicycle parking spaces, which you can open here and move.

You have to hook your bike up, but you definitely have to book a ticket in advance. You can of course also see from this device that the whole thing here is an Austrian Federal Railway car. You can put your skis in here like that Simply ski in and

Off into the [Music] mountains in the multifunctional car there is also the barrier-free compartment with appropriate [Music] equipment. Now you go to where you as a traveler have the most space, the [Music] sleeping car. I now have the opportunity here To take a look at the absolute top class,

That is the Comfort Plus class and in addition to the bathroom, like in the other sleeping car, it also has its own shower. I read online that this shower is said to be one of the best night train showers there is, so there is a good hot water jet.

I test the whole thing for a short time, well, it takes a while, well, again now, yes, so it’s definitely not even set to extreme heat. I scarf a little bit warmer for a moment and it’s hot straight away, so that’s really something I’ve never

Experienced on a night train before the sleeping car comfort category without plus is completely normal two beds that are positioned sideways and a little less space than the plus category but honestly still [music] sufficient so bathing in the comfort category looks like the only difference is not a separate

Shower but this shower head which you can then shower over the toilet. The prices for the night train start from €35 for the seats, the couchette cars and minicabin from €55, the sleeping car alone costs from €200, the plus category at least €260 alone, but all

Prices can also be significantly higher Increased prices and technical problems on the first trips Time for a conversation with the press spokesman We certainly have to start by talking about what’s not going so well, so there were delays, there were even cancellations, so there were teething problems in the first week

Sure, we’ve noticed that too, and we’re sorry for the passengers. Cancellations and delays, but I think we’re on the right track. We’ve actually got that right now. Today’s train is on time. I think that’s fine. The newly introduced pricing system is online to criticism because tickets are sometimes significantly more expensive. Night trains

Are extremely cost-intensive and we travel with partners and it was also important for our partner railways that we reach a different and higher price level, but what is important is that the new dynamic pricing system is very flexible, that is, if I arrive on time If I book early,

It can even be cheaper than it used to be, but we also say clearly on days when we are really heavily booked before Christmas and Easter during the holiday periods when everyone wants to travel and the train could be filled three times The price is also significantly

Higher just before midnight it’s time to go to bed [music] [music] good night, I’ve now changed and made up the bed, it’s like a sleeping bag you can put around yourself, this is what it looks like when I’m in the cabin I’m sitting so I definitely still have enough

Room upstairs. I’m about 19 so it fits quite well and yes I think I’m ready to go to sleep. I can’t talk so loudly because you seem to hear quite a lot from the neighboring cabin, that’s the way it is I can make it brighter on a control panel or use another

Light . GZ is pretty loud , you can probably hear it in the next cabin too But yes, it went quite well, so I slept without the ear plugs to test how quiet it was and I found it really surprisingly quiet. I also liked the size, so you had to get

Used to it a bit at first, but it was fine for guests who got out earlier get your breakfast, I’ll go out again towards the couchette car. On the way there, Valerie’s night train was stranded in the middle of the route at 3 a.m., everything’s fine, everything’s fine, it’s fine

Out today your train arrived yes on time really exactly yes I’m happy I’m happy I slept well so this time I’m positively surprised I’d try out one of these mini cabins Have you looked at them I

Don’t think mini cabins are for me now I think it would be too cramped for me, it would be interesting to try it out, but I think it would be too much for 12 hours. We were lucky that no one was here

In the fourth, I wouldn’t have had anywhere to put my backpack, I wouldn’t have been able to put my jacket anywhere when breakfast you don’t know where to go again, you don’t know how to take it either because you can’t sit down upstairs, you can’t even change your clothes,

You can’t do anything because the blanket is here, which means you can’t do anything and I don’t understand how It’s a mystery to me that it’s planned where you’re actually supposed to put your things, oh and what else I have up here when you’re next to

You when there’s a brake, it’s about this height, it’s not a sensible safeguard for people who might be afraid So if I drive again, which I will definitely do, then I will secure a lower bed and if that doesn’t work then [music] no thanks, great, yes, thank you, a

Little bit of arranging now, just a minute with jam in the sleeping car, that’s all A little more luxurious I can lean back a bit so breakfast is included in the price Wooden cutlery is wrapped in paper Overall not too much packing mill

About half an hour to Vienna I’m relaxing and enjoying my [music] tea Breakfast is ready Then you can fold up the table like this and you can also move it if you want. It has a small mirror. I really like the contactless charging option here on my cell phone and

I particularly like the minicabin. Every small mini cabin has its own window so that you don’t have to worry about yourself feels like someone in the can I now want to know how others

Find the mini cabins I have now paid 75 € really when did you book I have exactly these two months deadline that you can basically on September 19th 19th you can then book for December 19th and I did that and then

Tasted it the day later, okay, well then I’ll be in Vienna the day before, it’s also cool and that’s unbeatable for 75 € and that’s it. Everything is pretty well thought out with the table and with that The whole thing, I think, it all really made a bit of a slab, the

One with this door that folds, that’s exactly how it slides sometimes and the clatter is so precise. I changed direction at some point, my head was lying vi and so I turned around again yes it’s really complaining V level there is a small breakfast is also

Quite okay and I don’t know so the Deutsche Bahn can copy it and so it’s more or less on time so on time so shortly before arrival the bedding [music] is quickly collected thank you yes I have it GEF bye, that was a night in the new nightstad of the Austrian Federal Railways.

Personally, I really liked it, especially the mini cabins are really an innovation that is really good for night train traffic in Europe if the prices stay that way and there are still these little mistakes has seen it be adapted then I am very confident [Music]
