Monthly pass subscription 1. class Regional tariff
If you travel regularly throughout the year on rail routes in the counties around the Hanover region and want to travel comfortably in 1. class, the Monthly pass subscription 1. class Regional tariff is worthwhile. With it, you not only enjoy free travel on suburban and many regional trains – the buses and trains in the GVH tariff area are also at your disposal. For the 1. class in the Regional tariff there are uniform surcharges of 60,20 euros (one to three zones) and 87 euros (from 01.01.2024 93,50 euros) (four to six zones). If you regularly travel on local and regional transport, the Deutschland ticket, which is valid throughout Germany and costs 49 euros per month, may also be worthwhile for you.

The Subscription start pass is valid from midnight of the first day of validity until 05:00 a.m. of the last day of validity. The price depends on how many days must be bridged until the subscription starts. For each day only 1/30 of the future monthly subscription price will be charged.
