7 day ticket

The weekly pass is the best option for occasional frequent travellers. The weekly pass is valid for seven days including the day it is first stamped. You are free to choose the first day of use.

The reduced weekly pass may be used by schoolchildren, trainees, students, and anyone participating in a voluntary, social or ecological year, the Federal Volunteer Service, or a similar social service. The reduced weekly pass may only be used by one person, and is only valid when accompanied by a customer pass. Customer passes are available, free of charge, from any service centre.

Weekly passes at the normal price are transferable.

Period of Validity

A weekly pass is valid on 7 consecutive days including the day it is first used. For example, if it is first used on a Tuesday at 10.05 am, the weekly pass is valid until 12 midnight on the following Monday.

What do I need to bear in mind with reduced rate weekly passes?

The weekly pass at the reduced price is non-transferable. In addition to the weekly pass, your children will need a valid customer pass.

Schoolchildren, apprentices and students, can benefit from the reduced fare. The reduction also applies to the following people:

Validity on special tourist services

There is a special leisure option for weekly pass holders:

If this season ticket is valid in the tariff zone(s) where

  • the Bergbahns in Dresden (Funicular Railway, Suspension Railway),
  • the narrow gauge railways (Radebeul–Radeburg and Weisseritz Valley),
  • the Meissen city tour,
  • the Kirnitzsch Valley Tramway and
  • the Bad Schandau elevator

operate, you may also use those special tourist services.

Validity in 1st class

Weekly passes are only valid for travel in 2nd class. Holders of a normal priced weekly pass may buy an additional weekly pass to use 1st class in local trains.

Options for combining with other tickets

In the VVO region, you can easily combine all tickets. The only exception is the 4-ride ticket for short journeys, whose sections you cannot combine.

Note on validity and stamping of tickets:

Single tickets are valid for an hour longer if they are stamped in the tariff zone for which you already have a day ticket or season pass. If you are travelling on local trains, you should stamp all the tickets you need for your journey before getting on any train at the platform.

If your journey begins in a tram or bus, then stamp the tickets after entering the vehicle. If there is a ticket inspection, please show all your tickets in order to avoid any misunderstanding.

Examples of combination

Example: monthly pass + single trip

You use a monthly pass for the tariff zone Dresden and want to travel to Wehlen in one day? Then buy a single trip for a tariff zone for the onward journey in the tariff zone Pirna. Since you stamp the single ticket in the tariff zone Dresden itself, even though you still have a monthly pass there, it is valid for a longer duration. You then have two hours from the time of stamping to reach Wehlen.

Example: monthly pass + day ticket

You have a monthly pass for both the Radebeul and Dresden tariff zones and want to go hiking in Saxon Switzerland? Then you can additionally buy a day ticket for the Pirna and Bad Schandau tariff zones. Stamp these before boarding the suburban train and you can be mobile throughout the day.

Cycles, cycle trailers and dogs

If you wish to travel with a cycle, cycle trailer or dog on one day we recommend the VVO's cycle day ticket for 1 tariff zone. To travel in two or more tariff zones, please use the cycle day ticket for the entire VVO area.
