südtirolmobil Flex Pass
One ticket – and all of South Tyrol at your doorstep
südtirolmobil Flex Passes are personalised, annual electronic tickets (smart cards) that can be used on all means of public transport across all of South Tyrol.
The idea is simple: The more kilometres you travel throughout one year, the cheaper your fares get. Fares are calculated per journey and automatically charged whenever you use your pass. You can either pay by direct debit from your bank account (post-paid ticket version) or top up your pass with credit and pay as you go (pre-paid ticket version).
Convenient and flexible – use your südtirolmobil Flex Pass:
- throughout the entire südtirolmobil network and on regional trains all the way to Trento,
- on cross-border train services (Brennero/Brenner – Innsbruck and San Candido/Innichen or Versciaco/Vierschach – Lienz) at the official VVT/ÖBB rate. If you have an ÖBB-Vorteilscard, simply register it in your user account to claim your discount;
- to pay for transporting your bike,
- to pay for transporting a pet and
- to travel on Nightliner bus services.
Please note that Südtirol Passes are not valid on long-distance or high-speed rail services (EC, Freccia, Italo, Railjet etc.).
If you are a resident of the European Union or Switzerland or if you work or study in South Tyrol, you can order your südtirolmobil Flex Pass online provided that you have an Italian tax ID (codice fiscale/Steuernummer).
The cost of a bus or train ride is calculated on the basis of how many kilometres you have accumulated and which one out of five price categories applies: the more you travel, the lower the fare per kilometre in your price category. In other words, as the year passes and you collect mileage, your journeys gradually become cheaper. After a full year has passed since you first activated your südtirolmobil Flex Pass, the clock is reset and you start off once again with the first-level price category.
This is how your fare is calculated:
| Price category | Fare per km | |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | 1 – 1000 km | 12 cents |
| 2 | 1001 – 2000 km | 8 cents |
| 3 | 2001 – 10,000 km | 3 cents |
| 4 | 10,001 – 20,000 km | 2 cents |
| 5 | from 20,001 km | 0 cents |
| Maximum amount per year | 640 EUR |
The minimum fare per journey is equal to 10 km in your respective price category. For connecting bus journeys in all of South Tyrol except Bozen/Bolzano and Meran/Merano, a minimum fare (5 km in your respective price category) will be charged.
Citybus services and urban buses in Bozen/Bolzano and Meran/Merano: All journeys within 60 minutes made in the same fare zone are charged as a single journey.
Maximum amount per day: 15 EUR. All fares per day are capped at 15 EUR, meaning that however many journeys you make in one day. Additional charges apply for cross-border train services (Brenner /Brennero – Innsbruck and Innichen/San Candido – Lienz), Nightliner bus journeys and if you're travelling with pets or a bike.
