How to get there

From arrivals to Marienplatz in 36 minutes

Three steps once you have collected your bags.

01

Find the station

Station beneath the Munich Airport Center.

02

Buy and validate a ticket

Before boarding — a ticket bought but not validated can be fined.

03

Ride to Marienplatz in 36 minutes

36–40 min.

Worth knowing

No first or last train is stated here: the airport says the S8 runs all night, about every 40 minutes between 01:00 and 04:00, but the S8's own timetable limits those 01:00 and 02:00 departures to Friday, Saturday and pre-holiday nights. Expect no train those hours on other nights.

The S1 also serves the airport and is not the same journey: it runs the other way round the city and reaches Hauptbahnhof before Marienplatz. Check which train you are boarding.

The group ticket is valid all day on the entire MVV network, so it keeps paying for itself after you have dropped your bags.
