I am trying to buy a train ticket for my wife and myself this June from Munich to Frankfurt Airport. If I go to the Rail Europe website, my tickets will cost $160 per person in 2nd class. However, if I go to bahn.com, I can buy 1st class tickets for approximately $130 per person. Whenever I see a deal like that, I get suspicious. Should I here? Has anyone bought tickets on bahn.com. Or should I just wait until I get there?

Any experience or advise is appreciated.

Ken,

I have no first hand experience in Germany on the trains. However I was with a coworker that grabbed a train from Nuremburg to Berlin and it was a very simple and was not confusing. We stood in line maybe 2 minutes and were done.
Unfortunately I had to go to the airport and head home.

I have used the trains extensively in the Netherlands, Italy, and England and have always waited till I got there.

I always do my homework before hand so I know times, approx. cost etc... but always bought once I arrived.
