Overall, the train journey was pleasant, even though there was unfortunately a delay. The on-board bistro deserves a particularly positive mention: the selection was good, the food fresh and the staff friendly. The seats were also comfortable and clean - it was a relaxed journey. The only downside was the delay, which unfortunately disrupted the timetable somewhat. Nevertheless, the stay on the train was positive overall thanks to the good service and comfort.

We used the train connection between Berlin and Erfurt to return from our holiday. Unfortunately, the journey was very unrelaxing. The train left Berlin late and arrived in Erfurt even later (approx. 1.5 hours). The train was also very noisy and you could hardly close your eyes. The staff tried to de-escalate everything as best they could, but unfortunately the situation on the train remained tense. A positive aspect of this connection was the cleanliness of the train.

I was on my way to my 3-day trip and the outward journey by train was really pleasant. I really liked the fact that the train was on time and I didn't have to change trains. My seat was comfortable, with plenty of legroom and the wifi was stable throughout the journey. The toilets were clean, which I found very pleasant. There was even an on-board bistro where I grabbed a coffee. The service was friendly and helpful. A plus point was that I could charge my mobile phone at a power socket. Really great for the price!

IconIt got a bit loud from time to time
Overall, the journey from Berlin to Erfurt was pleasant and mostly quiet. The train was clean, the seats were comfortable and there was enough space for a relaxed journey. I found it particularly positive that the route is scenic, especially after Leipzig it becomes really idyllic. Punctuality also proved to be a positive factor in my case, as the train arrived almost on time. Less pleasant, however, was the fact that the carriage was quite full and it was therefore a little noisy in some places.

Overall, the journey was pleasant and calm. The driver drove carefully and smoothly, which made me feel safe. I found it particularly positive that everything was clean and there was comfortable seating. The background music was also pleasant and at an appropriate volume. Less positive for me was that there was no air conditioning and that in warm weather there was quickly a certain oppressiveness in the air.

I was able to relax during the pleasant train journey. The seats are comfortable and offer enough space, even for luggage. The wifi was reliable, which allowed me to work without any difficulties. Unfortunately, the volume in the carriage was a bit annoying during the middle of the journey, as some passengers were talking loudly on their phones. Nevertheless, the train staff were friendly and the cleanliness of the train was very good. The view from the window was nice and the journey was generally relaxing.

I travelled from Berlin to Erfurt to visit friends and explore the city. The FlixTrain connection was one of the cheapest options and I chose it because of the good price and the direct connection. I liked the low price and that there was free wifi and power sockets, which made the journey comfortable. The seats were also okay for the price, although a little hard on longer journeys. Unfortunately, the train was about 15 minutes late, which was a bit inconvenient, but still within reason. One disadvantage was that there were no drinks or snacks on the train, so you should take something with you beforehand. Overall, I found the price-performance ratio very good and would use FlixTrain again for this route.

Overall, the train journey was pleasant and reliable. The train arrived on time, the connection was direct and there were no changes, which made the journey much more relaxed. I particularly liked the cleanliness of the carriage. Seats, floors and tables were in good condition. The seating comfort was absolutely adequate for the duration of the journey, even if the backrest was a little stiff. It was a bit of a shame that the information display in the coach didn't work during the journey, which meant I had to keep an eye on the intermediate stops. Nevertheless, a solid connection that I would happily use again.

The journey by train from Berlin to Erfurt is much faster than by car. There is no need to change trains. So if you book long-term, the price-performance ratio is good. If you book at short notice, the tickets are unfortunately very expensive. The train was 20 minutes late and very full, but clean. I cannot judge the service, as there was not even a ticket control. The toilet and the wifi worked.

I like that you just sit on the train and don't have to do anything and just enjoy the ride. You have your own little table at each seat, plenty of space, a power socket and wifi throughout the train. In addition, everything is clean, including the toilets. The staff are also always nice and helpful. Everything is very pleasant. Unfortunately, there are often delays or the trains are cancelled altogether. In the end, it's still good value for money.

My journey from Berlin to Erfurt could not have been better. The train made a very modern impression on me and all the technical equipment, such as the wifi or the power sockets, worked perfectly. The train was relatively empty and I had enough space at my seat to work. I bought a sandwich from the on-board bistro during the train ride and was absolutely thrilled with the price-performance ratio. The train staff saw my comfort check in and I didn't have to show my ticket again. We arrived on time and the time on the train really flew by. The toilets were very clean and the dustbins were emptied.
