My train ticket from Frankfurt Airport to Berlin was really cool! The staff were really friendly and the train was clean and tidy. The price was really fair and didn't put too much strain on my wallet. But, here comes the "but", the internet on the train was unfortunately pretty weak. That was a bit annoying, especially if you want to work or be online while travelling. Still, if you like good service, cleanliness and a cheap price and can put up with the weak internet, this train ticket is a good choice. I would use it again.

The train journey on the Deutsche Bahn ICE from Frankfurt Airport to Berlin takes 4 hours and 30 minutes. As with many of the ICE trains, the journey is very pleasant and the wifi works. You can work well and in peace on this route. If you book this route early, the price is unbeatably cheap, so the question of travelling by bus does not arise at all. As the trains run frequently, an ICE cancellation is not quite so tragic.

The train journey from Frankfurt am Main Hauptbahnhof to Berlin. Hauptbahnhof went smoothly and without any problems. I had a voucher, so the price was very good for this journey. I think the connection from Frankfurt to Berlin is great, as it is relatively short and you can travel through without changing trains. As in every ICE, there was an on-board bistro, wifi and also power sockets so that I could work there. The staff and cleanliness were okay.
