<h1>More trains from Dresden: Direct to Hamburg, Prague and Vienna!</h1>

The Czech Railways (ČD) has announced exciting new features for travelers from Dresden. From the timetable change in 2026, connections to Hamburg, Prague, Vienna and even Copenhagen will be significantly improved. This is not only good news for commuters, but also for travelers who would like to take a quick trip. As the Dresden Latest News report, the new concept offers two trains daily from Prague to Copenhagen with stops in Dresden at 9 a.m. and 1 p.m. This innovation will not only increase comfort, but also significantly reduce travel time, as the new ComfortJets reach speeds of up to 230 km/h.

The connection to Copenhagen will start in May 2024, as the route between Berlin and Hamburg is currently closed. This could be a real highlight for frequent travelers. There will also be a third connection to Copenhagen in the summer months. Czech Railways is also planning for all long-distance trains from Prague to travel to Hamburg in the future, which will further increase the number of direct connections from Dresden to Hamburg.

Extended offers to Vienna and Graz

Another interesting aspect is the return of daytime connections from Berlin via Dresden to Vienna and Graz, which will be reintroduced in December 2023. From this point on there will also be a late afternoon train from Dresden to Vienna. However, these trains no longer stop at the main train station in Prague, but only in Praha-Holešovice, which could make the travel flow even more efficient.

A new evening train from Prague to Dresden will also depart at 8:45 p.m. This is a great way to end the day in the Czech capital and be back in Dresden late in the evening. Deutsche Bahn will announce further details about long-distance transport offers by late summer, although connections to Germany are currently still subject to change in the Czech Railways' draft timetable.

Ticket prices and booking options

If you are curious, you can also find out about the ticket prices. At the Trainline You'll discover that European train ticket prices are usually cheaper if booked in advance. This is particularly true for long- and medium-distance trains, while short-distance regional trains are often only available at the station.

Depending on the train operator, the booking windows open between three and six months in advance, so it's definitely worth planning well in advance. The Trainline app also makes it easy to purchase mobile tickets, which can be conveniently presented with a QR code. This could make traveling in Europe a real pleasure for all travel fans.

Overall, the new planning of the Czech railways from Dresden promises not only a larger selection of attractive connections, but also an optimal travel combination for everyone who would like to travel quickly to a new city. So, keep your head up and pack your bags – the new trips are waiting!
