Elderly couple with VORTEILScard Senior

Since 1 January 2012, the VORTEILScard Senior will also be available to men above the age of 60.

This regulation will be implemented simultaneously in cooperation with the transport associations in Austria, in order to allow a smooth transition for our customers. Over the next ten years, it is planned to lift the age limit for women and men by one year every two years. The discounts on ÖBB tickets based on the ÖBB fare are not affected by this change in the age limit.

For women and men above the age of 60, the VORTEILScard Senior costs 26,90 Euros and is valid for one year after being issued. For senior citizens receiving a compensatory or supplementary allowance, there is the possibility of receiving the VORTEILScard free of charge. In this case, it is valid for a period of five years.
A discount of up to 50% is granted for all ÖBB trains, as well for many private railways (excluding rack railways and special transport arrangements), the ÖBB Postbus and the busses of many public transport associations.

If you are ordering the card for the first time, you will need a photo, as well as a valid photo identification. The order form is available here on our homepage or at the ticket counter.
