Getting from Linz Airport to Passau in Germany by train is a much more budget-friendly alternative to taking an airport taxi, especially for smaller groups and solo travellers. The railway network in Austria is very extended, connecting Linz to neighbouring cities, including Passau in Germany, but there is no direct connection from the airport; you’ll need to get from Linz Airport to Linz Hbf first, which you can easily do by taking bus line 601 from the airport. From there, there is a direct connection to Passau by train. The total trip takes about 1 hour and 30 minutes and the average fare is €24.50 per traveller.
