The hard part

Planning a trip turns into hours of comparing.

Is 35 min enough for this transfer?Do I need to change stations?Is saving €30 worth another transfer?What is better — train or bus?What if the first train is delayed?Which option is actually the best?Is this connection even safe?Is the cheaper one worth six extra hours?

Scoring

Every route has trade-offs. We make them visible.

One score brings together time, price, transfer safety and comfort — so you can see why one route beats another. Time and price matter most, then how safe the changes are, then comfort; each route is scored against the others found for the same trip.

Time & price efficiency

How good the trade of hours for money is versus the alternatives.

Transfer safety

How much time each change leaves once you have crossed to the next stop.

Comfort

Fewer changes, no night departures, no long coach rides, no moves between stations.

Transfer intelligence

We check the connections so you don't have to.

Every connection is scored on real transfer times and station complexity — so you only see the ones you can actually make.

Same or different station — we tell you which, up front.

How to get across — walk, transport or taxi, with the time and the price.

Safe or tight — and how likely you are to make it.

Clearly unsafe connections are dropped entirely — you never even see them.
