If my train is cancelled and replaced, must I take the indicated replacement train when I have a Sparpreis ticket?

score:9

Accepted answer

Unfortunately, Deutsche Bahn has never given a really official opinion about this, as far as I know. Semi-official opinions differ:

You can choose freely

You need to use the replacement train.

My personal opinion is that you are allowed to choose freely, but that is only my opinion. I have done just this and I was fine.

In practice it would be best to go to a DB information or travel center in advance and ask them to stamp your ticket with "Zugbindung aufgehoben". If you get the stamp, you are golden.
