In any case, the new programme of the Austrian Federal Railways aims to promote rail travel. Customers who join the<strong> \u00d6BB loyalty programme<\/strong> can start collecting points immediately.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>For every euro spent, customers receive one VorZUG point.<\/strong> on your \u00d6BB account for almost all tickets, whether standard, network or season tickets. The programme also applies to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.voyages-d-affaires.com\/en\/vienne-capitale-trains-nuit-20240610.html\/\"><strong>Nightjet night trains<\/strong><\/a>. Reservations, upgrades, lounge access and insurance are also rewarded.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Once you have accumulated 100 VorZUG points<\/strong>participants can claim a <strong>first award<\/strong>. This could be a free seat reservation, a hot drink in the on-board restaurant, a \u20ac5 \u00d6BB voucher for one journey or a \u20ac10 \"wegfinder\" voucher. The latter is a solution offered to business travellers for post-transportation by private transport (taxi, electric scooter, for example).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>From 800 VorZUG points accumulated over the year<\/strong>The programme gives access to <strong>Goldschiene\" frequent flyer status<\/strong>. Beneficiaries then enjoy additional benefits such as free access to the lounge (4 times a year), a 1st class birthday upgrade and access to privileged competitions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Unfortunately, for the time being, <strong>VorZUG does not offer a free ticket bonus<\/strong> in exchange for points. This is the opposite of the SNCF or DB loyalty programmes!
