If you think that Berlin's zone system is complex, you haven't seen the public transport in many other cities like Munich which has 6 zones or Japanese cities where trains are operated by different companies.
Berlin's system is rather simple and comparably cheap.
- TulliusCicero 3y agoYeah but these days Japanese trains can all use the suica (and similar) cards to tap in and out, right? You don't actually need to understand the different rail companies or zones or whatever, you just get your one card and put money on it and then tap.
- inferiorhuman 3y agoFor regional, yes, a Passmo, Suica, or whatever card works pretty much everywhere. For Shinkansen service, you still have to buy tickets.
