Where these numbers come from

Derived from service area No carrier record names this exact pair. The operators listed publish a service area covering both places at a distance their mode plausibly carries people, which is evidence that the corridor is served and not evidence of a specific service. Pages state which, because presenting the two as the same thing would be dishonest.

Schedules, seat counts and fares are generated by our own model until the supplier contracts are signed. Places, coordinates, operators, which operator serves which pair, and every distance are real. We would rather say that on every page than let a modeled number pass for a filed one.

Every figure above was computed for Budapest to Brno on September 9, 2026: 300 km of route against 261 km in a straight line, 14 services a day, 5 operators, a cheapest fare of €15.58, and 2h 50m door to door on the fastest mode. The return direction is computed separately and its numbers are not these numbers.

Being on the water gives Brno a set of days out that do not start at a station. We do not sell those either.
