Transportation within the city of Dresden is quite practical and cheap. The train, trams, and buses make up the three main methods of transportation in the city. This modern public transportation system almost entirely removes the need for taxis and rental car services. Thanks to this well-developed system it is very easy to get to the airport directly from the city center. It takes about 15-20 minutes to get to the airport from the city center using any method of transportation. There are automated ticket machines throughout the city that are very convenient and easy to use. It only takes a few minutes to get your tickets from these machines. You can use these tickets jointly on the bus and the tram.
Train
There are two train stations in Dresden, the Dresden Mitte Station and Dresden Hauptbahnhof (main station). Trains in Dresden are referred to as the S-Bahn. The S-Bahn line S2 links Dresden Central Station and Dresden Neustadt with Dresden Airport. Line S1 operates between Meissen- Schöna, passing through Pirna, line S2 operates between Dresden Hauptbahnhof (passing through the city center) – Pirna and Dresden Airport, and line S3 operates between Dresden Hauptbahnhof-Tharandt and Freiberg.
Bus
When it comes to urban transportation, buses are the second most popular method after trams. There are many different routes that buses follow throughout the city. Bus number 94 passes the train station in Mitte. If you take this bus to Mitte you can transfer to a tram or train to the airport.

Both buses depart from different locations in the city but they both pass through Dresen Airport. Bus number 80 passes through the city center. The name of the company that runs the bus network in the city is called Stadtbus. There are many different bus lines, starting at number 61,62, 63 and continuing up until 100.
There are a total of 29 different bus routes in Dresden. The ticket you purchase can also be used on the tram, which makes transferring between vehicles very convenient.
Tram
The tram network in Dresden dates back to the 19th century. In fact there is a historic museum dedicated to the history of the tram network in the city. The museum has 37 trams on display that date back to 1902-1931. Since then providing public transportation in the city by tram has become an integral part of the culture. Therefore, trams are the most valuable and preferred means of transportation in the city, particularly among the locals. The tram stops are spread throughout the city and they are quite modern and comfortable.
Dresden features a common ticket system for buses and trams and ticket prices are quite cheap. Ticket prices vary slight from region to region.

The price for a 1.5 hour ticket in Zone 2 is 3.80 euros. Finally, the price for a 2-hour ticket in Zone 3 is 5.60 euros. A day ticket costs 8 euros for Zone 1, and 13 euros for Zone 2.
