Since December 2023, the NightJets of the new generation have been in operation. The ÖBB's new night trains are so popular that people are willing to take detours just to enjoy travelling in them. By now, the new NightJets are running on various routes—time for an update.
As of January 2025, the new NightJets operate on the following routes:
ÖBB will receive 33 new NightJet trains by the end of 2025. These are set to operate in Austria, Italy, Switzerland, Germany, and the Netherlands.
The deployment of the new NightJets also positively impacts countries and routes where the new trains are not in service: ÖBB is modernizing some of the older, released rolling stock (keyword: NightJet Upgrade) and deploying it on other routes.
