Where can I find the timetable for S1/S8 train to Munich Airport?

Question

I'm trying to plan a flight from Munich to London and have some concerns about the S-Bahn lines (S1 and S8). I can get a good deal on a flight that departs at 07:00, but i'm not 100% positive the S1 or S8 trains run from Munich center to the airport that early in the morning. I'm wondering if these trains run at say 04:30?

The s-bahn website shows that the trains run pretty much 24/7, but i've read elsewhere that they begin running at 06:00. Just want to know for sure before I book the flight!

Answer 1

Look at the web www.bahn.de, you find there what you need.

Answer 2

Perhaps this will help you, but the Bavarians are a little bit weird, you have to play a little bit to understand :-).

Since the S-Bahn connections are operated by Deutsche Bahn you can use their web site: http://www.bahn.de/international/view/en... (engisch version)

To get your connection enter "Munich Hbf" (which is pretty centric) to "Munich Airport". Remember, when choosing a date the german date format is day/month/year.

I checked it for you and this is what i get:

München Hbf (lower ground) --> Munich Airport "Franz-Josef Strauss" Th, 17.01.08  dep 04:25am  arr 5:06am  via S1

So you are good to go!

BTW: Why don't you choose a hotel next to the airport the night prior to departure? Landgasthof Schweigers (google for it) for instance cost you approx 60-70 Euro including transfer to terminals.
