Children under the age of 6 travel for free. You can always take as many as you like with you – provided you yourself are over 6.
Some IsarCards allow you to take children aged between 6 and 14 with you. If you have a valid weekly or monthly IsarCard, an IsarCard9Uhr or an IsarCardJob, you can take children aged between 6 and 14 with you free of charge Monday to Friday after 9 am, and at any time on non-working days. You can take as many of your own children and grandchildren with you as you like (ID required); otherwise there is a maximum limit of three children.
The Group Day Tickets basically permit 5 adults to travel on the same ticket – with children counting as half an adult.
Your dog rides for free - if you have a valid MVV ticket or a Deutschlandticket.
Each additional dog requires a children’s ticket if not travelling in a basket or a bag.
The animal must be kept on a leash and wear a muzzle in all vehicles and in S-Bahn (urban rail) and U-Bahn (underground) stations if it could be a risk to other passengers.
Attack dogs are excluded from travelling on vehicles.
