During the sports holiday weeks, it offers Scandinavian travelers a direct connection from Malm\u00f6 to popular Zell am See and other ski resorts, creating both a sustainable and convenient way to get to Austria for a ski trip with friends or family.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Starting today, Sn\u00e4llt\u00e5get offers a direct line on the historic connection between Scandinavia and Austria for the first time, with destinations at seven different stations such as Zell am See and Salzburg. This was celebrated today with a festive opening ceremony at Malm\u00f6 C, where the Marketing Director of SalzburgerLand Tourismus, Yvonne Rosenstatter, presented a giant train ticket to Marco Andersson, Deputy Business Manager at Sn\u00e4llt\u00e5get, as a symbol of the train connection that will now unite Scandinavia and SalzburgerLand.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>\u201dWe are seeing a lot of interest in sustainable travel for ski trips to Austria. The night train is a perfect way to travel \u2013 passengers can socialize in the evening, eat well in the restaurant car, play games and enjoy the journey in their compartments before it is time to curl up and get a good night\u2019s sleep. In the morning you wake up in a beautiful and snowy alpine landscape \u2013 ready to hit the slopes.\u201d<\/em>, says&nbsp;<strong>Marco Andersson, Deputy Business Manager for Sn\u00e4llt\u00e5get<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The express train departs to Austria once a week during weeks 5-11 from 28 January to 18 March. It covers both the Swedish and Danish sports holidays, and the departures have been scheduled so that passengers can book accommodation for a week Saturday-Saturday in the Alps. During week 9, when it is sports holidays in Stockholm, the train runs directly from there and during the other weeks you can buy connecting tickets from various Swedish towns to Malm\u00f6. By changing trains or transferring, it is also easy to get on to a long list of other ski resorts, including Obertauern, St. Johann in Salzburg and the large winter sports area Skicircus Saalbach Hinterglemm Leogang Fieberbrunn.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The train can carry up to 600 passengers and despite the pandemic, many of the departures are already fully booked. The focus is on offering a climate-smart journey with excellent comfort for passengers. The fast train uses renewable electricity through hydro, wind and solar power, which means that a round trip between Malm\u00f6 and Zell am See only generates emissions of as little as 1.2 kg of CO2 per passenger.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201d<em>We are very pleased about Sn\u00e4llt\u00e5get&#039;s new direct line between Scandinavia and family-friendly SalzburgerLand, which makes it easier for more Swedes and Danes to experience our ski destinations, with over 2000 kilometers of slopes in all levels of difficulty. SalzburgerLand aims to become one of the most sustainable tourist destinations and this new direct train is an important step in the right direction, giving our guests the opportunity to reduce their CO2 footprint<\/em>\u201d&quot;, says&nbsp;<strong>Yvonne Rosenstatter, Marketing Manager at SalzburgerLand Tourismus<\/strong>.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Den 28 januari avgick Sn\u00e4llt\u00e5get s\u00f6derut p\u00e5 sin jungfruf\u00e4rd till de \u00f6sterrikiska Alperna, efter en festlig invigningsceremoni p\u00e5 Malm\u00f6 C.
