Buying train tickets from Innsbruk on a Saturday
 
We are travelling from Innsbruk to Kitzbuhel on Saturday March 3rd with 2 large suitcases and 2 pairs of skis.

Should I somehow buy these tickets early because it's a Saturday or just do it on the day at the station? It may be at the end of a holiday period in Austria.
Anyone who can help with the hol period?

Saturday or no saturday - you can buy your tickets 24/7 from a ticket machine, even if the counters are closed (which probably won't be the case in a big hub station like Salzburg)

>or just do it on the day at the station? It may be at the end of a holiday period in Austria.

I am not sure - but even if it is, reserving your seats in advance won't be possible since most of the trains to Kitzbühel are local ones.

This is a 1hr train ride on a regional train, with direct trains departing every 2hrs. Tickets are good on any train. Simply buy a ticket at the vendo or ticket counter and hop on the next train.

Hi A,

If you have any facility with German, you can buy your tickets online at www.oebb.at
