* The 49 euro ticket is a digital offer, e.g. I bought it online on the BVG (Berlin transport authority) website via Google Pay.

* How did you manage to buy a Hamburg to Berlin ticket for 400 EUR? The most expensive 1st-class high-speed rail ticket costs about 120.

Hamm <> Hamburg?

Hamm is a town not too far away from Køln and Düsseldorf.

ticket to Berlin was 180 + ticket back was 170 = 350. I was wowed.

So, first class, ICE, full flex ticket. Yeah, those will be slightly more expensive. You can then forget about the Deutschland Ticket, that’s not available for first class, nor with ICE (not even EC). The only thing it gives you is the flex option. Simply by taking 2nd class, you could already cut the price in half.
