The [[Nuremberg–Munich high-speed railway|Nuremberg–Ingolstadt–Munich high-speed line]] with {{convert|300|km/h|0|abbr=on}} operation opened 28 May 2006, and was fully integrated into the rail schedule on 10 December 2006. Travel times to Munich have been reduced to as little as one hour. The [[Nuremberg–Erfurt high-speed railway]] opened in December 2017.

===City and regional transport===

The [[Trams in Nuremberg|Nuremberg tramway network]] was opened in 1881. {{As of|2008}}, it extends a total length of {{convert|36|km|mi|abbr=on}}, has six lines, and carried 39.152&nbsp;million passengers annually. The first segment of the [[Nuremberg U-Bahn]] metro system was opened in 1972. Nuremberg's trams, [[bus]]es and U-Bahn are operated by the {{Lang|de|[[Verkehrs-Aktiengesellschaft Nürnberg]]}} (VAG; Nuremberg Transport Corporation), a member of the ''[[Verkehrsverbund Großraum Nürnberg]]'' (VGN; Greater Nuremberg Transport Network).

There is also a [[Nuremberg S-Bahn]] suburban metro railway and a regional train network, both centred on {{lang|de|[[Nürnberg Hauptbahnhof]]|italic=no}}. Since 2008, Nuremberg has had the first U-Bahn in Germany (U2/U21 and U3) that works without a driver. It also was the first subway system worldwide in which both driver-operated trains and computer-controlled trains shared tracks.

[[Nuremberg Airport]] has flights to major German cities and many European destinations. The largest operators are currently [[Eurowings]] and [[TUI fly Deutschland]], while the low-cost [[Ryanair]] and [[Wizz Air]] companies connect the city to various European centres. A significant amount of the airport's traffic flies to and from mainly touristic destinations during the peak winter season. The airport (Flughafen) is the terminus of [[Nuremberg U-Bahn|Nuremberg U-Bahn Line 2]]; until 2021, it was the only airport in Germany served by a [[U-Bahn]] subway system. [[Stuttgart Airport]] is also now served by its U-Bahn network, with the line U6 terminating there.
