"Recently took a bus from an airport in Nordrhein-Westfalen ..."
Can anyone (Germans ?) confirm that this was, indeed, the only possible mechanism to pay for this single bus trip ?
I'm genuinely curious as my experiences in Switzerland - as late as last November - were that many different durations and service levels of paper ticket were able to be purchased, with cash or bank card, from a ticket machine.
Is the experience really that divergent in Germany ?
