So this makes it even more complicated. So I am going to buy a Sparpreis-Ticket from Bremen to DUS with Bahncard 25 discount. As there is no Düsseldorf airport + city ticket, I assume, that if I want the ticket to be valid on the skytrain, I should not buy the ticket to Düsseldorf Aiport (fastest connection is to change from the intercity to the RE in Duisburg and take the skytrain), but to buy it to Düsseldorf main station in order to receive the free ride on the skytrain... complicated and kind of stupid.
