The full-flex ticket is about 29.70 - 37.00 €. Most likely you have bought the "Bayern Ticket Single" which is restricted for travel between 9 am and 3 am the following day on weekdays. Also you can only take regional trains (Regionalexpress) and not the fast ones. It is NOT limited to a certain connection on that day.

Basically if your flight is late or luggage arrives too late worst case is waiting another hour and take the next RE train to Salzburg. So nothing to worry about
