What kind of ticket is required to travel to other zones having Nuremberg periodical ticket for tariff A?
I'm really lost trying to understand the tariff for Nuremberg (Nürnberg) public transport. This is the most complicated thing I've ever met. 10 tariff zones and a dozen of ticket zone variants...
Let's say I'd buy a periodical (weekly for example) ticket for Tariff A (zones 100 and 200, Nürnberg, Fürth and Stein). What ticket do I need if on single day I'd like to travel to, let's say, Erlangen (zone 400, zone 300 is crossed).
If I'm going to stay there the whole day and use multiple buses etc., do I need to buy daily ticket for 4 zones, or can I buy some kind of supplemental ticket for zones 300 and 400 (because I already have the ticket for zones 100 and 200)?

I know this question is old, but the problem is still relevant.
If you already have a ticket for Zone 100 and 200 you can buy a "Streifenkarte" (https://vag.tickeos.de/index.php/product/34/show/0/0/0/0) and stamp one strip for each zone.
Example: You already have a ticket for The zones 100 and 200 and you want to go to Erlangen by train, you have to stamp two strips (you cross zone 300 and 400).
But if you go by bus from Nuremburg Thon, you do not cross Zone 300, you go directly from zone 200 into 400. Then you need only on strip in addition to your 100 and 200 card.
Important: You have to stamp for every trip (except those trips happen within 1.5 h after you stamped).
