That's to say if the time specified is the time you take the train or
the time you want to arrive to Heidelberg at.
Some prefilled form for the 15th: http://goo.gl/UPNxfL there are trains
for 19 EUR

You can choose the cheapest option as long as you don't select any
reductions (you probably are not elligible)

The savings fares are for specific trains only. So if your plane is
delayed you might need to pay a penalty to go to another train, but I
don't know how this works

In the form i linked, you have options with only one change, less than
one hour in total time. and you have already platform numbers and
everything :)
