Boarding is possible only with a valid ticket.
The start of validity of a single ticket is:
- automatically after the purchase of the ticket, or
- at the selected time, via a slider in the shopping cart, up to 90 minutes within the current day, when purchasing a ticket directly from the ticket menu, or
- at the scheduled departure time of the searched connection, when purchasing a ticket via the connection finder, up to 180 minutes within the current day.
The passenger can see in the mobile application how much time is left until the ticket starts to be valid and then the time left until the ticket expires.
If necessary, a ticket with a delayed validity can be cancelled up to 5 minutes before it is activated. The cancelled amount is automatically added to the user's credit, which can then be used to purchase further tickets.
