What is a VR multi-ticket and how does it work?
A ticket for people who ride the same route often.
Short answer
VR says a multi-ticket suits you if you travel the same route regularly. Both long-distance and commuter traffic have multi-tickets for 10 and 30 trips, valid for 4 months. On long-distance trains you book each journey before the scheduled departure, the same way as a seat reservation. If you have not booked before boarding, you must buy a new ticket from the conductor, and you cannot book a journey on a sold-out train. A booked long-distance journey can be cancelled free of charge up to 30 minutes before departure, but the multi-ticket itself cannot be changed or cancelled.
Why
- 10 or 30 trips.
- Valid for 4 months.
- Book each long-distance trip before departure.
Details
VR's corporate ticket page says a long-distance multi-ticket saves 20% on the price of a single ticket.
Tip
Book the trip in the app as soon as you know your train, since sold-out trains cannot be booked.
What may differ
The 20% figure comes from VR's corporate page; check the consumer price for your route.
Common misconception
A multi-ticket lets you hop on any train without booking.
What actually happens
On long-distance trains each trip must be booked before departure.
