Can you combine two HSL tickets for one journey?
How to add a single ticket to a season or day ticket.
Short answer
Yes. HSL made it possible on 2 June 2026 to combine different tickets for the same journey, and at the same time removed zone extension tickets. For example, you can combine a season ticket on an HSL card with a single ticket bought by contactless payment, or an AB day ticket in the app with a CD single ticket. Buy the extra ticket before your vehicle leaves the last stop in the zones of your first ticket, and show all tickets to an inspector.
Why
- HSL's ticket page explains combining tickets from 2 June 2026.
- HSL announced that zone extension tickets were removed on 2 June 2026.
- HSL's updated conditions require showing all tickets to an inspector.
Details
If you use the HSL app, make sure the second ticket has arrived on your phone before you cross into the new zone.
Tip
A season ticket for AB plus a single C ticket is an easy way to reach Helsinki Airport.
What may differ
Rules on the timing of the extra ticket are set in HSL's conditions of carriage.
Common misconception
HSL still sells separate zone extension tickets.
What actually happens
They were removed on 2 June 2026. You now combine normal tickets.
