    How long is an HSL single ticket valid?

    Validity time and changes on HSL single tickets.

    Answered at: Checked at:

    Short answer

    HSL says a single ticket is valid for 80 to 110 minutes, depending on how many zones it covers. You can change to another vehicle during the whole validity time. It is enough that the ticket is valid when you board the vehicle or enter the metro paid area. HSL's 2019 travel conditions also say the validity time starts when you buy the ticket.

    Why

    1. Validity: 80 to 110 minutes.
    2. You can change vehicles while the ticket is valid.
    3. Validity starts when you buy the ticket.

    Details

    HSL says season tickets are personal and cannot be lent to a friend.

    Tip

    Buy the ticket just before you board, not long before, because the time starts at purchase.

    What may differ

    HSL's older travel conditions said a ticket bought from a machine was valid 10 minutes longer.

    Common misconception

    An HSL single ticket is only valid for one vehicle.

    What actually happens

    You can change vehicles during the validity time.
