TICKET TYPES
There are two types of Kaunas city public transport tickets: single-use paper tickets and periodic electronic tickets (e-tickets).
Disposable paper tickets are valid for only one trip (the same single-trip ticket can not be used for the second trip). These paper tickets will be replaced with the electronic ticket in 2010 summer. After buying a single-trip ticket, you must validate it immediately upon boarding the vehicle. Please note that paper ticket must be put into the puncher which prints the date and time of the validation. Be sure to save the validated ticket for the whole trip time. Pay attention that paper tickets can be validated only in the 2 punchers of the 3 fitted in the bus or the trolleybus, the puncher situated closest to the driver is designed for e-tickets only.
If you do not or did not have time to buy a single-trip ticket at the distribution locations, you can buy a ticket from the driver. Please buy a ticket from the driver immediately after boarding the vehicle. Please note that for security reasons drivers do not carry cash with them, so please be prepared to pay the exact amount of money.
Paper tickets purchased from the driver must not be validated using ticket punchers.
E-ticket is a plastic card which may be loaded by one or more (only one so far) kinds of transport tickets. Depending on the type of e-ticket, the validation of e-ticket may be required. Currently there are no e-ticket types which require a validation.
