Season tickets enable unlimited travel at all times at a low cost.
- For example, a 30-day AB ticket for people aged 70+ will cost EUR 34.50, which means that it will be more economical than single tickets if you make more than six return journeys a month.
- If you buy in one go an AB ticket for the whole year, you will get it for EUR 29 per month, which amounts to less than EUR 1 per day.
The discount single ticket for those aged 70 or over (available 9am–2pm) will be withdrawn with the introduction of the discount season ticket.
If you have turned 70 – or will be turning 70 before mid-January – and you intend to buy a long-term season ticket, it is worth waiting until 14 January before you purchase it. In this way, you can take advantage of the cheapest prices.
How to buy a 70+ season ticket on your HSL card at a discounted price
- If you have previously purchased discounted single tickets or value tickets with your HSL card, you do not have to do anything. Your HSL card already entitles you to a discount on the purchase of a season ticket.
- Change the customer group on your HSL card to 70+ if you have not already done so. The change can be made at HSL service points at the Helsinki Central Railway Station or in Itäkeskus.
- Once your HSL card is set for the correct customer group, you can load the season ticket onto your HSL card at a discounted price from 14 January onwards using either the online HSL card service (https://kortti.hsl.fi/etusivu) or our ticket machines, or at one of our sales points.
- If you are unsure whether your HSL card entitles you to the discount, please call our customer service on 09 4766 4000.
