Staff: Good morning. What kind of tickets are there? I am on vacation here and I
am a little confused. For example, is it cheaper to get a return ticket or oneway?
: Well, often there aren’t any return tickets. Most train services only use
single trip tickets. Special services , such as the limited express allow you tobook a seat for the return part of your trip.
: Oh, I see. It’s very different from my country.
Is there any way to travel more cheaply?
What kind of tickets are there for travel on
conventional trains?
: One way, is to buy a multi-trip ticket. You get
11 journeys for the price of 10 between twostations. There are also commuter passes available.
