Travel Cards are changed to new ones beginning on 10 November 2009

The blue Travel Card which has become familiar to many residents of the Helsinki metropolitan area over the past years has reached the end of its useful life and therefore, the blue Travel Cards are changed to new ones free of charge. You can change your Travel Card conveniently and free of charge e.g. the next time you load your card at a Travel Card service point, R kiosk or Stockmann department store. Period tickets and value left on the old card are transferred to the new one. Both old and new Travel Card can be used during the one-year transition period. Old cards can be loaded at ticket machines, VR’s ‘Junamaatti’ ticket machines and kiosks displaying the Travel Card sign (excluding R kiosks) until 1 February 2010.

On this website we want to provide you with information about the new Travel Card and give answers to questions you may have about the change and use of the card.

Try also the new, flexible single-charge card.

The winners of the competition have drawn out of the hat.
