Bilietus

Bilietus is the accusative plural form of the Lithuanian noun bilietas, which means tickets. In Lithuanian, a bilietas is a document or online confirmation that grants admission to an event or permission to travel with a transport operator. The plural bilietai covers tickets in general, with bilietus used when the tickets are the direct object of a sentence, for example: Aš perku bilietus (I am buying tickets).

Common types include transport tickets, such as railway, bus, air, and ferry tickets, and event tickets, such as for concerts, theatres, cinemas, or sports matches. Tickets may also represent season passes, reservations, or other forms of authorized admission. With the growth of digital services, electronic tickets stored on mobile devices have become increasingly common.

Formats and features commonly found on bilietas include the event or journey name, date and time, venue or route, seat assignment when applicable, price, and a unique identifier. Many tickets include a barcode or QR code to facilitate entry. Digital bilietai may be delivered by email or accessed via a dedicated app, while physical tickets are typically printed on paper or card.

Purchasing and use guidelines vary by operator and jurisdiction. Tickets are usually bought in advance, online or at ticket offices, and presented at entry. Policies on transfers, refunds, and changes depend on terms set by the issuer.

Linguistic note: bilietus is used as the direct object form, while bilietai is the nominative plural, and bilietų is the genitive plural. The concept is widely used in everyday Lithuanian for travel and leisure activities.
