Päevapileteid

Päevapileteid, often translated as day tickets or day passes, are a common form of public transport ticket in Estonia. These tickets allow unlimited travel on specific public transport networks within a designated geographical area for a full calendar day. The exact validity period usually starts from the moment of purchase or validation and extends until the end of that day.

Day tickets are typically available for buses, trams, and trolleybuses operating within a city or region. Major cities like Tallinn and Tartu offer these options for both residents and tourists. The price of a päevapilet varies depending on the city and any potential discounts, such as those for students or seniors.

Purchasing a päevapilet can be done through various channels. These often include ticket machines at public transport stops, mobile applications specifically designed for public transport in Estonia, or sometimes directly from the driver on certain routes, although this last option may be less common or more expensive.

For frequent travelers within a city, a päevapilet can be a cost-effective alternative to purchasing single tickets for each journey. It simplifies travel by eliminating the need to buy multiple tickets throughout the day and provides the flexibility to hop on and off public transport as needed. The specific terms and conditions for each city's päevapilet, including the exact zones of validity and any restrictions, are usually available on the respective public transport authority's website.
