tickets available:
- single-journey tickets (a ticket is valid for one journey after
validation, independently of travel time; in case of a change to
other bus/trolleybus – it is necessary to validate another
single-journey ticket):
- for regular lines (blue tickets)
- for fast, special and nocturnal lines (red tickets)

- 1-hour (either for regular lines or all lines)
- 24-hour (for all lines)
- single-journey tickets (a ticket is valid for one journey after
validation, independently of travel time; in case of a change to
other bus/trolleybus – it is necessary to validate another
single-journey ticket):

a list of persons entitled to reduced-price and free journeys is available HERE
attention: a single ticket is mostly a reduced-price ticket (e.g. PLN 1,60 zł; PLN 2,10); persons not entitled to reduced-price journeys have to validate 2 reduced-price tickets – to come up to a price of a standard ticket (e.g. validate 2 reduced-price tickets for PLN 1,60/each to come up to the price of a standard single-journey ticket for PLN 3,20; by analogy – 2 reduced-price tickets worth PLN 6,50/each to come up to the price of a standard 24-hour ticket for PLN 13 etc.);
where to buy:
tickets can be purchased from a driver
attention: in case of single-journey tickets, a driver can only sell so-called carnets consisting of 5 reduced-price tickets; it means that 1 carnet’s price amounts to – depending on a kind of a line (regular or fast) – PLN 8,00 (5 X PLN 1,60) or PLN 10,50 (5 x PLN 2,10); it is better to have exact cash prepared; the above mentioned information does not refer to time tickets
tickets can also be purchased at points of ticket sale, selected kiosks and some railway stations – however it is a rather standard practice among people who do not have a monthly ticket to buy tickets from a driver
If you are not sure which bus ticket you should buy and where, we recommend you to purchase a 24-hour ticket from a driver.
