Cost:
There is now a public transport kiosk in
arrivals, just past the change bureau and next to the ATMs, which sells
the full range of tickets meaning you no longer need to get change
for the machines.
30-minute ticket (45 min at weekends) is SKK18/€0.75,
60-minute (90 min at weekends) is SKK22,
24-hour ticket (from stamping) is SKK90, 48-hr SKK180, 72-hr SKK210 & 1 week SKK310.
The bus ride to the train station is ~28 mins.
Travelling without valid ticket incurs a fine of SKK 1400 (and plain-clothed
inspectors are on the buses) and if
you don't have enough money, you will have to pay an additional fine! Baggage exceeding 30x40x60cm must also be paid
for (SKK 27), otherwise a fine of SKK 35 is charged. Animals may be carried for SKK 70, but there is a fine of SKK 140 if the animal fouls on the bus!!!
(Seriously I am not making this up!) |
|
Timings:
The bus runs regularly, every 10-20 mins 0445-2305, even on the weekend.
See latest schedules
here.
Note: Asking for a bus ticket for the airport at the BUS station will get you a ticket to Vienna Airport in Austria.
This service costs SKK 210 (Less than €5) The hourly service puts you right outside the Vienna Airport terminal in
~1 hour! Great service operated by Eurolines. Travel Time: To the
city 21 mins. |
