Combine tickets
On routes where Västtrafik’s period, day, and single tickets are valid, these can be combined. As long as the combined zone validity of the tickets covers the entire journey, all period, day, and single tickets can be combined with each other.
Example:
A journey from Gothenburg (zone A) to Skövde (zone C) requires ticket validity for zones ABC. The minimum valid zone combination is A+BC or AB+C. In this example, you can have a period ticket for zone A and buy a single ticket for BC to travel with SJ Regional.
