ABOUT YOUR TICKET

Types of tickets

We sell both tickets that are changeable/refundable and tickets that are non-changeable/nonrefundable. We offer an opportunity to reserve seats which must be done prior to departure and in connection with booking the ticket. We sell tickets/cards that are valid for a certain period (season tickets) and tickets that are not valid for a certain period.

The passenger must have a valid ticket to travel. A passenger who boards a train without a valid ticket must purchase a ticket on-board the train no later than 15 minutes from departure, failing which the passenger shall be deemed not to have a valid ticket. You can buy a ticket on our website www.mtrx.se or via our App “MTRX”. You can also buy a ticket from the on-board staff. You might be asked to show a valid form of personal identification (“ID”)**. If you have purchased a personal ticket, we often request to see a valid ID in cases where the ticket was purchased less than 24 hours before departure.

Luggage, baby stroller, wheelchairs, guide gods/service dogs/pets etc. ,

MTRX ’s General Terms and Conditions for the Carriage of Passengers by Rail include provisions on travelling with luggage and pets. Brief overview:

The passenger may, free of charge, take one luggage items that is easy for him/her to carry, of reasonable circumference and, on each mode of transport, may be stowed in a designated or appropriate space.

A guideline for what constitutes luggage of reasonable circumference is 1 piece of luggage measuring approximately 800 x 500 x 35 mm and weighing no more than approximately 20 kg. You may also take a smaller bag (handbag, laptop bag etc).

Baby strollers, wheelchairs (including powered wheelchairs) and similar aids are permitted if space allows. Baby strollers shall be folded and stowed in a designated area. Mobility scooters are permitted if space allows. A space must be reserved prior to departure in connection with booking the ticket.

Where a passenger wishes to bring a wheelchair or similar aids onboard the train during their journey, the passenger must ensure, prior to booking a ticket, that the wheelchair etc. is of a length, width and weight that may be taken onboard and used in the train. This also applies to mobility scooters. (The following size and weight restrictions apply on-board: width 800 mm, length: 1200 mm, weight: 350 kg. The applicable ground clearance must be a minimum of 50 mm.)

When changing the name of a discounted ticket such as child, youth, student or senior, the passenger whose name is changed to the ticket must meet the requirements for that type of traveler. However, a name change cannot be made on tickets booked with a commuter card.
