Stockholm Booking with www.safflebussen.se
Posted: Thu March 20, 2008 01:11 PM UTC
Hello!

I would like to book a overnight bus ticket from oslo to stockholm.

I go to safflebussen website, but there is no english version. Can anyone answer me some questions if you have travelled with them before.

My age is 21 and i am now study in UK,

1. can i buy "Tillbud" ticket?
2. What conditions do "Tillbud" ticket have?
3. if i book online, do i need to print the ticket or just have a reservation number?

Thanks!

(1) Yes, you can. Tillbud (I think that's Norwegian for offer, somebody correct me if I'm wrong) is available for everyone.

(2) The small print for "tillbud" tickets:
- booking up to 48 hours before departure
- the ticket cannot be re bought (like if you cancel the trip at the last minute)

(3) From what I read, they send the ticket number to your e-mail so I guess you print it. If you have a Swedish mobile operator, they can send you the info to your mobile # for free too.

If there aren't any "tillbud" tickets available when you shop, by showing a student card (preferably with a photo) you can take advantage of the student price. They also have tickets called "lågpris" (low price), which you can buy with the student price, and the small print for those ticket is:
- booking up to 48 hours before departure
- the ticket can be re bought until kl 15 the departure day by paying a 50 SEK fee.

Good luck.

Rough translation:

All you have to do is board the bus, you do not have to collect any physical ticket. Just print your booking number and show it to the driver.

Rules for cancelations,

regular price - until 1 hour before departure
low price - until 24 hours before departure
"tillbud" - not "cancelable"
