Easy and intuitive

Started using this to help save a bit of money in combatting the cost of living crisis, of course, public transport assisting in tackling the far larger emergency of the climate crisis, compared to private ICE (internal combustion engine) car use. The app is easy to load with pre-paid tickets and to use, offering greater flexibility when I decide to only take the bus one way and walk back - previously I lost money in having already bought a return ticket when deciding I should walk one way, or having bought a single when I expected to walk back but then the weather turned against me! Recommended app. 👍

Developer Response ,

Thank you for your positive feedback, much appreciated!

Not a UX as it should be

So today I installed the app and bought a ticket. Let's say that it's an ok procedure although there no way to add the hour and date you want to travel (I'm talking about getting to the airports). Next step I thought should be to activate the ticket. I did. BIG BIG BIG mistake. Activation gives you 30 minutes to use the ticket. There's no warning that activating the ticket means that it's gone after those 30 minutes. First of all, why I should activate a ticket I payed for? Isn't there a database that can see if my ticket is scanned, which would mean that I went into the bus? Secondly, why I cannot book a specific hour and date I want to travel? On the contrary this can be done on the web app of the same bus company for the same routes. It means that it wasn't developed by the same team probably. Thirdly, there is no notification that your ticket will be gone after you activate it. Who really thought about it? It looks like a trap for the user to get their money without traveling, from my point of view. Finally, there's no way to cancel or stop the activation of the ticket and the 30 minutes count down. Why is that? Definitely not a user friendly app and the experience is not a good one, especially if you pay and lose money. I have already contacted the company with an email and I hope I get the ticket back because it's not a cheap one and I don't want to pay again for something I haven't even used.

Hi there, there are multiple methods of purchasing tickets for our Airline services. You can use our airline booking system on our website to make an actual reservation (specifying the date/time of travel) or you can buy open tickets via the app which can be used anytime within 12 months from purchase. When activating the ticket, the app warns you to only activate when you are ready to board and asks you to confirm if you wish to proceed. If you do confirm this, I'm afraid there is no option to overturn the activation from the app. You will need to get in touch with us at [email protected] and we will be able to assist with this.

Fixed at last

The previous version failed draw the route on the map and did not often show the actual position of the buses. This version does Draw the route and seems better. Very poor software version control to have let the old version out in such a broken state. Let's Hope quality control is better from now on. Being sight impaired, the app is very important to me.

Good Afternoon, I am happy to hear you like the improvements! If you have any suggestions, please don't hesitate to contact us by email via [email protected]

Ticket prices for the Trans-Siberian Railway also depend on the current ruble exchange rate.

Is the Trans-Siberian Railway expensive?

Before starting on your Trans-Siberian Railway adventure you naturally want to know what the entire trip will cost. Although this sounds like a simple question, it is pretty difficult to answer. The Trans-Siberian Railway price of travel depends on the following factors:

• Which travel class do I want to use? The price for a first class ticket is about three times the price of a 3rd class ticket
• Am I willing to buy the tickets myself and assume responsibility for the organisation of the trip?
• How many stopovers do I want to make? The more breaks, the higher the total price.
• What sort of accommodation do I want? Will it be a luxury hotel or will a hostel dormitory be sufficient?
• What tours and excursions would I like to go on?
• What is the current exchange rate for rubles?

Basically, everything from a luxury to a budget holiday is available. If you buy yourself a 3rd Class nonstop ticket at the counter, a few hundred Euros will cover the price. All you will experience is a week on the Trans-Siberian train and will see nothing of the cities on the way. There is, however, any amount of room for upward expansion. Everyone makes different choices about which aspects they are willing to spend money on. I personally prefer to save money on accommodation and railcar class, visit as many cities and do as many trips as possible. To enable better classification of your travel expenses I have contrasted two typical traveler types. In the third column you can calculate the total cost of your own journey on the Trans-Siberian Railway. Please keep in mind that these are only rough estimations and not exact prices.

The all-in costs seem fairly high at first. However, they cover everything and it is quite a long journey taking four weeks. Many people forget to consider that when looking at the list. We should also deduct the running costs for food and leisure at home. I think most visitors to this page will classify themselves somewhere between the two categories, that is around the € 2,000 – € 2,500 range. When comparing these prices with other travel packages, you get the impression that it is hardly worthwhile travelling individually on the Trans-Siberian Railway. Please keep in mind that most packages last no more than 14 days and you are herded like cattle through the most beautiful locations.

If you spend less time on the Trans-Siberian Railway you will, of course, pay less. I chose this particular travel length because I prefer not to do things by halves. If you fulfill your dream of travelling on the Trans-Siberian Railway, enjoy it and don’t rush things. But it’s up to you, of course. Try playing around with the form a bit to find the appropriate price for your trip.
