How to Give the Gift of Travel This Christmas

See below for how you can give someone a trip with Mälartåg as a Christmas gift:

Experience Something Together

Travel with friends or family by purchasing single tickets for both yourself and them in the app or here on the website. Tickets bought in the app cannot be forwarded to someone else; instead, you show them to the train attendant when you travel together.

Send a Ticket as a Gift

Treat someone to a journey by purchasing a single ticket here on the website and sending the ticket as a PDF via email—or print it out and give it as a gift.

Share Your Movingo Ticket

Do you have a Movingo period ticket that you won’t be using during the Christmas and New Year holidays, or could you consider staying home for a day so someone else can use it? In that case, you can lend it to someone you care about. A smart and thoughtful way to travel.

The person you lend your Movingo ticket to will also need to have our app installed on their phone.

Swish a Trip

Do you know someone who would like to explore the Mälardalen region by train? You can use Swish to send them the amount for the ticket as a gift!

Check our prices for each route in the app or here on the website before you Swish. The ticket price is always the same no matter when you buy it.

About This Year’s Smartest Christmas Gift

Every year, HUI Research names the Christmas Gift of the Year, a distinction meant to reflect current consumer trends. Together with several other public transport operators in Sweden, Mälardalstrafik wants to highlight public transport as this year’s smartest Christmas gift.

Public transport meets HUI’s criteria for the Christmas Gift of the Year in many ways, as it reflects the times, is constantly evolving, accessible and important to many, and encourages sustainable behaviors in society.
