Notes

In Copenhagen, we bought a 72 hour City Pass Small at a kiosk in the airport, which covered our travel on local trains, Metro, Harbour Bus and City Bus. The system was on the honor basis. Our tickets were checked by a conductor once on the Metro and once on the bus to the cruise terminal.

The Kotka-Hamina bus driver took cash and gave change.

In Helsinki, we bought a day pass at a kiosk at the Tram stop, good for trams and the ferry to Suomenlinna. The system was on the honor basis.

In Stockholm, the harbor bus took a tap to pay credit card or Apple Pay as a ticket good for 75 minutes on the harbour bus and the T. The Arlanda Express had its own platform, where you bought tickets at a kiosk and boarded the train. There was a discount for more than one traveler. The train reached at least 205 kph.
