You can buy a bike ticket no earlier than 60 days in advance. It is advisable to buy the bike ticket together with the rail ticket.

The following tables show the bicycle parking options for each railway line.

The transport of folding bikes - up to the size of the hand luggage specified in the Business Rules and the weight described therein - is free of charge.

Travel by bike at great prices! The advantage of a bike tour ticket is that you can travel anywhere from Hungary for 420 HUF to Lake Balaton, Lake Tisza or Lake Neusiedl and also have unlimited changes on the day the ticket is valid. If you have a bike tour ticket, you only need a valid ticket to travel by train.

For example, if you want to travel from Nyíregyháza to Lake Neusiedl, then it is worth buying a bike tour ticket for your rail ticket, with which you can get to the railway stations of the lake. On the same day, you don’t need to buy new bike tickets between the individual railway stations of Lake Neusiedl, you just need to have a valid rail ticket for the route.

The discount includes the following railways stations at Lake Neusiedl, Lake Balaton and Lake Tisza.
