A low-cost entry or travel pass.
Kultureller Hintergrund
The 'Ryanair generation' refers to young Lithuanians who used cheap tickets to move across Europe after 2004. Finding a 'pigus bilietas' is often seen as a sign of being 'taupus' (thrifty) and 'sumanus' (clever). The freedom of movement in the EU is practically synonymous with the availability of 'pigūs bilietai.' Using 'pigus bilietas' to describe a politician's tactics is a common trope in Lithuanian political satire.
