Contexte culturel
Riding without a ticket is called 'važiuoti zuikiu' (to ride like a rabbit). It's a common slang term. In Vilnius, you don't usually buy paper tickets anymore; you 'top up' a 'Vilniečio kortelė'. Buying a ticket online is often cheaper than buying it on the train, where a surcharge applies. Students get an 80% discount on public transport tickets, but they must show their LSP (Lithuanian Student Identity Card).
Use the App
In Vilnius, it's much cheaper to buy a ticket via the 'm.Ticket' app than from the driver.
The 'Ą' Matters
If you write 'bilieta' without the hook, it's a spelling error. Always include the 'nosinė' (nasal hook).
