BUS
Local & Regional
Skånetrafiken operates Skåne's efficient local bus and train networks (the latter known as
Pågatågen).
Its buses operate in zones, with a single journey costing Skr22 within the city of Malmö.
Note that (aside from the Flygbuss) you can't buy a ticket on the bus. Instead, purchase a
reusable Jojo card at the Skånetrafiken customer-service centres at Centralstationen or Tri-
angeln and load it with an amount to cover your estimated local bus travel. Alternatively,
purchase a 24- or 72-hour Timmarsbijett bus pass.
Most long-distance regional buses leave from the bus station on Spårvägsgatan, while a
few go from in front of Centralplan. Bus 146 is a useful service to the ferries departing
from Trelleborg (Skr65, 40 minutes); this service runs once or twice hourly. Bus 100 to
Falsterbo (Skr65, one hour) is equally useful.
Long-Distance
There are two bus terminals with daily departures to Swedish and European destinations.
Travelshop (Malmö Buss & Resecenter; GOOGLE MAP ; 33 05 70; www.travelshop.se ; Carls-
gatan 4A) , north of Centralstationen, sells tickets for several companies, including Swebus
Express ( 0771-21 82 18; www.swebus.se ) , which runs two to four times daily direct to
Stockholm (from Skr539, 8½ hours), four times to Jönköping (from Skr239, 4½ hours)
and up to 10 times daily to Göteborg (from Skr139, three to four hours); five continue to
Oslo (from Skr219, eight hours).
The second long-distance bus terminal, Öresundsterminalen ( 040-59 09 00;
www.oresundsterminalen.se ; Terminalgatan 10) is reached via bus 35 from Centralstationen to-
wards Flansbjer (Skr25, 30 minutes). From here Svenska Buss ( 0771-67 67 67;
www.svenskabuss.se ) runs a service to Stockholm (Skr420, 11 hours) via Karlskrona, six
times weekly.
Eurolines also runs services from here to several European destinations.
Trains are your best option for journeys to Copenhagen and beyond.
