How much is a ticket for the bus and light rail in Odense?
Low flat fares within Odense Municipality.
Short answer
In 2026 the Odense Nu ticket costs 15 DKK for travellers aged 26 and over and is valid for 1 hour 15 minutes on Odense Letbane and all buses in Odense Municipality. Travellers under 26 pay 10 DKK with Ung Odense. You buy it in the Rejsebillet app or by scanning the QR code at stops and light rail stations, and two children under 12 ride free. The ordinary FynBus single ticket for 1–2 zones costs 28 DKK for an adult.
Why
- Odense Nu: 15 DKK for 26 and over.
- Ung Odense: 10 DKK for under 26.
- City bus line 10C is free for everyone.
Details
You cannot buy a ticket from the light rail driver and the stations have no machines; travelling without a ticket costs a 1,000 DKK fine for adults.
Tip
Buy before you board: a QR ticket starts the moment you pay, while in the Rejsebillet app you can choose the start time.
What may differ
Odense Nu does not cover DSB trains or buses outside Odense Municipality, and fares may change from January.
Common misconception
You need separate tickets for the bus and the light rail in Odense.
