Timetable and route interface
The information from the timetable and route interface can be used, for example, to build route guides. The timetable and route data are currently being converted to GTFS from the old kalkati.net format. The exact addresses of carrier-specific timetable interfaces are stored in the NAP service.
Booking and sales interface
The opening up of the booking and sales interface will enable the sale of single tickets also by operators outside Matkahuolto. The booking and sales interface is used under the same terms of use as the timetable and route interfaces.
The starting address of the interface is https://minfoapi.matkahuolto.fi.
