Q: How do I get from Helsinki airport to Tikkurila?

P train to Tikkurila: €3.30 for one traveler, 8 min. It leaves you at Tikkurila station, the third stop, in 8 minutes. Only the P train reaches Tikkurila from the airport, eight minutes and the third stop. Tikkurila is in zone C, like the airport, so a BC ticket covers it, cheaper than the ABC ticket to Helsinki. The I train goes the other way round the ring and never gets there.
