I can't say I've ever see a timed ticket (except a full day) that is
defined as unlimited rides.


Geneva does (or did when I was last there). Admittedly, though, that
was over ten years ago.


I *think* Warsaw does, too, BICBW.


No, it seem that you are right (I did not use PT when I
was there - I could not work out the tickets. It was pre
internet, so I had no chance to find out before I went.)

Now, I can't work out what the difference is between:

Bilety okresowe miejskie na okaziciela
and
Bilety sieciowe okresowe na okaziciela

Oh well, I'll just have to take the 2.40 Zl (0.50Eu) pd hit if I go
back!

Looks like: "period ticket in the urban area for the bearer", and "network
period ticket for the bearer". Is the bearer female, I wonder? My Polish
Grammar never was very strong.

No, I think the bearer's in the genitive, unless the diacritic on the
"a" is missing :-P

No, me neither!

I, with some difficulty, bought a 7-day travelcard - with retrospect, I
should have got the hotel staff to write down for me what I should ask
the person manning the kiosk for! Next time, if there is a next time,
I'll do so.
