Hi,
My train will arrive at the main train station in Prague on sunday night around 21.45.
I need to buy a transfer or a day pass ticket for metro (Hlavni Nadrizi).
As far as I know, the ticket vending machine takes coins only which I don't think I will have enough coins for it. And the information center will be closed already.
Will there be anywhere else that I can buy a ticket? Any ticket counter or kiosk selling a ticket will open that late?
Thanks

Kiosks sell public transport tickets too - try the newsagent shops in the building.

The transfer ticket (validity 75 min.) costs 26 CZK. 24h ticket costs 100 CZK.

If you want to exchange cash and do not want to be ripped-off, do not use the exchange service at Hlavni nadrazi or Wenceslas Square. This is a good exchange company http://exchange.cz/index2.php , the office is near OldTown Square. The second table is for cash exchange - buying 18,10 CZK/USD, 24,60 CZK/EUR. Nakup = buy, prodej = sell.

Enjoy your stay.

So, there would be some kiosks, or newsagent shops open on that time right?

Yup. It's the main station of a big city, so 21:45 is not that late really.
