Public transport plays an important role in our society which is characterized by mobility, individuality, comfort and ecological constraints. It is common opinion that public transport offers a high level of comfort but lacks individual flexibility compared to individual transport. While navigation systems and other context-aware services enhance the feeling of self-determination for car drivers, no comparable means for customers of public transport are currently available. In this paper it will be shown that ubiquitous computing can supply customers of public transport with convenient attendance and flexibility. Typical scenarios are described, carved out general and technical requirements, and sketched a solution for a concrete implementation example. The findings give evidence that ubiquitous computing can leverage public transport for both customers and providers.
