Maastricht airport to train station?

Qualitymark

Anyone able to advise me on this - I'm seeing various versions of the story. Is there a shuttle bus from Maastricht airport to Maastricht train station, and if so, what does it cost?

This suggests that you use route 59.

This confirms it http://www.maa.nl/en-us/passengers/preparations/access/publictransport - the timetable there says "Please buy your ticket at Travel-inn shop in the terminal to avoid waiting in the bus".

www.9292.nl also suggest you can get Belbus route 98 to Beek and then a train, but I think the direct bus might be a better idea.

9292 has a premium rate number 0900 - 9292 €0.70 per minute. Probably only accessible in the Netherlands.

Bus 59, takes around 35 minutes.

Got it there a few months back, not sure of the price as I used my OV Chipkaart but it's probably the same as the Eindhoven Airport but (3 euro to the City Station)

9292 says its 2.74, but a paper ticket usually costs a bit more on the bus.

Thanks! Bus was €4.

Thinking of availing of the cheap flights to Maastricht with Ryanair. However flights back on Mondays are at 6:55, does the shuttle bus or the local bus start that early? From that plan your journey website

It looks like the first bus is at 6AM. Anyone ever gotten that early flight home from Maastricht??
