Frequently Asked Questions

Unfortunately, you can only board the bus with a valid ticket, and its loss or theft does not give rise to any entitlement to replacement or refund. Not other forms of payment receipt or reused vouchers are accepted. Once you have acquired your ticket, you must keep it, as you must be able to show it both when boarding the bus and during routine checks. It is the customer’s responsibility to prove that he or she has been supplied with a ticket and, if this has not happened, to ask for one from our on-board staff when making the purchase.

There is no need to print your voucher. You can show your tickets online through your phone or tablet. Once you get on the bus, we will give you a new physical ticket that you will have to keep, as it will be your new physical voucher and the only valid ticket to re-board the bus.

Our online system only accepts AMERICAN EXPRESS, VISA and MASTERCARD credit cards. If you are trying to pay with other card, the system will deny the operation.
