Tickets and cards

  • Retain your ticket or card during the entire journey and show it to company staff when asked to do so.
  • You have the right to exchange an undamaged, multi-journey card if the validating machine rejects it and it corresponds to the journey you want to make.


Offences and penalties

  • Travelling without a valid ticket or card constitutes an offence that requires the payment of a fixed penalty sum as per the legal regulations in force. If the passenger pays immediately, the sum is reduced by 50% otherwise they must show proof of identity and will have 30 days to pay the penalty.
  • If, in any of the above situations, a passenger refuses to show proof of identity to staff, these will call on the presence of security or law enforcement officers to request they show said proof, and can demand the passenger gets off the bus.
    If a passenger has a card, multi-journey/day card or personalised pass, they must be able to prove that they are the named person.
  • If a passenger has a correct and validated integrated transport system card at the start of a journey but not validated when they change the mode of transport, they will pay the sum equivalent to the price of a single ticket for one zone.

  • In the event of an offence, the company will file a complaint with the Administration. 
  • Travelling without a valid ticket or card can result in a fine of up to €600, issued by the Administration.
