U22? Apply for free bus travel!

 

If you are a student under the age of 22, you can apply for a free bus travel card to access the Young Persons’ (Under 22s) Free Bus Travel Scheme. 

The scheme is an initiative from the Scottish Government and, with support from Transport Scotland, young people and children can travel for free on all buses across Scotland.

Children or young people will need a new or replacement National Entitlement Card (NEC) or a Young Scot National Entitlement Card (Young Scot NEC) before they can travel for free.

Younger children under five years old will still be able to travel for free by bus and don't need a card.  

 

If you're over 22, we've still got you covered

 

If you are a student over the age of 22 or just studying in Scotland for a short time, our student bus passes give you discounted travel anywhere within your selected zone -  pay once and use it as many times as you like throughout the term with a 4 week MegaRider ticket, or buy as you need to travel with our single, DayRider, Flexi 5/10 or 7 day student MegaRider tickets. All tickets are available to buy on the Stagecoach Bus App. 

 

Use your student bus pass each time you board the bus, along with your student ID, and you'll get unlimited bus travel on Stagecoach East Scotland services with just one ticket.
