Which student ticket is right for me?

Students can buy a single ticket from our driver - saving 25% on an adult fare, or purchase one of our great value DayRider or MegaRider tickets.
Don't forget, our Flexi 5 ticket is also available on the Stagecoach Bus app, offering 5 DayRider tickets for the price of 4!

Our multi-journey tickets are split into 3 prices - Town/City, Regional and East Scotland, covering local towns and cities, as well as cross country travel on our Express City Connect network. Ticket costs vary per zone type.

If you can get there by bus with Stagecoach East Scotland, you can get there with one of our student tickets.
