There are student discounts for taking a bus. College students can enjoy a half-price discount for taking a bus. The specific operation is as follows:
Ticket purchase method: College students can buy bus tickets at the ticket window or self-service ticket machine at the passenger station. They need to bring their student ID and ID card and follow the instructions of the station staff.
Discount time: Usually, the half-price discount for college students' tickets is only available during the winter and summer vacations, from December 1st to March 31st of the following year, and from June 1st to September 30th.
Discount range: The discount is limited to ordinary hard seats, hard sleepers and second-class seats of EMUs, and is limited to four one-way trips per academic year. When purchasing tickets, you must also pay attention to the ticket discount range. The part beyond the discount range must be paid at full price.
Special circumstances: Freshmen can purchase a one-way student ticket from the student's home to the school location on the 12306 website or at the station's manual window with their admission notice; graduates can also enjoy similar ticket purchase discounts with a written certificate issued by the school.
In addition, policies may vary between regions and transportation companies. It is recommended to check local specific regulations in advance.
