Bus passes may come in different types. A regular pass is the one that you pay for a one way trip, day pass gives you unlimited rides anywhere for one day, and weekly pass allows you to ride any bus of the bus company for one week, monthly pass (one month unlimited rides) and annual pass (one year unlimited rides). These bus pass plans are actually advantageous to passengers who follow the same tract everyday like students and office workers.

The cost of bus passes actually differs on the plan that you are availing and the city in which you are availing this public transportation service.
