Can anyone who has used the buses over the last week or so tell me if the two tier system has definitely been dropped and everyone now pays 1.50 and can you tell me if the timetables on the Arriva website are still being used or if not where can I find out bus times.
Thanks

I know what you mean about trusting the timetables but I just meant as a basic guideline

No ID is needed anymore. It's official and confirmed by the Maltese minister of transport.

Hello there
What about the weekly ticket for the bus? Is it still 12€ or it has got a different price?
Thanks a million

It's still 12€, but there is already some talk in the town that the prices will be increased at some point. We will see...

Well - given that a day ticket costs 1.50, the price of a week ticket should probably be lower than 7x1.50, not higher.

Don't think they will let you take furniture on the bus best to get a removal firm.

Hi,
If you go to Google maps for Malta and zoom in to the are that you want you will see the bus stops, click on the bus stop and you will see what number buses go there, click on the bus number and it will give you the times.
Hope this helps

There may be some confusion, using Google, when the new routes come into play, (don't know when that will be but could be in a couple of months time) so just double check is all I'm suggesting.
