What happens if I forget my ticket?

As a general rule, all issued tickets must be carried with you on every trip.

If you do not have your ticket with you during an inspection, you may present it to us within one week. Doing so will reduce the surcharge from 60 euros to 7 euros.

Please note: If you are unable to present a valid ticket during an inspection, you must pay the increased fare of 60 euros in accordance with the Terms and Conditions of Carriage of the Warnow Transport Association (VVW).

The Student Pass

Students in the Rostock district receive a student transit pass that is valid for one school year. The student transit pass entitles the student to use the buses operated by rebus Regionalbus Rostock GmbH and its contractual partners, as well as the other modes of transportation listed on the pass.

This pass is valid only with a photo and only on the specified route between home and school, and only on school days.

The student pass must be carried on every trip throughout the entire school year and presented to the driver without being asked before the trip begins.
