Do children have to pay for a ticket?
Children over 3 years old pay for a ticket because they already occupy a seat. However, if the child is going to travel on the legs of the father or mother, it is possible not to pay the fee. It is important to emphasize that a child who does not pay for a ticket will not be able to occupy a seat because all seats are sold in advance, so parents must be very sure of this in order to avoid misunderstandings. For more information, it is better to contact the Service Center of the transport company directly.
In what cases can I request a refund of my ticket?
It is important to clarify that reimbursement is a policy that depends on each bus company. In companies that do have this possibility, it is usual for the policy to be applied only in case the traveler has not been able to board because of the same transport company. That is, in case the passenger had a problem of his own and / or caused by him or her, the refund policy would not be applied. In addition, it is important to emphasize that reimbursement only begins when the passenger requests it from the Service Center. You can always contact the transport company to find out these policies before buying.

By Peruvian law, a minor cannot travel without the consent of both parents, so the person in charge can prohibit the boarding of the child if such paper is not available.
