The following does NOT apply to the local Giro buses in Albufeira.

The two local bus companies EVA and Frota Azul are changing their pre paid passes and season tickets. If you have an old pass, for example to travel between Guia or Olhos D'Agua and Albufeira, you will need to get a new one at Albufeira bus station after 31st July.

Apparently these new passes will be rechargeable via a new website or an 'app' but there are no details forthcoming.

The pre paid passes offer a discount of up to 50% on the cash fare paid on board. Monthly season tickets (journeys between two pre defined points) are discounted at 50% of the cash fare and are capped at €40 per month.
