Frequently Asked Questions

+ Bus Tickets

+ Where can I buy tickets?
Single trip tickets can be purchased from the driver. Please use exact change as change will not be provided. Advance tickets can be purchased using the “Token Transit” app (available in the Apple Store and the Google Play Store.) Passengers purchasing through the Token Transit app will have a ticket barcode in the app. Please do not activate this ticket until you are boarding the bus (tickets will expire within 30 minutes of activation).

+ Can I reserve a seat in advance?
Seat reservations are not available on the 380 Express. Reliability is key to customers being satisfied with the service and returning to use it again and again. As a commuter service, the closely spaced departure times for 380 Express allow the service to accommodate passengers more easily. 380 Express also has a spare bus available which can be deployed to meet peaks in customer demand.

+ Can I Cancel My Trip After Ticket Purchase?
Cancellations for refund will not be accepted for 380 Express service. Token Transit app tickets will be valid for up to six months from purchase date and can be used on any 380 Express trips within the six month period. Once a ticket has been used the designated number of times (whether 1, 10, or monthly) the ticket is no longer valid, regardless of the expiration date.

+ Can I use my 10-punch ticket for group travel?
Multi ride tickets are only intended for individual use by frequent 380 Express riders. Multi-ride tickets may not be used for group purchases. For group travel, please purchase the necessary amount of single-ride tickets.

+ Can I purchase a ticket for someone else with the Token Transit app?
The token transit app allows anyone to easily purchase and send tickets from the following link: https://tokentransit.com/send/380express

Just select the pass type and enter the phone number of the person you would like to send to. If they do not already have the Token Transit app, they will be sent a link to download the app and the pass you sent will be pre-loaded and ready to use once they open the app.

+ RIDING ON THE 380 EXPRESS BUSES
