This guide will provide you with some important guidelines when travelling with us!
A ticket or monthly pass is non-transferable and non-refundable. Only the person whose name appears on the ticket or pass may use it. Limocar may require proof of identity to validate the customer’s identity and the name on the ticket.
If you benefit from a discount on the regular fare, a supporting document (proof of age, student card, etc.) may be required by Limocar in order to validate the passenger’s eligibility for the discount. Limocar reserves the right to refuse a ticket or pass if the fare cannot be justified by the passenger.
An unused ticket in a booklet remains valid for 365 from the date of purchase. A monthly pass is valid only for the applicable month, regardless of the date of purchase. After these periods, the ticket or pass expires without refund.
You must make sure to reserve your seat for a specific departure online or by contacting Customer Service at sac@limocar.ca. Priority will be given at all times to passengers who have reserved their seat on board.
You can use your ticket or pass for any journey between the destinations shown on the ticket or pass. Example: You have a ticket from Sherbrooke to Montreal. You could decide to get off at Longueuil, as this stop is between Sherbrooke and Montreal.
