Most of the benefits are the same on buses and water buses, only the benefits for children differ.<\/p>\n<p align=\"justify\">The law differentiates between children on board by age. Children aged 7 to 13 years (inclusive) receive a 50% discount. From the age of 14, the child must already pay the full ticket price. So higher class students in schools and students in universities don&#8217;t get a discount here, unlike on city buses.<\/p>\n<p align=\"justify\">It is worth mentioning that children up to the age of 7 years (up to a maximum of two per adult) can travel free of charge, but without taking up a separate seating position. You can take this seat and\/or sail independently with a 50% discount on your ticket.<\/p>\n<p align=\"justify\">Klaip\u0117da City Council has also introduced a 20% discount on the full price of the ticket when using a physical Klaip\u0117da card topped up with cash.<\/p>\n<p align=\"justify\"><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">Waterbus fare table:<\/span><em><br \/>\n<\/em>Full price ticket &#8211; 5 Eur<br \/>\nTicket with 20% discount (valid only with a physical Klaip\u0117da card) &#8211; 4 Eur<br \/>\nTicket with 50% discount &#8211; 2,50 Eur<br \/>\nTicket with 80% discount &#8211; 1 eur.<br \/>\nPassengers purchasing a ticket with a 50% \/ 80% discount must have a document confirming their entitlement to the discount.
