College 6 Tix Pass:

One of our BEST deals is our college 6-Tix Pass. This is 6 one-way trips, for only $96.00. If you are traveling from UNH to Boston, this would cost about $40 round-trip alone. If you have the college 6-tix pass, you are paying closer to $29 for your round-trip fare. Points north are an even greater savings. These passes are good for one calendar year from the date of purchase. Hold onto them for when you need to use them!
