Spain Launches €60 Single Monthly Transport Pass

Spain is getting ready for a big change in public transport.
Soon, people will be able to travel across the country using just one monthly transport pass.

This new pass will cost €60 per month and will allow unlimited travel on many trains and buses in Spain.

The announcement was made by Spain’s Prime Minister, Pedro Sánchez, and it could make travel much easier and cheaper for millions of people.

What Is the New €60 Transport Pass?

The new transport pass is a single monthly ticket that works across Spain.

With this pass, you can travel as much as you want on:

• Cercanías trains (called Rodalies in Barcelona)

• Media Distancia trains

• State-run bus services

You don’t need to worry about zones, regions, or different tickets anymore.
One pass. One price. Unlimited travel.

When Will It Start?

The government plans to launch the pass in the second half of January.
It will be officially approved in the last Council of Ministers meeting of the year.

Who Can Use It and How Much Does It Cost?

For most people

• €60 per month

• Unlimited travel on state-owned trains and buses

For young people under 26

• €30 per month

• Same unlimited travel benefits

This makes travel much cheaper for students and young workers.

How Much Money Can People Save?

According to the government:

• Around 2 million people will benefit

• Some travelers could save up to 60% on their monthly transport costs

This is especially helpful for people who travel between cities every day for work or study.

Does It Include Metro and City Buses?

Not yet.

For now, the €60 pass only works on state-run transport.
This means:

• Metro

• Local city buses

• Trams

are not included at the moment.

However, the government has asked autonomous communities and city councils to join the system in the future.
If they agree, the pass could later include all local transport, making it even more useful in cities like Barcelona and Madrid.

What About Other Transport Discounts?

Good news:
Other transport discounts will continue until 2026, including:

• 50% discounts on local transport passes

• Free travel offers for frequent Cercanías and Media Distancia users

The new €60 pass will exist alongside these benefits.

Why Is This Important?

This new pass aims to:

• Make public transport simpler

• Help people save money

• Encourage eco-friendly travel

• Reduce the need for cars

• Make travel fairer across all regions of Spain

The new €60 transport pass could change how people travel in Spain.
With one ticket, travelers can move across regions easily, without confusion or extra costs.

Now, everyone is waiting to see if local governments will join the plan and make it a true all-in-one travel pass for the whole country.

If they do, public transport in Spain may never be the same again.
