With the new regulation, when at least 2 and at most 4 people want to travel with tickets on the same bus and route, they will be able to benefit from the discount if they document that they are a family.
To benefit from the discount, it will be sufficient for passengers to share the same surname or prove that they are a family with a document in accordance with the relevant legislation.

Uraloğlu announced that the regulation will not be a mandatory practice for companies.
The new regulation can be implemented starting from Monday, March 17.
