Documents required for the Titsa Abono Senior 65

1. Proof of permanent residence
2. Proof of age by passport and/or Tarjeta de Residencia

Needless to say, proof of residence can also be the certificate (certificado) of Empadronamiento that may be attained at the relative Town Hall called Ayuntamiento of the town where the elderly or expats live. A NIE ID certificate may be required as well.
Later, the monthly bus travel card may be validated for another four weeks by paying again at any Titsa bus ticket counter, at MetroTenerife or at the so called Titsa Puntos de recarga (Titsa recharge points) some of which are Petrol service stations or small shops near bus stations.

When will the new Titsa Discount for residents older than 65 become effective?

It will officially start on February 01 of 2019.  All these new fare reductions have been released for the Media on January 30,2019. This was done by the Tenerife Government Cabildo President Carlos Alonso, the Consejera de Acción Social, Coromoto Yanes and Miguel Becerra the director for the commuter mobility of the islands.

The Abono Senior 65 priced like the youth card

By the way, this monthly bus travel card for the elderly costs as much as the one called Tajeta Joven ( Card for the youth), while all children below 10 years of age can receive cards that entitle to free bus fares.

Mind that there is another Titsa novelty card in a similar context. It's the card for large families (familias numerosas) Those may now travel with Titsa in unlimited ways for as little as Euro 15 per month  from February 01, 2019 onward. 

Needless to say a Titsa travel card for a monthly set fee of Euro 30 is better for the elderly than the Titsa resident bus travel card for Euro 47.

From Titsa Abono Senior back to Tenerife Transport

Amazing free Titsa bus travel news for residents, for the Senior 65 age group, the handicapped as well as for students

The only conditions are that 10 voyages must be shown on the digital card every month. The card must also be validated every 30 days. It is not clear though if this Tenerife transport will still be free in 2024.
