OMG!! Can you believe the nerve of the city of Madrid? They're raising the single-trip metro/bus ticket from 1€ to 1.50€ - a 50% price hike!!! Man-oh-man, that really burns my bum!!! The 8th of August is when it starts. See article HERE.

Saludos, MadridMan angryfire

YET...I think that they have changed/are changing the age considered as "youth" for month passes to be a bit higher!
Which is great for me smile

I, too, realize that 1.50€ is STILL cheap for a per-trip ticket, but a 50% increase?? How about a 20% increase per year, instead?
