Travelers from various regions in Kosovo say that after the oil price is cut even the price of tickets, as they add that for student travelers, it is unaffordable.

For some citizens it is unaffordable, because there are many students going from Yunik to Pristina, Peja and dependent on the resolution, which is”, he said.
Jevdet Spahia, says tickets of more than 5 euros, are affordable for parents who finance children during their studies in distant places.
The price of the tickets, of buses, has had to be released, because oil has been released, gas has been released and because it has been expensive when it's expensive and oil, now let them release these.

Perhaps he has two three children, at the same time in his studies, it's unaffordable”, he stressed.
Sheref Tepek, while complaining of the high price of tickets, considers that the pricework from bus lines looks like business.
