Tickets are only valid within the arcobaleno area, and a few operators have further restrictions on which tickets are accepted on which services. Ticket prices are based on zones, with 49 zones covering the whole of the arcobaleno area, whilst season tickets use a coarser zone structure of only 16 zones. Tickets are available from the offices of the operators. Ticket machines sell a range of tickets at railway stations and urban bus stops.
