The bus fare of 7.5 AED is for one person for the single one-way trip from the first station to the last station. If the passenger leaves the bus at a station in-between, the bus fare will be reduced.
I strongly recommend you to travel by 88 bus only if you have an nol card with minimum 7.5 Dhs balance. Because the bus fare can be paid by nol cards only, the bus 88 does not accept cash or any other payment mode.
