SENIORS RIDE FOR JUST $10 IN MAY
The Saskatchewan Transportation Company (STC) is offering seniors another opportunity to explore Saskatchewan at a great price. Throughout the month of May 2012, Seniors 60+ will be able to ride anywhere along the STC network for only $10 one-way.
"We offer this promotion as a means to present seniors with the opportunity to get out and connect with friends and family or explore Saskatchewan in a convenient manner," said Minister Jim Reiter in announcing the sale.
STC reaches 290 communities. The extensive coverage STC provides gives Saskatchewan seniors province-wide access to this offer. STC has offered similar promotions since September of 2009.
"We were impressed with the increase of ridership due to the senior seat sales in 2011," said STC President and CEO Shawn Grice. "We hope this year's senior seat sale will provide our riders with a chance to reacquaint themselves with the positive travel experience that STC has become known for."
In 2011, senior ridership during seat sale months grew 9 per cent over 2010. Ridership growth was driven partly by improving amenities on coaches. STC coaches have been equipped with free Wi-Fi, power outlets, and increased leg room in order to advance the level of convenience and comfort provided to passengers.
