Cash? Not in This Caliphate, Baby!
Forget your crumpled bills, because Havaist operates in a realm of digital currency. Cash is a big no-no. This might sound scary, but fear not! There are a couple of ways to be a cashless crusader:
Tip: Look for examples to make points easier to grasp.
The Credit Card Crusader: Channel your inner plastic-wielding hero. Most Havaist buses have nifty little card readers that accept your trusty credit or debit card. Just tap, pay, and prepare to be whisked away!
The App-tastic Adventurer: Download the Havaist app (it's your new best friend in Istanbul) before you arrive. Top up the app with some cash (yes, some irony there) and use it to generate a QR code. Show this code to the friendly bus staff and voila! You're good to go.
Bonus Round: The Istanbulkart Wildcard
If you're planning on exploring Istanbul beyond the airport, consider getting an Istanbulkart. This reusable travel card works on the Havaist buses too. Just be sure to load it up with enough credit for your journey.
QuickTip: Slowing down makes content clearer.
