This ticket shall be paid on the automatic machines.
b) Pre-purchased Exclusive Parking Ticket – it grants the respective holder the right to 5 or 10 entrances on the Parking Lot for a period of 24 consecutive hours; when this period ends, in case the Customer does not have enough pre-purchased tickets, the amount to pay is due accordingly to the tariff of simple tickets combined with parking, for periods of consecutive 24 hours.
