The second scenario is when your boarding point is a bus stop and not a terminal. In this case, you will receive an M-ticket that you will have to produce before boarding your bus.

The bus took FIVE hours longer than advertised. No communication, no proper breaks! Took us 17 hours to get from Medellin to Cartagena, without being in significant traffic jams. The bus was comfortable and the toilet worked, but a five hour delay is unacceptable!
