The City says WSU students, staff, and faculty ride by showing valid WSU identification when boarding. WSU's student fees page says the Student Transit Program allocation, together with the Student Transit Fee, allows students to ride Pullman Transit throughout campus and the City of Pullman. WSU Transportation Services points riders to Pullman Transit schedules and the PTBusBeacon app, and lists a campus Park and Ride lot at Valley Road and Merman Drive where permits are not required during the day.
For the 2026 football dates it lists (October 24, November 14, and a November 28 FLEX game), the City's Football Service page names Flag Lane as the primary drop-off and pick-up location and links a brochure PDF.
The City's route list names no route to Moscow. Two intercity operators' own pages show trips. On October 21, 2026, Northwestern Stage Lines listed Pullman departures at 9:05 a.m. and 7:15 p.m. from 1295 NE North Fairway Rd, arriving 20 to 25 minutes later at the University of Idaho (709 S Deakin Ave, $17.00) or downtown Moscow (1006 Railroad St, $19.00). Its Moscow to Pullman page listed departures at 7:35 a.m., 7:40 a.m., 2:20 p.m., and 2:25 p.m. The operator's help page says no printed ticket is needed and cash riders must call at least 1 hour before departure and pay exact change. Greyhound's page also listed, on October 21, 2026, a first departure at 9:05 a.m. and a last at 7:15 p.m. from the same Pullman address, with no fare shown.
Wheatland Express: as of October 21, 2026, wheatlandexpress.com redirects to the Starline Collection website, and the pages linked here do not say whether Wheatland Express and Starline are related. WSU's Wheatland Express page lists a weekend bus, a Spokane (GEG) airport shuttle, and a Vacation Express from Pullman to Seattle. None of the pages linked here describes a regular Pullman-to-Moscow Wheatland Express route. In Moscow, SMART Transit lists East and West fixed routes and a Dial-A-Ride its page calls Fare Free, with weekday and Saturday hours on its hours page. The three SMART pages linked here do not mention Pullman.
The City's Airporter page says that effective September 8, 2026, Pullman Transit serves the Pullman-Moscow Regional Airport with on-demand rides that must be reserved by 1 p.m. the day before your flight, or by Saturday for Monday flights because offices are temporarily closed Sundays. Dispatch confirms a pickup at the nearest active Pullman Transit stop, with terminal drop-off planned 75 minutes before departure. The fare is $1.00 one way, drivers do not carry cash, tokens and passes are accepted, and cards are not accepted at this time. It serves scheduled flights on all days except Thanksgiving Day, Christmas Day, and New Year's Day. Use the City's Book a Ride form or call the Transit office.
The airport's ground transportation page lists College Cabs, Moscow Taxi, and ICU Transports, Lyft and Uber links, and complimentary guest shuttles at five Palouse hotels. Its rental car page lists Avis, Budget, and Hertz. The airport's "Bus Schedule" link pointed to a City page that returned a page-not-found (404) error on October 21, 2026, so use the Airporter page above.
For Spokane, Northwestern Stage Lines listed Pullman to Spokane departures at 8:05 a.m. and 2:50 p.m. on October 21, 2026, to downtown Spokane or Spokane International Airport (GEG), at $24.99. The Starline Spokane Airport Express charges $59 one way, requires reservations 48 hours ahead, and runs only on listed dates, such as northbound November 20 to 22, 2026.
Pullman Transit, run by the City of Pullman, operates the local routes. As of October 21, 2026, the City's fall schedule lists Blue, Loop, Silver, Paradise, ApartmentLand Express + Campus, Wheat, and Lentil, and the City also runs Dial-A-Ride and the Pullman Airporter.
As of October 21, 2026, the City of Pullman lists cash fares of $1.00 for adults and $0.60 for Disabled/Senior riders, and a $30.00 adult monthly pass. Transfers are free, and youth 18 and under ride free with a youth pass.
