Question

I have a question about Senior Half-Fare MetroCards.

 

Seniors are allowed to get half fare on express buses except between 6AM-10AM and 3PM-7PM.

 

My question is, if they started the trip on a local bus, and get on an express bus during peak hours, does the person pay half fare or full fare?

 

For example, if a senior gets on the subway at 2:30 PM, and then gets on an express bus at 3:30 PM, does the farebox take an additional $1.65 from the MetroCard or $4.40?

it will take the other 1.65 off the metrocard.(off Peak) on peak hours the 4.40

But that was my question: Is the express fare based on the time when you boarded the express bus or the first vehicle of your trip (the subway in this case)?

[brokecrazy 16]

What time you board the Express bus is what matters fare wise.

Full fare 6-10am and 3-7pm in BOTH directions.(Used to be peak direction only but changed it without me knowing)

Including X23 and X24

BxM4C 1/2 fare 10am-3pm.
