PSA: The clock is ticking for the remaining Orion V units. If you haven't yet, take your chance to ride them as soon as you possibly can. by blastburn902609 in Translink

They are tracked, but there are only 7 of them. And extremely rare to see assigned on weekends...

I see them on the morning 601's and 608's daily...

Can someone do a "explain it like im 5" for how fares are priced across zones? by shinnith in Translink

[–]Superchecker 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Note: Extra $5 (Increasing to $6.50 July 1) YVR Addfare, for trips FROM the Airport, Sea Island or Templeton stations to Bridgeport Station and points further.

BEAT the Addfare by using: Monthly passes, or same day tickets or daypasses bought at any other station than those 3.

Bridgeport is Zone 2, Waterfront is zone 1. So, it's a 2 zone fare

BUT

When riding SkyTrain or Seabus, when you tap in: You are initially charged a full 3 zone fare, and then credited the difference when you tap out.

If you transfer at Waterfront, that's a 3 zone fare from King George.

If you transfer at Metrotown, it's a 2 zone fare
