UP Express fare price reduced

Post by arezania »

VICTORY has been achieved

Metrolinx lowered the price from 7.41 back down to 4.94 one way due to pressure from the customers and this petition

Thank you to all who signed. This wasn’t an easy battle!

Cheers,

It’s actually going to be free for all X service members and members of their immediate families and or a companion. It also includes all other GO transit.

First it was fishing licenses in Ontario now GO transit.

Last time I was in Toronto the fare was $12 and after just looking at the website, it appears it hasn't changed. Am I missing something? It still shows $12.70 one way......

You have to register your email and fill out a form at the UP express desk at pearson airport. It also expires, so you have to renew it yearly to be able to buy the discounted employee tickets.
