< New York Subway and Bus Fares Raised for the First Time in 8 Years! >

Public transportation is very convenient in New York.

You can go anywhere with a flat rate 24 hours a day

One of the charms of NY, the city that never sleeps


The main MTA subway and bus

From August 20, 2023
It was decided to raise the price for the first time in 8 years.


●One ride was $2.75→$2.90 ●7-day unlimited rides from $33→$34 ●30-day unlimited rides from $127→$132

Finally, in a few years
The goal is to raise one ride to $3.50.

Well,
The yellow metro card that was one of the symbols of NY
It is scheduled to be phased out in 2024.

Those big, old-fashioned, inflexible metrocard vending machines are slowly disappearing.

Soon everything will change to "OMNY for contactless payment"

The NY subway will also be at a major turning point.


The original NY symbol coin type "token" was abolished 20 years ago

Replaces the current yellow MetroCard

And from next year, only contactless touch payments with credit cards, smartphones, etc. will be available.

If you have a yellow metro card, keep it as a memento.


In any case, the subway
Approximately 6 million users per day
An important "foot" for New Yorkers.

It would be great if you could efficiently ride the subway and bus and enjoy it 24 hours a day.

<Chanel fashion show on the New York subway>

New York's Subway is used by 6 million people a day.

Last night, a Chanel fashion show was held at the subway station.

(Please see the three photos below)

New Chanel brand ambassadors include hip-hop stars A$AP (Rihanna's husband) and Bon Jovi.

Many fashionable celebrities came to see it.

The show, with its unique ideas that are so typical of New York, became a hot topic.


At NY Subway, you're never surprised no matter what happens right in front of you.

Not to mention the wide variety of subway performers,

He dramatically proposed to a packed crowd of passengers.

They even held wedding ceremonies in the vehicles.

They start cooking on the train while it's moving and serve it to passengers.

Keanu Reeves was sitting next to me...


One of the charms of New York is that such unreality occurs in the subway, where it is most real.

Please come visit New York and experience some happy happenings⭐︎
