Riding tips

Paying
  • OMNY (tap-to-pay) works at every turnstile — MetroCard was retired in early 2026
  • Base fare is $3.00; 12 taps in a week and the rest of that week is free
Timing
  • 7–9 AM and 5–7 PM are the crowded windows on weekdays
  • Express trains (the diamond-marked lines) skip local stops — check the sign before boarding
Etiquette
  • On escalators, stand right, walk left
  • Let riders off before you board
