Плати за проезд через OMNY
OMNY — бесконтактная оплата проезда в метро и автобусах MTA: прикладывай к считывателю банковскую карту с бесконтактной оплатой, телефон или часы. Если хочешь платить наличными, купи карту OMNY в автомате на станции метро или в магазине-партнёре (адреса есть на сайте OMNY). Прикладывай одну и ту же карту или устройство: после 12 поездок за 7 дней остальные поездки до конца этого периода бесплатны. Поездка в метро и обычном автобусе стоит $3, в экспресс-автобусе — $7.25; тарифы меняются, так что проверяй их на сайте MTA.
