*Subway Metrocard information

  • Purchase a multi-ride card (Pay-Per-Ride, not Unlimited Ride) @ $2.75 per ride. Carry some cash ($10 or $20 bills) in case the machine does not recognize your card from Europe.
  • For the meeting alone, you will need 6 rides; you get an 11% discount with a 10-ride card. Keep your empty card to refill, otherwise there is a $1 charge for a new card.
  • You may need to practice swiping the card at the turnstiles: if you swipe too fast or too slow, the turnstile will not open. Swipe in one smooth, “confident” motion. The screen will say Go. Good luck!
