10 * Two hours fares

10 x 2 Hour Metcards

A 10x2hr ticket is a multiple use single ticket that is valid for 2 hours from the next full hour on the first validation of the day and acts like a daily, expiring at 3am the following morning on a second validation in the one day. If the ticket has not passed it's first validation period, the ticket will just validate. No new ink impressions will be made as no new ticket will be processed as the original one is still good. The ticket will have 10 lines of time stamps on it by the time it expires.

For Example:

*Validate at 9:55am - expires 12:00
*Re-Validate at 11:00 the same day- nothing happens because the first validation period has not yet expired, ticket still expires 12:00
*Re-Validate at 12:01pm the same day - expires 3am the next morning

10 x 2hr tickets can be purchased at train stations, The MetShop, The Metcard Helpline and the Metlink Website.

 

5 * Daily Fares

A five in one ticket, the 5xDaily works like 5 daily tickets. Similar to the 10x2 hour ticket, the 5xdaily is stamped 5 times, one for each day of travel.

5xdaily tickets are available from premium stations
