Are there discounts available for seniors or students?

Yes, the Chicago Transit Authority offers discounts for seniors and students. Seniors aged 65 and older are eligible for reduced fare cards, allowing them to receive a discount on fares for bus and train rides. Senior discounted fares are available during off-peak hours on weekdays and all day on weekends. Students aged 7 to 20 years old can also apply for reduced fare cards, which provide them with discounted fares for transportation. These reduced fare cards are available to both public and private school students. To qualify for these discounts, seniors and students must meet certain eligibility requirements and provide proof of age or student status. This provides an affordable and convenient transportation option for seniors and students traveling within Chicago.
