Melbourne SkyBus gone up again

I believe Pensioner Concession card holders are free on the weekends @RB001

I found in SA that if you present your Vic Seniors card, it works there...... but I guess our state needs the revenue!

Seniors Card holders from other states are eligible to travel on concession fares.

In Victoria, concession card holders do not get free travel (unless they also hold a Victorian Seniors card - and then only on weekends in zones 1/2 or when using one of their free travel passes).

@clifford, the weekend / public holiday travel cap limits the concession total daily fare to $3.80 ($5.50 on normal weekdays) for travel anywhere within Victoria - conceivably you could travel Albury to Bairnsdale for that.

Metropolitan fares - Public Transport Victoria

We define the metropolitan area as Melbourne and its suburbs. The zones you travel in and ticket type determines the fare you pay.

There’s signboards at Southern Cross station that says other Seniors outside of Victoria are eligible for Concession fares

So I swapped my adult Myki for a new card which has a black texta C on the back of it

Actually, interstate Seniors Card need to approach Adelaide Railway Stations AdMet staff to put the note onto it.
SA Seniors issued card, have free all times AdMet access to public transport, but just visitors Seniors Card members from interstate, if they try to tap their Seniors Card onto Admet card readers, it probably wont work.
They would firstly have to ARS, where there is now the one and only Admet staff counter available.

When visiting Adelaide, interstate seniors with a state-issued Seniors Card can access a MetroTicket for 14 consecutive days of free off-peak travel in Adelaide.

If more than 10 days in advance of travel they can order online, otherwise present themselves at one of a few specified locations to obtain one.
