NJ Transit at Newark Penn Station
NJ Transit lines here
NJ Transit prices a rail ticket on the distance between your origin and destination. The fare is the same on every train: there is no peak surcharge and no off-peak discount, so the one-way price shown here is the price at 8 AM on a Tuesday and at noon on a Sunday. The zone numbers that appear in NJ Transit's own data are internal identifiers, not something printed on a ticket, so this site does not show them.
One-way, round-trip, ten-trip, weekly and monthly tickets are sold in the NJ Transit app and at station ticket machines. If a machine was available where you boarded, buying on board costs extra. Children under five ride free with a fare-paying adult, older children and seniors ride at a reduced rate, and disabled riders ride at a reduced rate with the relevant ID.
Where this site has no fare for an NJ Transit pair, it is because that fare has not yet been loaded from the timetable it is printed in, not because the trip is free. The fare tables are read from NJ Transit's published line timetables, and every value is checked against the operator's own price ratios before it is shown.
PATH at Newark Penn Station
PATH lines here
PATH charges one flat fare for any ride, however far you go and whichever line you take. There is no peak price, no zone and no distance charge, so a one-stop hop from Exchange Place to World Trade Center costs the same as Newark to 33rd Street. That is why the trip pages on this site show one fare for every PATH pair.
You pay at the turnstile with a PATH SmartLink card, a contactless bank card or phone through TAPP, or a pay-per-ride MetroCard. Unlimited-ride MetroCards and OMNY are not accepted on PATH. Reduced fares for seniors are issued on a Senior SmartLink card. Multi-trip bundles bring the per-ride price down for regular riders and are loaded onto the same SmartLink card.
Transfers between PATH lines at Journal Square, Grove Street, Hoboken and Exchange Place are within the paid area, so a journey that needs a change is still one fare. Transfers to the New York City Subway, NJ Transit and Hudson-Bergen Light Rail are separate fares.
