Buy a Transfare ticket when you want to travel on more than one type of transport to make your journey - eg bus and Metro, Metro and ferry, rail and bus, and bus and bus in some areas (call Traveline on 0870 608 2 608 for details). The price varies depending upon the operator. And remember, you must get on your second choice of transport within 90 minutes of buying your ticket. If you don't have an Under 16 Card, or you're travelling after 7.00pm Monday-Friday or at weekends, you will be charged the operator's commercial child Transfare ticket price. If you are (or look like you are) 14 or over, you will be charged the adult fare. So if you live in Tyne and Wear and are under 16, apply for an Under 16 Card now to be entitled to concessionary child fares. For full details about how to apply for an Under 16 Card see Children (under 16) in the Concessionary section.
