Travel in All Zones Without Extra Charge on Weekends\/Holidays<\/strong>
\nIn September 2012, Stif introduced a new formula for traveling\u00a0within the five zones of the department, \u00cele-de-France, which includes Paris using the Navigo Monthly and Navigo Annual passes (not the weekly, Mobilis or Paris Visite).<\/p>\n

This new service is for the metro, bus, tramway, weekend night buses (Noctilien), RER and regional Transilien trains for zones 1-5 explains the new system for reduced fares within the \u00cele-de-France area. This service is valid from\u00a0Friday midnight to Sunday midnight and holidays, midnight to midnight.<\/p>\n

On a Saturday, we used our Navigo (annual pass) to travel between downtown Paris and Val d’Europe for La Vall\u00e9e Shopping Outlet Mall. The pass worked going and worked returning. Our annual pass is for Zones 1 and 2. Val d’Europe and Disneyland Paris are in Zone 5. The medieval town of Provins<\/strong> with its josting, ramparts and legends of knights is located at the edge of Zone 5.<\/p>\n

During weekdays, your pass will work for your purchased zones and a nominal charge is added for the extra zones. This is a savings from the previous system when you had to buy a separate ticket for the entire journey, apart from your Navigo.<\/p>\n

The cost of the new weekend\/holiday privilege is 26 million euros annually. Average increases in various public transportation costs will increase. The annual Navigo cost goes up by two percent. The tourist favorite, Mobilis pass, Ticket jeune week-end increases by seven percent. The Paris Visite card increases five percent. The project will be completely in place by the end of 2012.<\/p>\n

Buy your\u00a0Navigo<\/strong>\u00a0monthly pass at any Metro, RER and tramway stations and at certain bus terminals. The ticket window has the words: \u201cInformation\u201d and \u201cGuichet\u201d and have your photo taken.<\/p>\n

Replacement is only available on the monthly and annual cards, not the weekly cards. Only monthly and annual Navigos have unlimited zone privileges on the weekends in Ile-de-France.<\/p>\n

Recharge your Navigo at the green and purple kiosks with a credit card. If your credit card has no smart chip<\/strong> (puce) then go to the ticket window for payment. \u00a0Recharge your Navigo at CIC and Cr\u00e9dit Mutuel kiosks, if you bank with them.<\/p>\n

Using cash?<\/strong> Go to the kiosks with the brownish\/orange band at the top containing the icons for CB (carte bancaire\/credit card), coins and bills.<\/div>\n
