I'm sure Made screwed you lmao |

| @Made: i saw the email for the transportation passes. What happened to the regular MTA buses? Are they not running as usual? Can we not just pay with our metro cards (for those of us who actually live in the city and use them?) |

Thanks! :) :)
So according to this, the X80 is $5.50 ROUNDTRIP on a pay-per-ride Metro card, so its only going to be $16.50 for the 3 days?
MTA Special Event Express Buses
Take the 4/5/6 or Metro-North Railroad to 125th St, then take the X80 express Bus on Lexington Ave between 126 and 125 Sts, which runs nonstop to Randall's Island. A $5.50 round-trip fare is collected going to Randall's Island. If you transfer from the subway or bus with your Pay-Per-Ride MetroCard, only $3.25 is deducted. |

^^Only the 7-day express unlimited card. Express buses cost differently. :( :(
Still, according to this info, I would rather pay $16.50 on a pay-per-ride than $30 for a different bus (shuttle) that picks you up from pretty much the same corner LOL..... |

according to your post its 5.50 ROUNDTRIP
that would mean its not express priced (thats 2.25 each way- which is normal bus. Express bus is 5.50 EACH WAY)
so yeah if its express (and anything with an X in front usually is...) then you can you the pay per or express unlimited as you stated.....
but if its truly 5.50 roundtrip- then that means its not express and you can use a regular metro card even an ulimted one
(OR is it 5.50 RT if you buy through made, bc they are giving you a discount??? im so lost)
i fail for coming into this convo late..sorry |

x80?
and here is why im confused...we took this when i went:

Oh, its not *my* post I was just copy/pasting from Made. The RT this confuses me, too, so hopefully Made doesnt have bad info on their cite.
Also, the M60 doesnt actually stop in Randall's, it just goes through it. Trust me, thats the bus right in front of my apartment, and whenever I go to Astoria to visit friends, the Stop goes from 125th to Queens, just passing over Randall's. I thought I could do this the first year and got hosed. :stongue: X80 is apparently the only bus that actually stops on the island, which I have found to be true the last couple years. |

Ohhh well thats good. Ok we have at least one solid answer then
do NOT take the M60! hahaha
were making our way there.
Basically...i think everyone is safe with a pay as you go metro card full of at least 25 bucks |
