Paid Area Kiosk Quick Trips are only valid for what type of fare?

Paid Area Kiosk Quick Trips are designed specifically for the exit fare within transit systems. When a passenger purchases a Quick Trip fare from a kiosk located in the paid area (often near station entrances), they are acquiring a ticket that allows them to exit the station after their journey. This fare type is particularly useful as it caters to non-recurring trips, enabling efficient payment for users who may not need a full monthly or weekly transit pass.

In contrast, fares such as inbound or outbound tickets generally pertain to entering or traveling within the system rather than specifically catering to the exit from the system. Transfer fares are utilized when a passenger is switching between different modes of transport or routes, which does not align with the specific function of the Quick Trip fare. Thus, the Quick Trip’s intended purpose as an exit fare effectively defines its validity.
