11 Best Travel System Strollers

Getting around with your little one is much easier if you have the right stroller. Many parents find a 3-in-1 travel system stroller practical because it includes a stroller and also an infant car seat that doubles as a baby carrier.

A travel system stroller is great because it can be used from the moment you take your newborn home from the hospital until well into toddlerhood.

Based on more than 4,500 Pampers Parents votes, we’ve put together a list of the best travel system strollers. We also cover which features to look out for when comparison shopping, as well as some safety tips for using your new stroller and car seat.

Why Choose a Travel System Stroller

Travel system strollers can adapt as the baby grows, making them particularly appealing to parents who like the idea of a combo product that fulfills different needs.

A travel system stroller typically includes an infant car seat (which sometimes doubles as a carrier), a car seat base, and the main stroller unit, which holds the infant car seat and can convert into a toddler stroller when the time comes.

Here are some pluses of owning a travel system:

It can allow you to move your sleeping baby from the car to the stroller without disturbing her.

Some models have a stroller seat that reclines flat, so it can be used when your infant is 6 months or younger. As your baby gets older, the backrest can be adjusted to a higher, more comfortable position.

Once your baby outgrows the infant car seat, she can continue to use the stroller part of the travel system into toddlerhood.

Even though a travel system stroller can cost more than most standard strollers (some, like the UPPAbaby Stroller, cost over $1,000), you get more bang for your buck because you don’t need to buy an infant car seat, infant stroller, baby carrier , and toddler stroller separately.

The even better news? Pampers Parents recommend several travel system strollers that are around $300 or less.

These are the travel system strollers Pampers Parents chose as their favorites:

1. Chicco Bravo Trio Travel System

Why pick this one? Pampers Parents chose the Chicco Bravo as their absolute favorite travel system. With features like a one-touch braking pedal, all-wheel suspension, swiveling front wheels, and a three-position adjustable padded handle, this stroller has a lot going for it.

The way this travel system works is that the rear-facing infant car seat clicks into either the stroller or the car seat base. The car seat base installs securely and can remain fastened in your car.

Once your baby has reached the maximum weight and height limit of the infant car seat, you can shift to using the stroller seat. However, that also means you’ll have to get a new forward-facing car seat that suits your little one’s bigger size.

The stroller includes a parent tray with two cup holders and a storage compartment as well as a child tray with two cup holders. The stroller’s canopy is fully adjustable, and the backrest reclines for added comfort.

Highlights: The stroller has an innovative fold-and-carry handle with a one-hand, quick-fold feature. The stroller seat and canopy can be removed for cleaning. The infant car seat features removable padding for use with your newborn.

Price * : about $379.99 on Amazon.com

Pampers Parents pros and cons:

Pros: It’s very easy to use and fold up with only one hand.

Cons: It could be lighter, and it would be better if you could have your baby either face forward or backward in the stroller.

2. Graco Fastaction Fold Jogger Click Connect Baby Travel System

Why pick this one? If you’re looking for a travel system stroller that’s also good for jogging, then the Graco Fastaction is for you.

The stroller features three air-filled rubber tires for a smooth ride on any terrain. The front wheel easily locks in place for added stability when jogging. Unlock it for full maneuverability when strolling.

The rear-facing infant car seat easily clicks into both the stroller and the car seat base. Installed in your car, the car seat can recline to four different positions to suit your infant’s need for head and neck support.

Both the stroller and the infant car seat feature canopies, but the stroller’s canopy includes a peek-a-boo window.

Highlights: The stroller features a one-hand folding mechanism, which the manufacturer claims takes one second to operate.

Price * : about $269.99 on Amazon.com

Pros: It’s easy to use, and it folds quickly.

Cons: The stroller is rather bulky and does not fold very compactly. The handle is not adjustable. The wheels need constant refilling.

3. UPPAbaby Full-Size Vista Infant Baby Stroller

Why pick this one? This bundle from UPPAbaby includes three components: a stroller seat, an infant car seat, and a bassinet that attaches to the stroller.

This combo allows for multiple configurations, starting with the bassinet for strolling with your sleeping newborn, the infant car seat for traveling in the car, and the toddler seat, which can be positioned to face forward or backward in the stroller frame once your little one is bigger.

The infant car seat includes a padded insert for a baby that weighs between four and eight pounds.

Keep in mind that once your baby has reached the maximum height and weight limit of the car seat, you’ll have to upgrade to a new one.

The stroller features front and rear shock-absorbing suspension and a one-button telescoping handlebar so that you can adjust it to you or your partner’s height.

When you’re not using the stroller, you can fold it up in one step. However, some Pampers Parents noted that it requires both hands to fold. The stroller stands when folded, which makes it easier to handle and store.

Additional items such as a bassinet storage bag, bassinet bug shield, toddler seat rain shield, and toddler seat bug shield are included.

Highlights: Both the bassinet and the infant car seat feature breathable, moisture-wicking fabric that is also removable for spot cleaning. The storage basket below the stroller can hold up to 30 pounds.

Price * : about $1,199.98 on Amazon.com

Pros: It’s easy to use, made of quality materials, and it can be used to accommodate more children.

Cons: It’s very heavy and very expensive.

4. Baby Trend Expedition Jogger Travel System

Why pick this one? This jogging stroller from Baby Trend features a swiveling and locking front wheel, with all-terrain tires. The wheels can be quick-released for extra-compact storage.

The stroller features a convenient parent tray and a child tray. There is also a large storage basket under the stroller for things like diaper bags and other necessities.

The five-point harness on both the stroller and infant car seat is easy to adjust with one hand, and there is a push-button release.

The car seat base features four positions so that you can adjust the infant car seat to the proper height for your little one. And the infant car seat has a multi-grip handle that is easy to hold and carry when you’re transferring your baby from the car to the stroller base.

Highlights: For easy maneuvering, the push handle is extra wide, ergonomically shaped, and foam padded. The footrest features reflectors to provide better visibility in low-light conditions.

Price*: about $132.99 on Amazon.com

Pros: It’s easy to maneuver over many different terrains with one hand, and it’s affordable.

Cons: The storage basket could be bigger and it isn’t as easy to access when your baby is in the stroller.

5. Evenflo Vive Travel System

Why pick this one? Unlike the other travel system strollers that made the Pampers Parents list, the Evenflo Vive Travel System’s infant car seat has an extended weight rating of up to 35 pounds, so you can use it a bit longer than the other car seats on this list.

Eventually you will have to upgrade to a new car seat, but at least with this product it will be able to happen later.

The stroller’s 13-inch-thick EVA wheels feature shock absorption in the front, which helps make the stroller more stable.

In addition to the storage basket under the stroller base, there is a storage pocket on the back of your baby’s seat.

Highlights: The stroller features a very slim 16-inch fold, so it doesn’t take up too much space in the trunk of your car or when in storage.

Price * : about $106.99 on Amazon.com

Pros: It’s lightweight and it’s easy to move from the car to the stroller.

Cons: The wheels aren’t the best and they tend to be squeaky.

6. Baby Trend Skyline 35 Travel System

Why pick this one? Although it’s not a jogging stroller, the Baby Trend Skyline features three wheels, which can help make it easier to maneuver much like a jogger-style stroller. The rear wheels are lockable for when you need to put on the brakes.

Handy features of this stroller include a handle that is adjustable to your height, and one-handed foldability.

The parent tray includes a covered compartment for storing items you may want to keep secured nearby, but there’s also an extra-large storage basket below the stroller.

The infant car seat of this travel system includes a reversible infant insert and a six-position crotch belt adjustment. The car seat base can be adjusted in four different ways with the push of a button to ensure the infant car seat is level.

Highlights: Both the car seat’s and the stroller’s canopies are made of two panels, but the stroller canopy also includes a peek-a-boo window on the front and mesh windows on the sides.

Price * : about $161.99 on Amazon.com

Pros: The price is affordable and it’s easy to fold up and open.

Cons: The buckle on the infant car seat could be easier to use.

7. Safety 1st Smooth Ride Travel System

Why pick this one? Designed with travel in mind, the Safety 1st Smooth Ride makes it easy to transfer your baby’s car seat to the stroller with its QuickClick technology. Once your baby outgrows the infant car seat, you can continue to use the stroller through toddlerhood, but keep in mind that you’ll have to purchase a new car seat.

Folding the stroller is easy with the one-handed operation. Once folded, it can stand on its own without tipping over.

The rear-facing infant car seat includes head and body inserts for your newborn as well as four adjustable harness heights to help you achieve the perfect fit for your baby.

Highlights: The large stroller canopy features a flip-out visor and a mesh peek-a-boo window.

Price * : about $179.99 on Amazon.com

Pros: The stroller is easy to handle, it’s easy to travel with, and it’s affordable.

Cons: The storage basket could be bigger and the canopy could be more durable.

8. Chicco Viaro Travel System

Why pick this one? The Chicco Viaro Travel System features a lightweight frame and three-wheel maneuverability, making it an appealing option if you travel a lot. The one-handed fold feature makes it even easier to handle when you’re trying to get it in and out of the trunk, and opened up and ready to go quickly.

Like many of the other strollers on this list, it includes a child tray, parent tray, and large storage basket.

The stroller also has a multi-position reclining seat, which will come in handy with your newborn, who requires the head support. There’s also an adjustable canopy and toe-tap brakes on the back wheels.

The infant car seat includes head and body supports. The car seat easily transfers from the car seat base to the stroller base for travel. Once your baby reaches the car seat's maximum height and weight recommendations, you can still keep on using the stroller through toddlerhood, but you’ll have to purchase a new car seat.

Some Pampers Parents noted they would prefer one large front wheel versus the small two-sided front wheel on the stroller for better maneuverability.

Highlights: At just 18 pounds, this is the lightest travel system stroller on our list.

Price * : about $349.99 on Amazon.com

Pros: You’ll love the versatility and portability.

Cons: The handle could be adjustable and it could use better quality wheels.

9. Evenflo Pivot Modular Travel System

Why pick this one? The Evenflo Pivot Travel System was designed so that both the stroller seat and infant car seat can face either forward or backward in the stroller frame, depending on your preference. Plus, the stroller seat can be adapted and positioned horizontally as a bassinet-like carriage for strolling with your newborn.

The stroller frame features four large cruiser tires for smoother handling. There is a three-panel canopy; however, the canopy does not have mesh panels or a baby window, which some of the other models on this list offer.

The infant car seat features a four-position recline for your baby’s comfort and a unique ergonomic handle so that it can be carried in the bend of your arm.

The stroller has no child tray or parent tray, which may be a deal-breaker for some.

Highlights: This travel system includes a blanket boot, which keeps your baby’s legs warm in cold weather.

Price * : about $279.99 on Amazon.com

Pros: You’ll like the design without the expensive price tag. There’s the option of changing the direction of the seat.

Cons: It’s difficult to close the stroller with one hand. The front wheels tend to get stuck on certain surfaces.

10. Graco Trax Jogger Travel System

Why pick this one? This jogging stroller from Graco features air-filled rubber tires with suspension for a very smooth ride on a variety of terrains. The single front wheel can lock in place for running, and unlock so that it can swivel for daily strolling.

The one-handed folding feature includes an automatic lock so that the stroller will remain closed and standing when stored. Keep in mind that some Pampers Parents noted that when folded the stroller is awkward to transport.

The stroller also features a safety tether that attaches to your arm as an extra layer of security to ensure the stroller can’t roll away, even when you are running. The baby seat features deluxe padding and multiple positions for your baby’s comfort and safety.

The infant car seat comes with newborn head support. It also has its own expandable canopy. The seat cushion is machine washable.

Use the infant car seat until your baby reaches the maximum weight and height limit. After that, you’ll have to purchase a new car seat. But your baby can continue to use the stroller into her toddler years.

Highlights: The stroller’s expandable canopy not only features a peek-a-boo window but also provides UV 50 sun protection.

Price * : about $201.07 on Amazon.com

Pros: You’ll love the handle adjustability and the superior suspension for jogging.

Cons: The front wheel can be problematic when it comes to steering and maneuvering, and the stroller could be easier to clean.

11. Evenflo Pivot Xpand Modular Travel System

Why pick this one? The manufacturer of the Evenflo Pivot Xpand Travel System claims you can configure the stroller 22 different ways, including accommodating 2 riders at the same time. This means you can use this stroller with your infant and your toddler simultaneously, for example.

This is how it works: The stroller frame features a unique slide and lock system, which allows for expansion in order to accommodate both the toddler seat and the infant car seat. You can configure each seat to face different directions. The toddler seat can also be configured to be used in infant mode.

This travel system stroller can come in handy if you have a newborn and a toddler and don’t want to commit to buying a double stroller .

Be aware that the infant car seat has a maximum weight and height limit. So, at some point your baby will outgrow it and you’ll have to upgrade to a new car seat. But you’ll be able to use the stroller portion of the travel system into toddlerhood.

The storage basket underneath can expand to over two feet long and is accessible from the front and back.

Highlights: The seat pad can be machine-washed in cold water and placed in the dryer on low. When folded, the stroller can stand on its own even with the toddler seat attached.

Price*: about $322.22 on Amazon.com

Pros: The combination of features, the multiple configurations, and the design without the expense.

Cons: There is no infant tray or parent tray. The wheels tend to make steering tricky and can get stuck sometimes.

Features to Consider When Buying a Travel System Stroller

When it comes to choosing a travel system stroller, here are some important things to consider:

JPMA safety seal. Make sure your stroller and infant car seat combo meets strict U.S. safety standards. It’s worth checking to see if the product has been recalled . Look for a seal on the packaging that shows that the manufacturer participates in the Juvenile Products Manufacturers Association’s (JPMA) certification program.

Secure harness. A five-point harness is standard for most strollers and infant car seats. Experts say it’s the safest option because it secures your baby over his shoulders, at the waist, and between the legs. Secured this way, he can’t slide out, fall out, or climb out. The straps should be easily adjustable and easy for you to use, but difficult (or even impossible) for your baby to unfasten himself.

Recline function. This will be important when you’re using the stroller or infant car seat with your newborn. Newborns don’t have the ability to sit up or hold their heads up, so you’ll want to make sure your newborn is in a comfortable reclined position to prevent his head from flopping forward.

Easy-to-open-and-close stroller. Opening or folding a stroller with one hand can be a blessing, especially when you’re holding your baby in your other arm. A stroller that remains upright when folded can also come in handy when storing.

Easy-to-install car seat. Some infant car seats may be easier to install than others. Most feature a LATCH (Lower Anchors and Tethers for Children) system in the car seat base, which can make it a lot easier to install. The infant car seat clicks into the base, and it’s easy to remove and attach to the stroller base. If you plan to transfer the car seat from car to car, it can be beneficial to have one that has an easy-to-install car seat base, or you could consider buying an additional car seat base for the other car. To make sure that the car seat is correctly installed, you might consult a certified Child Passenger Safety Technician .

Protective canopy. Being able to keep your baby shaded from the sun and covered in case of bad weather will be important. Canopies come in a range of sizes and styles. Some provide nearly full coverage of the front of the stroller. If that’s the style that interests you, make sure it has mesh panels, which can help keep your baby at a comfortable temperature. You can also consider a model that has a plastic window so that your baby can see out and you can see in. If this feature is not included in the stroller you like, you can often purchase it separately. Most infant car seats will also have a canopy, but these often don’t have the peek-a-boo window features or mesh panels of a stroller’s canopy.

Suitable stroller wheels. Larger wheels make maneuvering the stroller much easier. You’ll want a stroller that has lockable front swiveling wheels, as this makes it easier to go over a variety of terrains. Air-filled tires provide a smooth ride, but need to be pumped up occasionally. Foam-filled tires provide the same smooth ride but don’t need refilling. Many strollers include a suspension system with shock absorbers to make the ride even smoother. It’s best to avoid strollers with tiny plastic wheels as these can make the stroller bounce around a bit.

Roomy storage. Having a large storage basket underneath the stroller can come in handy for stashing your handbag, diaper bag , and any other necessities. Some stroller models may feature dividers or zippered pockets for storing valuables. The basket should be accessible even when the infant car seat is in place or fully reclined. The storage basket should be strong enough so that it doesn’t drag on the ground once filled with your items.

Good brakes. Most strollers have foot-activated brakes that are controlled by either a single foot bar at the rear of the stroller, or a pedal above each of the rear wheels. Some models come with a hand-operated lever near the handlebar.

Comfortable and adjustable handlebars. You may want to look for a stroller with padded handles that can be adjusted to suit your height. Some strollers have two separate handles instead of a single handlebar.

Easy-to-clean fabric and upholstery. Some stroller and infant car seat manufacturers have layered seat fabrics that can be removed as needed. For example, a breathable mesh seat for summer can be layered with a cushioned one for winter. Choose a travel system that is easy to clean. Some include seat covers that are removable and machine washable; others offer stain-resistant fabrics that are easy to wipe down.

Size and fit. Before selecting an infant car seat, it’s a good idea to measure your car’s back seat to ensure the car seat will fit. It’s also smart to check the size of your trunk to ensure the stroller will fit once it’s folded.

Safety Considerations When Using Your Travel System Stroller

Once you’ve chosen the best travel system for you and your baby, here are some safety tips to keep in mind as you use both the car seat and stroller:

Don’t leave your baby alone or unattended in the stroller or in the infant car seat.

Be sure to use your stroller’s brakes to lock the wheels before placing your baby in the stroller, and whenever you have stopped with the stroller.

Always check your automobile’s instruction manual and the infant car seat’s guidelines for information on the safe installation of the infant car seat. Do not use any additional straps that aren’t part of the travel system to install the car seat.

Remember that the safest place for your baby to ride in a car is the back seat, with the infant car seat facing the rear until she’s at least 2 years old or exceeds the manufacturer's maximum weight and height limits. After that you can upgrade to a new front-facing car seat .

Don’t hang heavy items like hand bags, tote bags, or diaper bags from the stroller handles. The weight can cause the stroller to tip backward. Instead use the storage areas under the stroller.

Watch out for your baby’s fingers when using the stroller so she doesn’t get them caught in the wheels or the hinges of the stroller’s folding parts. Also, make sure that your baby can’t reach the brake lever.

After placing your little one in the stroller or the infant car seat, be sure to always use the five-point harness so that she is properly secured whenever she’s riding in the stroller or in the car. The harness straps should be at or under your baby’s shoulders and the chest clip should be at armpit level. You know the harness is tight enough when you can’t pinch any strap fabric at your baby’s shoulders.

Don’t use the car seat or stroller as a substitute for your baby's crib, which is the safest place for your little one to sleep. You might be tempted to allow your baby to finish a nap in the car seat, but doing so can lead to the development of a flat spot on the back of your baby’s head, cause acid reflux or GERD , and affect her breathing.

If you decide to attach toys to the stroller, make sure they’re securely fastened so they won’t fall on your baby. Remove these toys as soon as your baby can sit or reach them.

If your stroller has a cup holder, make sure never to use it for hot drinks, which could accidentally spill on your baby.

In hot weather, don’t leave the stroller in the sun as it can cause the plastic and metal parts to get hot. Check that the stroller isn’t hot before putting your baby inside. The same goes for the infant car seat. If you plan to leave your car in a parking lot for long hours during hot weather, consider covering the car seat with a towel to prevent it from getting too hot. Always check the car seat isn’t hot before placing your baby in it.

Be sure to mail back the warranty card to the travel system stroller’s manufacturer so that you’ll be notified in case there’s a recall.

A travel system can be a wonderful way to move your baby from the car to stroller and back again with ease. And it has the added benefit of being useful once your little one is into her toddler years. We hope that Pampers Parents’ insights have helped make your buying decision a little bit easier.

If you’re still in the process of compiling a baby shower registry , why not add the travel system of your choice to the list?

What is Buy Now Pay Later (BNPL)? BNPL is an interest-bearing option that allows you to delay payments on your purchases for up to 12 months depending on how much you spend. The delayed payment period starts from the date of order (including pre-ordered items and those not ready for immediate dispatch). Subject to eligibility, you may choose from: BNPL for 6 months when you spend £ or more. BNPL for 9 months when you spend £ or more. BNPL for 12 months when you spend £ or more. The delayed payment period and qualifying minimum order value is subject to offer and your account status and may be different to the values shown here. If you are eligible for BNPL your offer details will be confirmed in checkout. How is interest calculated? Interest is calculated from date of order and compounded daily. The interest will be added to your account as a lump sum at the end of the delayed payment period. This means you will pay interest on interest. How to avoid paying interest? You can avoid all of the interest by paying the cash price before the end of the delayed payment period, this can be done in one full payment or multiple partial payments. Making partial payments without clearing the cash price in full will reduce the amount of interest charged at the end of the delayed payment period. Remember, if you choose not to pay the cash price before the end of the delayed payment period a lump sum of compound interest will be charged to your account. How do I make a BNPL payment? To make a full or partial payment simply log into your account. You can allocate your payment to the specific BNPL you wish to pay off. Alternatively, you can call us. What happens after the delayed payment period? If you have paid the cash price in full before the end of the delayed payment period, you will not pay any interest. If you have not paid the cash price in full or have only made a partial payment, a lump sum of interest will be charged to your account. Any outstanding balance plus the interest will now become payable. As the outstanding balance, plus the interest now form part of your payable balance they will attract interest at your account rate, meaning you will pay interest on interest. This will be included within your account minimum payment request every month and cannot be repaid using Take 3. What is excluded from BNPL? The costs for delivery, installation services and monthly insurance products cannot be placed on BNPL. Do I still have to pay my minimum payment? Yes, allocating payments to BNPL will not cover the minimum payment on your account. If you have a non-BNPL balance, you will still need to make at least your minimum payment as shown on your statement.

Customer Rating

Baby travel systems designed for families with hectic schedules.

Preparing to greet a new addition to your family? An essential item to facilitate your mobility with your little one is a travel system. Generally, a baby travel system integrates a car seat, a pushchair, and a carrycot, which can be easily attached and detached, allowing you to transition seamlessly from outdoor terrain to indoor settings or from a bus to a cafe. When selecting a travel system, keep an eye out for Isofix seats that can be directly inserted into pre-installed clips in contemporary vehicles and lightweight materials for effortless transportation. You can confidently make your choice from reputable brands such as egg2, Cosatto, and Bugaboo.

Maximizing the Benefits of Your 3-in-1 Travel System

Travel system strollers offer a plethora of intelligent functions to simplify your life. For instance, newborns prefer lying on their backs, which is why you can attach your carrycot to the frame and create a classic pram. As your child develops, position them to face you for enjoyable interaction during walks. Furthermore, as babies grow into toddlers, they love facing forward and observing their surroundings, making the pushchair element of a 3-in-1 travel system highly useful. Additionally, washable covers that can be easily removed ensure that your system is hygienic and prepared for the next use.

Vancouver Public Transport Mega Guide + Local Tips

Struggling to navigate Vancouver public transport? You’re not alone – even us locals are still adjusting to the intricacies of the Vancouver public transportation system.

I can empathize with the challenges travelers like you face while maneuvering through the city’s elaborate network of Skytrain (our subway/metro), bus, and ferry services.

Fortunately, you can put your worries aside, as I’ll be sharing my years of experience (including a few mishaps!) to guide you through the city stress-free!

Here’s my comprehensive Vancouver public transport mega guide.

• Vancouver transit fares + zone map
• Transit passes
• False Creek Ferries
• Bike sharing and rentals

The West Coast Express

Safety on transit, vancouver public transport.

People always ask me how easy it is to get around Vancouver without a car. I often hear people telling me that they’d heard that you absolutely need a car or taxi to get around town.

While having wheels definitely comes with its advantages, I’m here to show you that these people are wrong.

With a few useful travel hacks and a little patience, you’ll find that Vancouver public transit is clean , efficient, and affordable . You’ll have no problem accessing all of the city’s top attractions .

First, let’s cover the basics.

Vancouver Public Transportation Options

Translink is the regional transportation authority that oversees the Vancouver public transport system.

Translink operates a system that includes the following:

• The Skytrain : Greater Vancouver’s Metro system
• The Coast Mountain Bus Company :   A provider of an extensive network of bus routes
• The Seabus : A downtown to North Vancouver passenger ferry
• The West Coast Express : A commuter train that links downtown with Vancouver’s Eastern suburbs

Additionally, the city is one of the most bike-friendly cities in North America. You can use the regional bike share system known as Mobi or private bike rentals to access our vast network of bike lanes. Or better yet, take them for a spin on the legendary Seawall .

Lastly, two private companies, Aquabus and False Creek Ferries , provide a small passenger ferry service throughout False Creek.

Vancouver Transit Fares

The cost of your trip depends on four main factors:

• Distance travelled: (number of zones)
• Method of payment: (cash, compass card or day pass)
• Mode of transport: (transit option used)
• Time of purchase: (weekday, evening or holiday)

Each factor will be discussed in detail below, but in the meantime, here is a quick look at the fare list.

Cash Fares (cash/contactless payment)

Type              1-Zone     2-Zone     3-Zone

Adult              $3.15      $4.55       $6.20

Concession  $2.10       $3.10      $4.25

Compass Card (stored value)

Type               1-Zone     2-Zone     3-Zone

Adult              $2.55       $3.75       $4.80

Concession    $2.10      $3.10      $4.25

Monthly Passes

Adult           $104.90    $140.25   $189.45

Concession       –                 –            $59.95

Type                          All Zones

Adult                           $11.25

Concession                 $8.85

*Concession rates apply to seniors (65+), children (5-13) and youth (14-18) with valid ID.

Translink Zone Map

There are four transit zones in the Metro Vancouver area:

• One : Encompasses the entirety of the City of Vancouver, including Downtown and the city’s Southern peninsula.
• Two: Covers the neighbouring suburbs on the North Shore, Richmond, Burnaby, and New Westminster.
• Three: Constituted of the more distant suburbs to the East, including; Delta, Surrey, Langley, Coquitlam, and Port Moody
• Airport : Includes the three stations located on Sea Island, including YVR-Airport.

Vancouver Airport Transportation

In addition to any ticket purchased that departs from Sea Island, all travellers are required to pay the $5 YVR add fare surcharge.

This surcharge is not levied for trips to the airport from the City Centre.

For more information on travel from YVR, check out our Airport Transportation guide.

Mode of Transport

The Skytrain and Seabus require a 1, 2, or 3-zone ticket depending on the time of day and travel distance.

However, it is important to note that regardless of trip duration all bus trips are considered one-zone fares .

Translink Methods of Payment

All forms of Vancouver transit can accommodate here are four methods of payment:

• Single/Cash Fares: Cash or credit/debit/mobile wallet purchase of a single fare.
• Stored Value (Compass Card): Vancouver’s reloadable fare card.
• Day Pass: 24 hours of service across the transit system.
• Monthly Pass : Provides unlimited access for one month.

Each method of payment will be discussed in detail in the corresponding sections below.

Vancouver Transit Single/Cash Fares

With a single fare, you can transfer as often as you like between the Skytrain, buses, and Seabus within 90 minutes, with one notable exception listed below.

There are three methods of purchase for single fares:

• 1) Cash From a Compass Vending Machine (CVM): You can purchase a single fare (called a Compass Pass) from vending machines at any Skytrain or Seabus station or at most London Drugs locations.
• These fares can be purchased with cash, debit card, or credit card and allow for transfer across all modes of transport for up to 90 minutes. Single-fare passes expire at the end of the day of purchase, even if not used.
• 2) Cash Aboard a Bus: Cash payments aboard buses require an exact coin fare. This fare enables the user to have unlimited use of the Metro Vancouver bus system for up to 90 minutes with the acceptance of a transfer.
• Unfortunately, this does not extend to the Skytrain system.  A Compass Card or Compass Pass is required   for free transfer to Skytrain, Seabus, or West Coast Express services.
• 3) Tap to Pay: You can tap your contactless credit card (Visa or Mastercard), debit card or mobile wallet on any card reader at the front of the bus or Skytrain fare gates to begin your journey.
• On the Skytrain, be sure to tap your card or device when transferring/exiting the station (not required on buses). Otherwise, you may incur additional charges.

Vancouver Transit Passes

Compass Card

The Compass Card is Vancouver’s easy reloadable fare card that works on Translink’s entire Skytrain, Bus, West Coast Express and Seabus network.

As displayed in the fare table above, the Compass Card offers users travel at a  discounted rate  relative to regular cash fares.

Consequently, we strongly recommend a Compass Card purchase if you expect to use the transit system extensively.

Types of Compass Card

Three types of Compass cards are available for purchase in addition to the single-fare Compass Pass discussed above.

• 1) Adult Compass Card : The most popular option, this card can be loaded with stored value or pass products (daily or monthly passes). They are available online, at Compass Vending Machines (CVMs), or at select retail locations (see below.)
• 2) Concession Compass Card: The concession Compass Card offers discounted rates of travel for seniors aged 65 and over, children between 5-13 and youth 14-18 with valid photo ID (children under five ride free).
• They are available at the Compass Service Centre at Stadium-Chinatown Station, the West Coast Express Office, and select retail locations.
• 3) Compass Card Wearables: In addition to the traditional card format, the Compass Card is also available in recently introduced wristband and mini(keychain) versions. Both options can be purchased in adult and concessionary formats.
• Wearables are only available at the Compass Customer Service Centre at Stadium-Chinatown Station or the West Coast Express Office at Waterfront Station. They function exactly like the traditional card format and can be obtained for the same $6 deposit.

How do you purchase a Compass Card?

There are four different ways to purchase your card.

• 1) Compass Vending Machines (CVM): Located in all Skytrain, Seabus and West Coast Express stations and the Horseshoe Bay and Tsawwassen ferry terminals. Concession Compass Cards are not available at CVMs.
• 2) Local Retailers: Compass Cards are available at select retailers such as London Drugs, Save On Foods, 7-11, Shoppers Drug Mart and Safeway. This is the preferred option for the purchase of concession Compass Cards.
• Looking for an option close to you? Check out Translink’s find a retailer page .
• 3) Online: Since online purchase requires delivery, it is ill-suited for most tourists. However, if you have a suitable address to which you can send your pre-loaded Compass Card, they are available for purchase on the Translink website.
• For more details, click the link here .
• 4) The Compass Customer Service Centre: Located at Stadium-Chinatown Station. There is a refundable $6 deposit required to purchase a Compass Card. At the end of your trip, this amount can be returned to you, along with any remaining balance.

How do you use a Compass Card?

The skytrain, seabus & west coast express.

Simply tap your card on the card readers located at the entrance to the station. This will automatically initiate a three-zone fare.

Once your journey is over, be  sure to tap out upon exiting the station. And remember, this also applies to key transfer points.

Tapping out ensures that the proper amount will be deducted from your stored value. Otherwise, you’ll be dinged for a three-zone fare.

Vancouver Buses

When travelling by bus, tap on the card readers located on board at the front of the bus or on the rear doors upon B-line or Express buses.

You will only be charged for a one-zone journey, as the entire Coast Mountain bus network is considered one zone.

Consequently, you are not required to tap out at the end of your journey.

Vancouver Day passes

Purchase of a Vancouver transit day pass grants unlimited access to the Skytrain, bus, and Seabus networks on the day of purchase.

The passes cost $11.25 for adults or $8.85 for seniors and youths .

Unlike many cities offering passes with validity for 24 hours after validation, Vancouver transit day passes expire at the end of the service day they are purchased, even if unused.

For this reason, we only recommend purchasing a day pass Vancouver if you plan on getting an early start and need to travel extensively throughout multiple zones.

There are two ways to buy day passes:

• 1) Purchase a Day Pass Ticket: You can purchase a day pass from a Compass Vending Machine (CVM) located within any Skytrain, Seabus West Coast Express Station or any select retailer offering Compass products.
• 2) Load a Day Pass onto a Compass Card: You can add a day pass to your Compass Card online or at any CVM located within any Skytrain, Seabus or West Coast Express station.

*Note that the day pass will be used before any stored value already on your card, so only buy one when you intend to use it.

Now that you are well versed on the system’s fares, let’s get familiar with the various travel options on the Vancouver public transport system.

Still confused? Hit me up in the comments below .

The Skytrain

The Skytrain is the fully automated metro component of the Vancouver public transport system.

The system’s name is derived from the fact that the majority of its tracks are elevated well above the streets below.

This provides users with panoramic views of Vancouver’s skyline and the North Shore Mountains.

Fast, efficient, and cost-effective, Skytrain is fully equipped with all of the modern amenities regarding security and handicap accessibility.

This is simply the best way to get around Vancouver. Consequently, I highly recommend using the Skytrain as your primary method of using the Vancouver public transport system.

Skytrain Route Map

The Skytrain has three fully integrated lines, as displayed in the route map below:

• Canada Line (blue)
• Expo Line (navy)
• Millenium Line (yellow)

The Canada Line

Opened for the 2010 Olympics, the Canada Line is the newest line in Vancouver’s metro system.

As the principal method of airport transportation , it will likely be your introduction to the Vancouver public transportation system.

The Canada Line has two main branches:

• Richmond-Brighouse: This branch operates North-South between Waterfront Station in Downtown Vancouver and Richmond-Brighouse Station in the suburb of Richmond, BC.
• This means it provides service to most Vancouver airport hotels , the River Rock Casino and the wealth of dining and shopping options throughout Richmond.
• YVR-Airport: The line branches off from Bridgeport Station in Richmond and heads to YVR-Airport Station on Sea Island, which will form most visitors’ introduction to the city of Vancouver. In addition to YVR, this branch services the popular McArthurGlen Outlet Centre via Templeton Station.

If you’d like a more detailed look at the Canada Line, including schedules, hop on over to the Canada Line web page.

The Expo Line

The original Skytrain route was constructed for Expo ’86; this line contains two branches that provide service from Downtown through East Vancouver to the city’s Eastern suburbs.

From a tourist perspective, both branches will service the major sites and attractions located in Chinatown , Gastown , and Vancouver’s Little Italy, located on Commercial Drive .

It also provides service to Pacific Ce n tral Station , which offers the Vancouver to Seattle Train , the Rocky Mountaineer , the Victoria Bus and coach service to Whistler .

Most tourists will not venture far enough East to reach the divergence in lines. So unless you are heading to Surrey or New Westminster, by all means, jump on either train.

The Expo Line has two main branches:

• King George: The first branch operates from Waterfront Station in Downtown Vancouver and heads South-East through East Vancouver, Burnaby and New Westminster before terminating at King George Station in the suburb of Surrey, BC.
• Lougheed: The second route follows the same route from Waterfront Station but after Columbia Station in New Westminster branches off and heads North-East towards Production Way in Burnaby.

For detailed schedules and maps, visit the Expo Line  website.

The Millennium Line

The aptly named Millennium Line was opened shortly after the new millennium in 2002. As the line does not enter Downtown Vancouver, it will likely be of little use to most tourists.

It heads East from VCC-Clark Station in East Vancouver through Burnaby before heading North-East across the suburbs of Port Moody and Coquitlam. The newly opened Evergreen Extension will then take you to the terminus Lafarge Lake-Douglas Station.

*Construction of an extension from VCC-Clark down Broadway to Arbutus (and eventually UBC) are currently underway. The line is scheduled to open in 2026.

Check out Translink’s Millennium Line  site for more details.

Skytrain Hours

The three Skytrain lines have similar schedules with a few slight variations:

First Train (Weekdays)

• Canada Line: 4:48 am (Waterfront-YVR) / 5:07 am (YVR-Waterfront)
• Expo Line: 5:32 am (King George-Waterfront) / 5:08 am (King George-Waterfront)
• Millennium Line: 5:30 am (Eastbound) / 5:04 am (Westbound)

Last Train (Weekdays)

• Canada Line: 1:05 am (Waterfront-YVR) /12:56 am (YVR-Waterfront)
• Expo Line: 1:16 am(Waterfront-King George) / 12:38 am (King George-Waterfront)
• Millennium Line: 1:22 am (Eastbound) / 1:00 am (Westbound)

The above tables are offered only as a rough guide. Please consult Translink for exact schedules and interactive maps for all three lines. And always use Google or Apple Maps for specific recommendations from your place of lodging.

Each line offers peak hours service frequency of around 3-4 minutes . While this may extend to 6 or 10 minutes later in the day, you can rest assured that’ll you’ll never be waiting long.

• Canada Line hours stay the same
• The Expo and Millennium Lines begin service later, at 6:48 am and 6:30 am, respectively, with the last train running at regular hours
• All lines offer reduced service frequency

Sundays/Holidays

• Canada Line hours don’t change
• The Expo Line offers service from 7:48 am -12:16 am
• The Millennium Line runs from 7:30 am-12:29 am
• Frequency is reduced on all lines

Skytrain User Tips

• Use stored value: We recommend purchasing a Compass Card for ease of use and, most importantly, to receive discounted rates.
• Avoid public transit day passes: Day passes don’t provide the best value unless you get an early start and plan on travelling extensively throughout zones 2 and 3.
• Bring your things: The Skytrain has plenty of room for luggage, bicycles, and skis/snowboards. Plus, there are elevators in every station.
• Grab a window seat: If travelling outside the city centre on the Expo or Millennium Lines or in Richmond on the Canada Line, you will be afforded spectacular views of Vancouver’s skyline, the North Shore Mountains and the Fraser River.

The Vancouver bus network is extensive and offers efficient, safe, and reliable service throughout Vancouver and its many suburbs.

As valuable a transportation tool as the Skytrain is, it simply does not offer the same degree of coverage as many metro lines in comparably sized European and Asian cities.

As a result, the use of Vancouver’s bus network will become a necessity for travellers who wish to explore some of Vancouver’s more distant attractions in areas like Kitsilano and UBC.

Vancouver Bus Routes

Vancouver’s bus network operates on a grid system, with most routes generally terminating in Downtown Vancouver or at the University of British Columbia.

Trolley buses generally run North-South along the main thoroughfares, with diesel buses running East-West and usually terminating at the UBC bus loop.

Three specific bus routes will be of most use to visitors to Vancouver: The 99 B-Line, the Rapid Bus and the NightBus.

Vancouver Express Buses

The 99 B-line and the RapidBus provide a network of express routes that offer fast, reliable and high-frequency service along a number of main arteries in the Metro Vancouver area. There are currently five different express routes on offer:

• The #99 B-Line : Runs East to West from Commercial Drive and Broadway to its terminus station at the University of British Columbia. The #99 will likely be the most important express route for tourists, offering service to popular Vancouver neighbourhoods like Commercial Drive (Little Italy), Fairview, Kitsilano , and UBC.
• The route connects to the Expo Line at Commercial Drive-Broadway Station and the Canada Line at Broadway-City Hall station.
• For schedules, visit Translink’s  B-line next bus page.
• The RapidBus: The new RapidBus program offers fewer stops and up to 20% faster service than local buses. There are currently four routes on offer: R1 King George Blvd (Surrey), R3 Lougheed Hwy (PoCo, Pit Meadows, Maple Ridge), R4 (41st Ave from UBC-Joyce), and R5 Hastings (DT to SFU.)
• For more information and a complete list of RapidBus Schedules, visit the  Translink web page.
• Vancouver Night Bus: Provides Night Bus service from a hub at the intersection of Granville and West Georgia after the Skytrain has closed. After 2 am, the buses leave every 30 minutes from one safe, secure, well-lit downtown location 7 days a week. You can tell it’s a NightBus by the half-moon symbol beside the number on the bus stop sign and the N in front of the route number (N9, N19 etc.).
• For all the info, check Translink’s Night Bus  page.

Other Key Vancouver BusRoutes

• #19 Stanley Park: Runs along Pender Street to the heart of Stanley Park
• #22 Knight: Runs east through downtown from Burrard Station towards Chinatown
• #4 UBC: From Granville Street downtown through Kitsilano to UBC
• #236 Grouse : Lonsdale Quay in North Vancouver to Grouse Mountain , including the Capilano Suspension Bridge .
• #257 Horseshoe Bay Express: Express service to the Horseshoe Bay Ferry Terminal
• #620 Tsawwassen: Bridgeport Station in Richmond to Tsawwassen Ferry Terminal

For further information on routes and schedules, visit the  Translink  bus page.

The Seabus is a passenger-only commuter ferry between Waterfront Station in Downtown Vancouver and Lonsdale Quay in the suburb of North Vancouver .

The service will be useful to those who would like to visit the Capilano Suspension Bridge and Grouse Mountain or enjoy the bars, restaurants and Vancouver craft breweries in North Vancouver’s beautiful Lonsdale neighbourhood.

Seabus Fares

The Seabus is subject to the same fare structure as other forms of transit on the Vancouver public transport system and is thus considered a two-zone fare.

As such, a one-way ticket costs $4.55 or $3.75 with a Compass Card.

Sailing Times

The 12-minute long sailings depart at 15-minute intervals during peak hours (6:45 pm-9:16 pm on weekdays) and every 30 minutes before or after.

Departure intervals remain the same during weekends. However, peak hours are reduced by 2 hours (9:02 pm-9:02 pm).

First/Last Sailing

From Waterfront                       First            Last

Weekdays/Saturday                  6:16am        1:22am

Sunday/Holidays                       8:16 am 11:16 pm

From Lonsdale                           First             Last

Weekdays/Saturday                 6:02am         1:00am

Sunday/Holidays                      8:02 am         11:02 pm

Connections

The Seabus connects with the Canada and Expo Lines of the Skytrain at Waterfront Station.

At Lonsdale Quay in North Vancouver, there is a public market, hotel, and bus loop connecting the attractions on the North Shore, such as:

• Grouse Mountain: Bus #236 (Bay 8)
• Capilano Suspension Bridge: Bus #236 (Bay 8)
• West Vancouver: Bus #239 (Bay 6)
• Lonsdale: Bus #230 (Bay 3)

Vancouver’s Beautiful North Shore is an attraction in its own right, so don’t let the distance get in the way.

Whether you’re skiing the local mountains , hiking up the famous Grouse Grind, or hitting one of Lonsdale’s numerous bars or restaurants. It’s a big part of any Vancouver itinerary .

The False Creek Ferries

The Seabus isn’t the only commuter ferry service offering travel across Vancouver waters.

Two small private companies offer ferry service amongst a variety of stops littered throughout False Creek . This allows visitors to travel from downtown to the attractions on Vancouver’s Southern peninsula.

This includes Granville Island , Science World and some of the city’s best beaches. You can also hit many of the best museums in Vancouver ( Museum of Vancouver , Planetarium & Maritime Museum ) located in the neighbourhood of Kitsilano .

The tiny ferries offer a brief reprieve from the urban environment and present travellers with stunning views of the Vancouver skyline, the North Shore Mountains and False Creek’s glittering waters.

The Ferries run from roughly 7:00 am to 9:00 pm, depending on season and station.

Be aware that Compass Cards and other Translink fare products are not accepted aboard the ferries. This is due to the fact the ferries are not part of the Vancouver public transport system.

*Cash is the preferred method of payment on board.

Need more info? Visit the Aquabus and False Creek Ferries websites.

Vancouver Bike Share

A bike share system offers public bicycles for short-term use to users for a small fee or subscription.

Vancouver has recently implemented its own system, allowing users to make use of the city’s extensive network of bike lanes in addition to the world-renowned Seawall as a transportation tool.

A bike-sharing network administered by the City of Vancouver, Mobi allows users to borrow a bike from any of over 100 stations and simply return it to any station in the network once they’re finished.

Each station also comes equipped with wifi, a valuable tool for visitors. Just be aware that Compass Cards and day passes do not apply, as Mobi is not considered part of the Vancouver public transport system.

To gain access to Mobi, users must sign up online or pick up the Mobi app in the App Store or Google Play .

Bike Share Payment Options

• 24-hour pass: $19.00
• 30-day pass: $39.00
• 365-day pass: $139.00

The 24-hour pass has traditionally been the most popular with tourists.

However, recent price increases have made the 30-day pass a more viable option for those who intend to use the system extensively. Just remember that the 30-day pass is auto-renew . So be sure to cancel before you leave town.

Mobi Things to Know

Each pass entitles users to 30 minutes of use of their bicycle.

The bike must then be returned to any Mobi station. If you download the Mobi app, you’ll see the location of all stations and the number of bikes present.

Otherwise, a $7.50 overage fee per 30-minute period (i.e. $15.00 for an hour, $22.50 for 1.5 hours).

However, the duration of your pass will entitle you to as many 30-minute rides as you would like within the duration of your pass.

Vancouver Bike Rentals

Mobi is aimed predominantly at local commuters, not tourists like you.

So, if you’re looking to enjoy a bike ride around Stanley Park or the Seawall, we strongly recommend using one of the city’s numerous bike rental companies.

Then you can take your time and enjoy the area’s beautiful views, Vancouver’s best beaches and attractions. Prices start at $13.00 using our Tiqets link below:

The West Coast Express is a commuter rail service that connects Downtown’s Waterfront Station with the distant North-Eastern suburb of Mission .

A one-way trip takes 75 minutes and costs between $11.25 and $13.40, depending on the distance travelled. Seniors and youth receive a slight discount.

The train offers a number of stops along the way

• Moody Centre*
• Coquitlam Central*
• Port Coquitlam
• Pitt Meadows
• Maple Meadows

*Denotes stop that intersects with the Millennium Line  of the Skytrain.

The service runs five times daily from Monday to Friday and only operates during the peak morning and evening rush hour.

As a result, it is not of much value to most visitors to the region and primarily targets suburban commuters.

West Coast Express Info

After tapping into the WCE, you’ll have 120 minutes before your trip expires. You can transfer across the entire Vancouver public transport system off of a single fare. And remember, your travel time begins when you tap your card or ticket to enter a transit area.

If you transfer onto WCE via other modes of transit, you’ll need to pay an additional fare.

Travelling to the burbs and needing it? Check out Translink’s West Coast Express  page for fare information and schedules.

Great information about transport system in Vancouver does this come in a leaflet form .

Hi Catherine,

Unfortunately we haven’t created a leaflet or infographic or anything of the sort, though it is a great idea!

Do I understand correctly? If I get on the bus and pay cash I get a paper ticket valid for 90 minutes on other buses. But if I pay by tapping my debit card at the first bus I need to tap it in the next ones and I’m charged every time?

You’ll get a transfer with cash yes. The tapping can only charge once per 90 minutes so you should only be charged once even if you make a transfer.

That said, if you’re here a while just grab a compass card! Much easier, and don’t have to worry about cards being rejected. Some foreign cards don’t work for example.

Pricing and Fare Zones

The price of your trip depends on when, where, and how you are travelling.

On this page

Save time and skip the lines! Tap your bank card or mobile wallet at the faregate to pay for your ride.

SeaBus requires a 1 or 2-Zone fare, depending on the time and day*

*All journeys across the system starting after 6:30 p.m. weekdays and all travel on weekends (Saturday, Sunday, and holidays) are a 1-Zone fare.

Compass Card

Find out how to pay for transit on our Compass Card page.

Estimate your Fare

Buses are a 1-Zone fare, all day, every day. Cash fares on buses are not transferable to SkyTrain, West Coast Express, or SeaBus.

Plus an additional $5 YVR Airport AddFare if starting from YVR Airport, Sea Island Centre, or Templeton Stations.

Paying Your Fare

Paying on the bus and handydart.

Using a Compass Card, Compass Ticket, contactless payment cards, or mobile wallet.

When you board, tap your card, ticket, or mobile wallet on the card reader located near the bus doors. You don't need to tap out when exiting.

Place the coins or bills into the fare box (no change can be given). You'll be handed a bus transfer from the Operator that is your proof of payment and can be used to transfer between buses (but not on SkyTrain, SeaBus, or West Coast Express).

For more information about paying on HandyDART, visit the HandyDART page.

Paying on SkyTrain, SeaBus, and West Coast Express

When you travel on SkyTrain, SeaBus, or West Coast Express, tap your card, ticket, or mobile wallet to the card reader at the fare gates (or validator for West Coast Express) as you enter and exit a station to validate your fare. Tapping reserves the fare for a 3-Zone trip, or a full-distance trip in the case of West Coast Express.

When you tap out, the system calculates the fare zones you've travelled and charges you the correct fare. This applies to all products, including Monthly Passes.

Paper bus transfers are only valid for transfer between buses.

Proof of Payment

Transit vehicles and all areas within fare gates are Fare Paid Zones.

All customers must pay the fare required by the TransLink Transit Tariff and carry proof of payment whenever they’re aboard a transit vehicle, within fare gates, or within any station area that is designated as a Fare Paid Zone.

Valid proof of payment:

Compass Cards and Compass Tickets with a valid fare that has been successfully tapped in are accepted as proof of payment on all modes.

Validated FareSavers (no longer sold) and bus transfers are accepted as proof of payment on buses.

Transit Police and Transit Security regularly conduct fare checks. Ensure you’ve tapped your Compass Card or Compass Ticket to validate your fare, and have them, along with any required valid identification, available for inspection, if asked. On buses, keep your bus transfer for inspection.

Anyone who fails to produce proof of payment with valid identification on request will be asked to leave the vehicle and risks facing a fare infraction ticket with a fine of $173.

Visit our Fare Infraction  page for more information on paying or disputing a fare evasion ticket. 

Paying as a Group

For large group trips (e.g., school field trips), you can bulk purchase Compass Tickets ahead of time. Visit our Group Travel  page for all the details.

Contactless Payment

Taking transit and don’t have a Compass Card? No need to print a ticket. Save time, skip lines, and go straight to the gate!

Our card readers accept contactless Interac Debit, American Express, Mastercard, and Visa credit cards along with Apple Pay, Google Pay, and Samsung Pay. Go paper-free and help the environment. All you need to do is tap your card or device on the fare gate or bus card reader to pay.

Like a Compass Card, you can only use one payment device per person. You still have 90 minutes to make your transfer across bus, SeaBus and SkyTrain services (120 minutes on West Coast Express services). Be sure to tap your card, not your wallet, and to use the same card when transferring between buses, SkyTrain, SeaBus, and West Coast Express to avoid getting multiple charges. Final charges are determined by when you tap out at the end of your trip. Single adult cash fare applies. For discounted fare, use a Compass Card.

Watch Out for Card Clash

If you tap your wallet or phone case, multiple credit cards may be charged. Remove your credit or debit card from your wallet or phone case before you tap.

Keep in mind that Tap to Pay is unrelated to your Compass Card. Currently, there is no Compass App.

Avoiding Charge for Uncompleted Trips

If you tap in and decide not to complete a trip, you can easily reverse your charges. If you tapped on a bus, please ask the driver to reverse the tap for you. If travelling on rail, you can undo your initial tap in by tapping out of the same station within 21 minutes on SkyTrain and SeaBus, and 60 minutes for West Coast Express.

Transit Police Security Checks

Transit Police and Transit Security use FIA (Fare Inspection App) to check fares. If you've paid using Tap to Pay, police or security personnel may use an handheld device to detect if your credit card, debit card, or mobile device is an accepted form of payment and has been tapped into the system.

Kids 12 and Under Ride Free

As of Sept. 1, 2021, children 12 and under can ride TransLink services free of charge as part of a new provincial program. This change makes it easier and more affordable for families in and around Metro Vancouver.

Learn more about Transit Tips for Kids .

Note to Parents and Guardians

While travel for children 12 and under is free, parents and guardians are responsible for educating and making decisions about the safety and care of their children whenever travelling on transit. This includes when children are travelling unaccompanied and determining if their children can or should take transit unaccompanied.

Children 12 and under can ride buses free of charge without requiring a transit pass, identification or an accompanying fare paying customer.

SkyTrain, SeaBus, and West Coast Express

Children 12 and under can ride on SkyTrain, SeaBus, and West Coast Express free of charge only if accompanied by a fare paying customer. A fare paying customer can accompany up to a maximum of four children through the fare gates.

Children 12 and under can continue to access the gated system by themselves with the purchase of a fare to tap through fare gates.

Children 12 and under who are registered HandyDART customers or children who are accompanying a registered HandyDART customer can travel for free on HandyDART without requiring a fare product or identification. Learn more on the HandyDART page .

Frequently Asked Questions

Do children need to be accompanied on the bus.

Children 12 and under do not need to be accompanied by a fare paying customer to travel for free on buses because there are no fare gates.

Parents and guardians are responsible for educating and making decisions about the safety and care of their children and determining if their children may take transit unaccompanied. We strongly recommend that parents and guardians are informed about transit use and the safety and care of their children whenever travelling on transit, including when their children travel unaccompanied, and determining whether their children can or should take transit unaccompanied.

Do children need to be accompanied on the gated system and how will children access the gated system for free?

Children must be accompanied by a fare paying customer when travelling on and through the gated system, including SkyTrain, SeaBus, and West Coast Express. One fare paying customer can accompany up to four children who are riding for free. The fare paying customer must escort the children through the fare gates (see below).

How should fare paying customers escort children through a fare gate?

We recommend fare paying customers tap their fare product once and let the children they are escorting through the open fare gate before passing through the fare gate themselves. If there are any issues getting through fare gates, customers are encouraged to seek a SkyTrain attendant or to pick up the closest Courtesy Phone to ask for help.

Can children access the gated system without being accompanied by a fare paying customer?

Unaccompanied children are not able to access the gated system without fare payment. Parents and guardians must ensure that their children are aware of TransLink’s fare policy and how to safely use the transit system, including the requirement for individuals under 13 to pay the appropriate fare when using SkyTrain, SeaBus, or West Coast Express unaccompanied by a fare paying customer.

Parents and guardians are responsible for educating and making decisions about the safety and care of their children whenever travelling on transit, including if their children can or should take transit unaccompanied.

Why do children need to be accompanied on SkyTrain, SeaBus, and West Coast Express, but not on bus?

Children need to be accompanied by a fare paying passenger on SkyTrain, SeaBus, and West Coast Express services because these services are only accessible by tapping fare payment to gain access through the fare gates. With buses, children can board without needing to pass through a fare gate. We will be working with the Province on simplifying this experience for children on TransLink’s gated system in the future.

How can school groups, community groups, and larger families move through fare gates?

School groups, community groups, and larger families should seek a SkyTrain attendant or pick up the closest Courtesy Phone to ask for help. A SkyTrain attendant can assist larger groups with children 12 and under access the gated system using existing procedures. If you know your plans ahead of arriving, call 604.520.5518 and let us know when and where a SkyTrain attendant can meet your group.

If you have a Compass Card, Compass Ticket, contactless credit card or Interac Debit and used Tap to Pay, you can transfer across bus, SeaBus, SkyTrain, and HandyDART on a single fare for up to 90 minutes, or up to 120 minutes when including travel on the West Coast Express. Your travel time begins when you first tap your card or ticket to enter a fare paid zone.

Fares paid with cash on buses cannot be transferred to other modes.

A DayPass provides unlimited transit use on all buses, SkyTrain and SeaBus for one day from the start of the first transit service to the end of the service day.

You can use a DayPass for travel through all zones, and save money over buying single fares when you take multiple trips in the same day.

Stored Value

Using Stored Value on your Compass Card is just like adding cash to your card, so you can pay-as-you-go. Stored Value offers flexibility since you don’t need to specify a zone or zones in advance.

Adult Stored Value fare is a discounted rate over a cash fare.

Vancouver Transit Fares and Compass Card

Visitor's guide to transit fares in Vancouver including the Compass Card

Day Pass - Good Option for Visitors

A Day Pass, valid all day in all fare zones on all three transit modes, is the often the best value for tourists. It's only $11.25 for Adults and only $8.85 for Concession (65+)! That gives you total freedom to travel the system all day long with as many stops as you wish.

The Compass Card and Compass Tickets

Ticket Vending Machines located in SkyTrain and SeaBus stations sell both single use Compass Tickets and reloadable Compass Cards.

Where can I buy a Compass Card?

Besides the Compass Vending Machines in SkyTrain and SeaBus Stations, you may purchase Compass Cards online from the official Compass Card Website and have them mailed before your trip — a great option for visitors.

Compass Cards are also available for sale at fare dealers located throughout the city which include the following stores: Safeway, London Drugs, Shoppers Drug Mart, Mac's Convenience, 7-Eleven and many other independent convenience stores. Cards purchased from fare dealers will not have any stored value, but you may add a pass or stored value to them at a Compass Ticket Vending Machine located at the stations. Vending machines are also being set up at numerous London Drugs Stores throughout the city where you may purchase a card preloaded with a pass or stored value. There's a $6.00 refundable deposit for the card when you purchase it.

You may load your Compass Card with a Day Pass or with stored value. If you load your card with a Day Pass, the Day Pass will activate the first time you tap-in, otherwise your stored value will be reduced according to the fare for your trip. Using stored value on a Compass Card provides about a 20% discount on regular adult fares compared to the cash fare for single trip Compass Tickets , however, there is no additional discount for concession fares.

Tap to Pay Contactless Payment

You also have the option to pay for your fare using a contactless, Interac Debit, Visa, MasterCard, Apple Pay, Google Pay or Samsung Pay on your smartphone. This makes paying your fare very convenient but there are a couple of caveats.

This method of payment is limited to adult fares only. It can only be used to purchase a fare for a single trip, so no day passes and it does not offer the discount available when you purchase a Compass Card. You have 90 minutes to transfer to another bus, SeaBus or SkyTrain to complete your trip before you would be charged another fare.

It may be a good option if you're just making one or two trips during the day. Beyond that, we recommend buying a Day Pass as the best option for most visitors.

If you do use the tap-to-pay method, it is important to remove your credit card from your wallet or phone case before tapping it on the reader, otherwise you may end up charging your trip to the wrong card or even multiple cards.

A Tap-to-Pay fare is identical to paying a cash adult fare. On buses, you will not have to tap-out. Your fare is valid through all three zones. When riding the SkyTrain, you will have to tap your card again when exiting. When Zone fares are in effect, you will be charged for the number of zones travelled. Be sure to tap-out with the same card you tapped in with or you will be charged the 3-Zone fare even if you travelled a shorter distance.

Paying on Buses

Important - When purchasing your fare on a bus with cash, you must have the exact fare. You cannot purchase a day pass or multizone fare when boarding a bus. The bus operator will provide you with a bus transfer, which serves as your proof of payment and may be used to transfer to other buses for 90 minutes from starting your trip. It is not valid on the SkyTrain, SeaBus, or West Coast Express.

Compass Card, Compass Ticket, contactless payment cards, or mobile wallet:

Simply tap your card, ticket, or mobile wallet on the card reader located near the bus doors when you board. There's no need to tap out when exiting.

If you use a Compass Card or Ticket to board a bus, you may transfer between all transit modes as needed to complete your trip and tapping out is not required on buses.

Note: Concession fares are not available when using a credit card or mobile wallet for contactless payment.

As part of the change over to the Compass Card and Tickets, buses are exempt from zone fares . If you purchase a ticket, also known as a transfer, on a bus (requires exact coin fare) you will not be able to use it on the SkyTrain or SeaBus. When that happens, you will have to pay a full fare again based on the number of zones, day and time. On the plus side, a bus only ticket permits unlimited transfers onto other buses in any direction for the full 90 minute validity.

The fare table below shows the various cash fares for a single trip based on the number of zones you will be travelling in. Single fares are valid for 90 minutes from boarding on all three transit modes: Buses , SeaBus and SkyTrain . If you tap-out from the SkyTrain or SeaBus more than 90 minutes after tapping in, your card is debited for a second trip.

Zones fares apply to the SkyTrain and SeaBus on Weekdays until 6:30pm. Buses are now exempt from Zone fares all day, every day. The SkyTrain and SeaBus are exempt for trips starting after 6:30pm on weekday evenings and all day on Weekends and Holidays. These exemptions allow travel through any number of zones on a 1 Zone fare. Concession fares are for adults 65+.

Children age 12 and under may ride the SkyTrain, Bus or SeaBus for free.

*Note: a surcharge of $5.00 is added to single ticket fares only for trips originating on Sea Island which include Vancouver Airport, Templeton Station and Sea Island Centre and travelling to Bridgeport Station and beyond. To avoid the surcharge purchase a Compass Card and load it with a day pass or stored value at the start of your trip.
