Do you lot have discounts for pensioners?
If you live in London, pensioners[1] get a 100% discount on the tube.
Ours don't get a 100% discount in Sydney, but do qualify
for dirt cheap fares, $2.50 for the entire day and you can
go anywhere you like in the day for that using a variety
of means of travel, everything from buses to trains to ferrys.
[1] Actually you don't have to be retired, just old (or disabled)
enough. It used to be 60yrs+ but they are currently in a period of
tapering that up to 66yrs+. I'd have to wait until I'm 63.5yrs old for
example.
With Sydney, you qualify at 55 and that age isnt being changed.
