| 222 | +<ul> |
| 223 | +<li> |
| 224 | +<p>Metro and bus tickets are not interchangeable; they serve different transit systems.</p> |
| 225 | +</li> |
| 226 | +<li> |
| 227 | +<p>Bus tickets are generally more affordable than metro tickets.</p> |
| 228 | +</li> |
| 229 | +<li> |
| 230 | +<p>In Paris, taxi fares are regulated and determined by the prefecture, meaning all taxi companies must follow the <ahref="https://www.parisaeroport.fr/en/passengers/transport-parking/taxi/cdg">same pricing structure</a>. Airport trips to specific areas of Paris have fixed fares, like €56 to the Right Bank and €65 to the Left Bank from Charles de Gaulle Airport.</p> |
| 231 | +</li> |
| 232 | +</ul> |
| 233 | +<h4id="2-fare-options">2. Fare Options</h4> |
| 234 | +<ul> |
| 235 | +<li> |
| 236 | +<p>Children aged 4 to 10 qualify for a reduced fare, which is nearly half the adult price.</p> |
| 237 | +</li> |
| 238 | +<li> |
| 239 | +<p>A standard €2.50 ticket is valid for metro travel within Paris, including visits to museums.</p> |
| 240 | +</li> |
| 241 | +<li> |
| 242 | +<p>For trips to/from Charles de Gaulle (CDG) Airport, a one-way ticket costs €13 per adult. This ticket remains valid for 2 hours, allowing travel within Paris without exiting the station (no additional €2.50 ticket required within this timeframe).</p> |
| 243 | +</li> |
| 244 | +</ul> |
| 245 | +<h4id="3-recommended-payment-methods">3. Recommended Payment Methods</h4> |
| 246 | +<ul> |
| 247 | +<li> |
| 248 | +<p>Paper tickets are being phased out. Instead, consider:</p> |
| 249 | +<ul> |
| 250 | +<li> |
| 251 | +<p>Purchasing a reusable Navigo Easy card at any RATP station or airport.</p> |
| 252 | +<ul> |
| 253 | +<li> |
| 254 | +<p>The card can be used to purchase tickets at vending machines.</p> |
| 255 | +</li> |
| 256 | +<li> |
| 257 | +<p>Limitation: If a valid ticket is already stored on the card (e.g., an active €2.50 ticket), the system will not allow you to add another ticket (e.g., the €13 airport ticket) until the first expires. In such cases, you must buy a second Navigo Easy card.</p> |
| 258 | +</li> |
| 259 | +</ul> |
| 260 | +</li> |
| 261 | +<li> |
| 262 | +<p>Using the <ahref="https://www.iledefrance-mobilites.fr/application">Île-de-France Mobilités app</a> (available for iOS and Android) for mobile tickets.</p> |
| 263 | +</li> |
| 264 | +</ul> |
| 265 | +</li> |
| 266 | +<li> |
| 267 | +<p>Avoid vending machines when possible, as they may:</p> |
| 268 | +<ul> |
| 269 | +<li> |
| 270 | +<p>Malfunction.</p> |
| 271 | +</li> |
| 272 | +<li> |
| 273 | +<p>Reject foreign credit cards.</p> |
| 274 | +</li> |
| 275 | +<li> |
| 276 | +<p>Have long queues.</p> |
| 277 | +</li> |
| 278 | +<li> |
| 279 | +<p>Lack staff assistance.</p> |
| 280 | +</li> |

| 284 | +<h4id="4-how-to-validate-tickets">4. How to Validate Tickets</h4> |
| 285 | +<ul> |
| 286 | +<li> |
| 287 | +<p>Metro/RER:</p> |
| 288 | +<ul> |
| 289 | +<li> |
| 290 | +<p>Upon entering a station (marked with an “M” or “Metropolitan” sign), tap your card or phone at the validator to open the gate.</p> |
| 291 | +<p><ahref="https://i.imgur.com/dennIVb.jpeg"><imgsrc="https://i.imgur.com/dennIVb.jpeg" alt=""></a></p> |
| 292 | +</li> |
| 293 | +<li> |
| 294 | +<p>Exits are marked with “Sortie” (French for “Exit”).</p> |

| 296 | +</li> |
| 297 | +</ul> |
| 298 | +</li> |
| 299 | +<li> |
| 300 | +<p>Bus:</p> |
| 301 | +<ul> |
| 302 | +<li> |
| 303 | +<p>Validate your ticket only when boarding.</p> |
| 304 | +</li> |
| 305 | +<li> |
| 306 | +<p>Important: If your Navigo card holds multiple tickets, tapping it again within the validity period will invalidate a second ticket unnecessarily. Only validate once per trip.</p> |
| 307 | +</li> |
| 308 | +</ul> |
| 309 | +</li> |
| 310 | +<li> |
| 311 | +<p>No validation is required when exiting the station.</p> |
| 312 | +</li> |
| 313 | +<li> |
| 314 | +<p>Warning: Failure to validate may result in a fine during ticket inspections.</p> |
| 315 | +</li> |

| 317 | +<h4id="5-additional-tips">5. Additional Tips</h4> |
| 318 | +<ul> |

| 323 | +<p>The €2.50 ticket can also be used for trips to Versailles Palace.</p> |

| 329 | +<li> |
| 330 | +<p>The system does not support storing multiple active tickets simultaneously. Plan ahead to avoid purchasing extra cards.</p> |
| 331 | +</li> |
| 332 | +<li> |
| 333 | +<p>For airport transfers, ensure your existing ticket has expired before loading the €13 fare—otherwise, you’ll need a separate card.</p> |
