Transfer/Fare Credit Options With Other Transit Systems
Golden Gate Ferry Customers
Through March 31, 2010 (see NOTE below), FREE Muni transfer coupons are available for Golden Gate Ferry customers for round trip travel on all Muni vehicles (except cable cars) to/from the San Francisco Ferry Building area. Larkspur Ferry customers can get Muni transfer coupons from machines at the Larkspur Ferry Terminal before they enter the paid waiting area. Sausalito Ferry customers can get Muni transfer coupons from machines at the San Francisco Ferry Building. To receive free Muni passage, ferry customers MUST PRESENT AND SURRENDER the transfer coupon to a Muni Operator or Station Agent to receive a valid Muni transfer. Golden Gate Transit bus transfers are NOT accepted on Muni. TransLink customers should carry transfer coupon as backup fare payment.
NOTE: On April 1, 2010, a new fare coordination agreement between Golden Gate Transit/Ferry and the San Francisco Municipal Transportation Authority (Muni) will take effect. Adult TransLink customers transferring from Golden Gate Transit or Ferry to Muni will receive a 50-cent (25-cent youth/senior/disabled) credit on their Muni TransLink fare (excludes Muni Period Passes). In addition, TransLink customers transferring from Muni to Golden Gate Transit or Ferry will receive a fare credit (50-cents for adults, and 25-cents for youth, senior, and disabled) on their Golden Gate TransLink fare (excludes Muni Fast Pass TransLink customers). This new fare agreement replaces the free Muni round trip ticket program previously offered to Golden Gate Ferry customers only.
