在國外旅遊搭乘大眾運輸工具,學會各類票種的英文,不用擔心買錯票!

 

一般車票都會以距離和旅遊時間來區分,以下是常見的幾種票種:

1  單程票(Single Ticket )如果只到某地,之後不會再搭車,買單程票就是最划算的選擇。

2  來回票(Return Ticket)如果回程確定了,建議在買票時就買來回票,通常比兩張單程票便宜,亦可省下再次買票的麻煩。

3  區間票如果只在某個區域活動,可買此票種,如搭乘倫敦地鐵遊覽倫敦,就可買Zone 1與Zone 2兩區的週票,可在使用期限內於該區內任何站隨意進出。巴黎的地鐵也有此票種。

4  一日票(One-Day Pass ; Daily Pass ; One-Day Travel Card)如果想在某地到處觀光,一天內會不斷出入地鐵站,此票種方便又划算。

5  週票及月票(Weekly Pass & Monthly Ticket)若待在某地時間較長,可根據停留時間購買週票或月票,有的會要求附一張照片以貼在車票上。

 

認識了各類票種,接著來學習如何應用在對話中吧!
