Unlimited Weekend Rides Offered For PATCO Travelers: See Details

SOUTH JERSEY — PATCO rolled out a new Weekend Monthly Pass just in time for the holidays, offering unlimited rides for $18 on their line through South Jersey and Philadelphia.

The $18 pass allows unlimited rides between Fridays at 6 p.m. and Sundays at 11:55 p.m., said PATCO (Port Authority Transit Corporation). It is an add-on feature to new and existing FREEDOM cards, and operates separately from the stored value for weekday travel.

"Enjoy a night out on the town, explore museum attractions, and experience annual holiday attractions every weekend with the ease of unlimited travel for one low price," PATCO said.

PATCO is running the Weekend Monthly Pass for three months, beginning November 4. Pass holders can also enjoy free parking at NJ station parking lots after 10 a.m., PATCO said.

The Weekend Monthly Pass is available at any station ticket vending machine. Each traveler must have their own FREEDOM Card.

PATCO runs from Lindenwold, NJ to Camden, and then across the river to several stops in Philadelphia, ending at 15/16th and Locust Street. Trains run both underground and above ground.
