MTA AWAY, a platform that offers discounts to explore the New York region – Telemundo New York (47)

The Metropolitan Transportation Authority (MTA) announced the launch of the MTA AWAY program as a way to help New Yorkers get out of the car, choose public transportation, and experience all the events and destinations the New York region has to offer.

Passengers can enjoy special savings when visiting the site MTAaway.com.

The site offers a range of routes to explore, including Hudson Valley Happenings, Discover Long Island, and TDF / TKTS, offering itineraries, food guides, seasonal activities, event suggestions, and more.

MTAaway.com features destination details and the easiest way to get there, whether it’s by taking the Long Island Railroad, Metro-North Railroad, subway, or buses.

“Everything we do is geared toward getting people out of their cars and onto public transportation. It’s good for the economy and even better for your wallet, ”said Sarah Meyer, MTA’s director of customer service.

“Today’s launch brings together all the events and destinations New York has to offer in one place. Planning a day trip has never been easier. Just go to MTAaway.com and you can find places to go and how to get there, “he added.

Other current offers offered through the MTA AWAY include discounts on admission to the Museum of Modern Art, the Storm King Art Center and the New York Botanical Garden. There are also deals on Long Island wine tours, the Maritime Aquarium in Norwalk, the Bronx Zoo, and the Hudson River Museum.

Rail customers can save even more on weekend trips in the fall. Under the Fall Weekend program, LIRR and Metro-North honor all monthly tickets for weekend travel to and from all LIRR and Metro-North stations, regardless of the stations printed on the ticket.

Plus, monthly ticket holders traveling on those weekend days will be able to bring up to four additional travelers for just $ 1 per person, one way.
