Is Lirr Free For Military? [Solved]
Wow, that’s awesome! Active-duty military personnel can now get discounted fares on both the LIRR and Metro-North. On the LIRR, they’ll always pay off-peak fare, and on Metro-North they’ll get 25% off the one-way station fare. Plus, their ticket will be valid for 60 days from purchase - so they can travel peak or off-peak during that time. Sweet deal!
