URGENT UPDATE: Metrolink has just announced a special $10 SoCal Day Pass for unlimited travel during the holiday season. This limited-time offer allows riders to traverse Southern California’s extensive rail network on Christmas Day and New Year’s Day, making holiday travel more accessible and affordable.
The SoCal Day Pass grants unlimited rides across Metrolink’s impressive 545-mile rail system, covering six counties. This includes the Arrow service, which connects San Bernardino and Redlands. Travelers can purchase the pass on the day of travel through the Metrolink mobile app or at any station ticket machine.
Train services will operate on a weekend schedule, although the Riverside Line will not be running on either holiday. Riders should note that, unlike previous years, there will be no special early morning services.
Metrolink encourages passengers to stay informed with real-time updates by signing up for Metrolink Alerts, which provide timely service notifications via email or text. Onsite station signage and digital displays will guide travelers to the correct boarding platforms, and passengers should listen for overhead announcements regarding upcoming station stops.
In addition, Metrolink is offering free transfers to local transit agencies, such as Los Angeles Metro, facilitating seamless first- and last-mile connections. This initiative aims to ease congestion and enhance the overall travel experience during the busy holiday period.
This holiday season, Metrolink’s $10 Day Pass could be a game-changer for families and travelers looking to explore Southern California without the hassle of traffic or parking. With the potential for increased ridership, this move reflects Metrolink’s commitment to providing accessible public transportation options for all.
As the holidays approach, travelers are encouraged to take advantage of this special offer. For more information, visit the Metrolink website or your local station. Keep an eye out for updates as the holiday travel season unfolds!
