    I am 67 yrs old and have my Opus card . Do i still have to pay $10.00?

    Yes, because the 747 doesn't accept the normal bus fare. However, you can still get a three-day/week/month pass on your opus and that will work on the 747.

    No, it does not go that far. The bus only serves the Downtown core. To get to it from NDG, you can take any bus that goes to a Metro Station.

    If you're going by Dorval, you can get off the train at the Dorval Station and take a shuttle from the station. If you're going into downtown, find your way to Rene Levesque Blvd and go to the other side of the Blvd.

    Can I use a credit card to pay for this bus?
    Community Answer
    Yes. At the airport while on the way to the 747 bus you will see signs. And at the 747 sign you will see a machine that accepts credit cards and gives you the option to buy a one day pass that you can use on the 747 bus to take you to the Metro Station. The bus will take you to 2 different metro stops (depending which is closer to your final destination). From there you can take metro and/or buses to your final destination. Just scan the card at the metro or bus, and hang onto the card until you finish getting to your final destination.
