The OMNY system, which replaces the 30-year-old MetroCard, allows transit users to pay for their trips using a tap of their phone or credit card.

NICE
It’s been a while since I’ve been there, but when did they do a way with the unlimited passes? Like weekend/7 day passes? I seem to remember being able to pay like $12 and ride however many times you needed, which was good for tourists obviously.
Isn’t that the $34 7-day unlimited MetroCard? (In 2003 the price for the same card increased from $17 to $21.)
Must be the 7 day passes I’m remembering but for some reason I remembered them having a weekend pass. I must have just been getting unlimited day passes for the weekends or what not I was there.
There was a 1-day unlimited MetroCard (“Fun Pass”) that increased to $7 from $4 in 2003 and was discontinued in 2010. https://www.dnainfo.com/new-york/20101007/midtown/mta-votes-yes-on-fare-hikes/
