If every station other than Penn Station you had to swipe in/out of the card could automatically debit for a fare to Zone 1 but if you get off sooner it would refund the difference between Your Zone to Zone 1 vs. Your Zone to wherever you got off. It would also be helpful because if I have a Zone 4 to Zone 1 that is about to expire and I am traveling Zone 3 to Zone 1 I can use same ticket. MTA makes money from fewer personnel needed and during peak times all tickets would be scanned unlike times where I have seen conductors be unable to make it through the train due to crowding |
