Blade has reduced its charter fares to $95 to help commuters during the LIRR strike. This is a significant change from standard luxury pricing, though it remains much higher than a train ticket.

Calling the OMNY customer service line, and for the first time in my life I heard the message "This call may be recorded for training purposes" followed with, "If you would not like to be recorded, press X."
What a concept!

Why do I still #WearAMask on the bus? Because we're in the middle of #flu and #RSV waves, and #COVIDIsNotOver.
I'm vaccinated against #influenza and #COVID19, but not #RSVirus. Even if I can handle them, I don't really want to get sick, and I definitely don't want to pass them on to someone more vulnerable!
This #NYCTransit Q53 bus was packed, and the ventilation is just not that good. At one point someone sitting across from me let out a big wet cough.

NY subways (pt. 7 in this series of posts)
Coming from Vancouver with our functional but very limited couple of Skytrain lines, seeing an actually-complete subway network for the first time was an eye-opening experience.
It was also a lot of fun to take longer-exposure photos in the somewhat dim stations. There's a lot more where these came from, so follow along if that sounds interesting! -

“I wouldn't go in and take photographs immediately in a subway car because there’s too many people, too much going on. I'd have to let things settle. I would prefer to be the one in that car first. And the other people coming in were then my guests, and therefore they were fair game.” #transit #nyctransit
