Yes, that is correct. You can use the $15 Weekend Pass for two consecutive days on Saturday and Sunday. You can use it for unlimited travel on our GO Transit system - both GO buses and GO Trains. ^DS
Thank you so much for all of your Videos. Im 19 year old living in Germany and Im about to make my first vacation alone going to Toronto. Maybe not fully alone. I mean i am going to stay at my grandmas house but still when I want to travel through toronto, I have to do it on my own. And realtalk your Videos are really helping me out and give me a good overview of Torontos Public Transport. Keep your good work up!
Thank You So Much Man I just left the city because I couldn't find a good room or bachelor, I'm competing with tens of thousands of students returning for school and I lost the battle so far. Staying at family while away on vacation for a month or so, but after that I got to go. I won't stay in crime areas, I've been robbed a few times, I won't stay with bedbugs and always search address and street to see any reports online, and I need a place with decent level headed adults, who aren't flying high on drugs or meds or drinking 24/7 and needs to be close walking distance to a store for eggs and meat. It's like looking for a needle in a haystack from brampton to scarborough, well beaches areas and the bluffs I guess is lowest in crime at least I saw a place in niagara but thought I can't afford the commute to view it, and now I can Feel kinda stupid, for not seeing this on the site too, haha, so thank you again oh wise one Much Love and God Bless
Love your videos! Coming from vancouver in 2 weeks and will be going to Niagara Falls for a Sunday day trip taking this Go Train. As there are only a few trains a day, would there be possibility that the train is full that we couldn’t get on? Will definitely need to be back the same night. Thanks so much!
Is super cheap but the things is that train only goes by only 3 times a day so there isn't a lot of opportunity to hop on and off. Also if you go by train with a week day pass, they will ride you for free to the niagara but you have to buy a we go ride (bus) to return by 3.00 CAD. Also as the pass is only on weeks the place is so packed. 😅 hope my 3 cents apport is helpful.
Yeah I just made the mistake a few hours ago and noticed I could buy a weekend day pass i would've saved $30 as I'm going to Budweiser stage for a concert tonight. Plus my E Ticket says that it's valid for 4 hours after activating it. Well I dont think i'll be done for that 4 hours. I think I'll just take my chances.
Hi, I'm going to Toronto in February, I'm going from Toronto to Niagara for three days, Saturday, Sunday and Monday. However, I have seen that they sell weekend and midweek packages (including round trip). But that doesn't help me, because I'm leaving Niagara on Monday. In addition to that I see that you can buy two-day packages to visit the falls, and it includes the WeGo!, but you could buy it individually, if so where could you get it, just the Wego bus tickets. Also, how can I purchase individual Go Transit tickets?
Thank you!! Travelled to Niagara through Go train after seeing your videos. Weekend pass is $15 and can be used on weekend and Holidays(Used monday 5th sep). Direct go train from Union station to Niagara in weekends. Weekdays you can take train from Union to Burlington and thn by Go Bus from Burlington to Niagara
Hi! thanks for the information! Does anyone knows if I can board on a different station than the one I selected when I purchased the ticket? ie: I bought Union -> Niagara , but I actually will start my trip at Burlington, can I do that? Thank youuuuu
Great video! Question - is WEGO part of the GO network and included in the pass? My understanding is WEGO is the best option to travel to horseshoe falls? can you suggest
WEGO is not part of GO, but I think sometimes there are promotions where WEGO pass is included in the GO ticket, but you'll need to check if that is the case. Yes, I think WEGO is perfect to go to horseshoe falls and visit the major attractions in Niagara Falls! Also ask your hotel, when I stayed at the Mariott Fallsview 2 years or so ago, they gave us 2 complimentary WEGO tickets. Cheers!
Hello, what's the difference between GO niagara train service weekend pass vs this go train Weekend pass. One cost $20 and the other one is $10.. im abit confuse. Pls help. Thanks
So the weekend pass would be valid for me to go from Kitchener to Toronto and Return to Kitchener? Spending 40$ everytime I want to see a concert is getting ridiculous 😅
That's also a mystery to me. I would GUESS it's to roughly manage the capacity. Imagine in an extreme example that 1,000 people book the route Toronto-Kitchener on the same day. By requiring people to enter the dep and arr stations, they can perhaps cap the tickets sold. Again, just speculation!
As far as I know, you can only travel between the two stations you enter. Unfortunately, the pass doesn't let you travel unlimited through the entire network.
I bought a day pass for $10, but it said "One-Way/Return Trip E-tickets: Once a ticket is activated, one-way and return trip e-tickets are valid for 4 hours. Passes: Passes are valid for the entire day until the end of service hours on the day of activation or as otherwise stated (weekend pass). " Does this mean, that I need to pay once more on my return trip? As only one way will take 2 hours Thanks
Hello, once purchased a $15 Weekend Pass or a $10 Weekend Day Pass, how many times is it valid? If I buy it today, what is my due date to use this pass?
just want to know how to do this "Remember to activate five minutes prior to boarding a GO train or bus." Did I miss it, or you did not mention it, thanks
There are two types of passes, one is for the whole weekend (both days), and one is just for one day on the weekend. You'll have to make the corresponding selection on the website. Hope this helps!
That's such a good question! I don't know and never tried it... I guess you'd need to open 2 browsers then. To be sure, I'd ask someone from GO transit though!
Follow up to this: Actually the phone shouldn't matter, as it goes by link. you get the link to the ticket in your email, so it shouldn't really matter what device you use to open the ticket, at least that's my opinion.
I believe the GO weekend pass can only be purchased online, and also needs to be activated on your cellphone. For regular tickets you can buy them from the machine or counter.
Summer Weekend Service to Canada’s Wonderland Starting June 25 This summer until Labour Day weekend, starting Saturday, June 25, most weekend Route 47 trips will serve new stops at Canada’s Wonderland and at Major Mackenzie Dr. at Hwy 400 Park & Ride. GO buses will serve Canada’s Wonderland from Platform 1. Trips will run hourly in both directions on weekends. As a result of the new stops, some trips will have earlier departure times of up to 20 minutes.
This is just for GO Trains. I read somewhere that there is a discount for TTC when transferring directly from GO to TTC, but I'm not sure how much and if that's still valid.
Yes. When you purchase the weekend pass, you get a confirmation email that is sent to you with a confirmation number. When you want to use the pass, just follow these steps: 1. On your iPhone or Android device, open the confirmation email in your email app (must have an internet connection). 2. Scroll down until you see "Activate your E-Tickets" 3. Click on the link that corresponds with your trip to access and then click "Activate" to activate your e-ticket. A data or Wi-Fi connection is required. 4. After a 5-minute window, your ticket will be valid for travel. * Please keep in mind that it takes 5 minutes to activate a ticket in our system, and once it has been activated, single-ride tickets are valid for 4 hours. Passes are valid during service hours on the day of activation or as otherwise stated. Please note that at the time of fare inspection you must be connected to data or a Wi-Fi network, and once an e-ticket is activated it cannot be de-activated. The link will look like this (This is just an example): Activate Your E-tickets 5 Minutes Prior to Boarding: Click to activate (confirmation number) Union Station GO to Niagara Falls GO - $10 One-Day Hope this helps! And I've used these passes before!
@@raymondlee3327 HI!! Do you know if I can board on a different station than the one I selected when I purchased the ticket? ie: I bought Union -> Niagara , but I actually will start my trip at Burlington, can I do that? Thank youuuuu
@@raymondlee3327 does the go passes are valid for both the day or night or only it is valid for the day?? If the train schedule is 1:00am at the night during the weekend?does the pass will work or i have to pay extra money..

Das freut mich sehr zu hören! Ich bin in Deutschland geboren und aufgewachsen! Ich glaube Du wirst Toronto geniessen! Viel Spass!
the weekend pass is great! i took a small trip to hamilton last summer using the $10 weekend day pass, super budget friendly travel option
It is, right?! Really worth it, I believe too.
Great videos, thank you so much for your travel tips! Much appreciated 🏴

I've lived in Ontario all my life and you really opened my eyes to taking VIA and the Go Train to travel. Thanks for that
That's interesting! I've been living in Toronto for 4 years now and just took my first via rail ride this year :) Glad to share my experience!
@@LivinginCanada yeah hopefully you’ll do the Toronto to London Go Train to see your thoughts
I'd love to do that, hopefully soon!

Why do we have to select From and To station at the time of buying weekend pass if the pass is valid for the entire network?
Ikr, it doesn't make sense to me. I guess it helps the transit system to estimate the amount of traffic.

Hello, what's the difference between GO niagara train service weekend pass vs this go train Weekend pass. One cost $20 and the other one is $10.. im abit confuse. Pls help. Thanks
Thank you very much. It's very useful.
You're welcome!
So the weekend pass would be valid for me to go from Kitchener to Toronto and Return to Kitchener? Spending 40$ everytime I want to see a concert is getting ridiculous 😅
That's right, as long as it's within the ticket validity, so weekend day for one day and weekend pass for two days.
I did not know the page of go transit . Thank you😊
Thank you so much for all this information
Can I use the one-day weekend pass for different origin and destination other than those mentioned at the time of purchase?
have you used it yet? 😅 i’m going to wonderland soon (go bus) and i’m just wondering what i’m supposed to show the driver
You need to buy it using your mobile phone, so I'd think that's where your ticket will be. I haven't had the time to use it yet myself, good luck!
@@LivinginCanada thank you!
im also going to wonderland for haunt and im taking the bus
I bought mine my bf and his sister and her bf we're going from brantford to Canada's Wonderland
I see it says weekends days , but I’m traveling durning the week with no weekend days . Could I still use it
Why do I need to enter departure and arrival stations by the purchase of the weekend pass if I can go anywhere, as I understood?
That's also a mystery to me. I would GUESS it's to roughly manage the capacity. Imagine in an extreme example that 1,000 people book the route Toronto-Kitchener on the same day. By requiring people to enter the dep and arr stations, they can perhaps cap the tickets sold. Again, just speculation!

The weekend day pass is valid for the whole one day, so you don't need to buy another ticket for return. Hope that clarifies!
Hello, once purchased a $15 Weekend Pass or a $10 Weekend Day Pass, how many times is it valid? If I buy it today, what is my due date to use this pass?
It's only valid once, for one weekend or one weekday. I believe the ticket states the validity/latest use date.
just want to know how to do this "Remember to activate five minutes prior to boarding a GO train or bus." Did I miss it, or you did not mention it, thanks
I did not talk about the activation in the video, perhaps I’ll make another one.
Why is that going to Niagara fall ticket cannot be bought on the station???
This is so helpful !! :) Thanks a lot!
Great, thanks!
Great deal thank you for the tips👍.
Im new in Toronto. How can i go to Ottawa by go train or bus ...like this one day pass
You can take the viarail, or megabus might be a cheaper option!
I cannot find the Rocketman App in Play Store with the same icon shown. What am I doing wrong?
I am planning Niagara trip coming Friday-Saturday. Is any Week day pass available for Friday?
The weekend pass is only available for the weekend, I'm not aware of any week day discount, so far.
Is it unlimited like u can use the whole day?
Very informative, thank you!
You're welcome!
This Rocketman offer tip is amazing
Glad it was useful!
Can i use the weekend pass from ajax going to toronto only?
Is there any discount for monthly use presto card for daily go to work??
There is a monthly pass you can purchase, I think it's about $150-160/month.
Can you please share the link with us I couldn’t find any monthly presto card
Can i use weekend pass each day, e.g both weekend days.
There are two types of passes, one is for the whole weekend (both days), and one is just for one day on the weekend. You'll have to make the corresponding selection on the website. Hope this helps!
Hi, after purchasing the ticket how can we download e ticket or we have to just show the email received .
Can l buy 2 weekend tickets from the same phone

From where to purchase wego ticket
You can get them at the GO station at Niagara falls, usually.
Why is that I can’t buy tickets from the station ???
This is just for the weekend pass. Regular tickets you can buy from the vending machine at stations.
THANK YOU👍🏿
I have 3kids traveling with me and they don't have their own cellphone. How can buy a go ticket for them?
