Is there an age discount on the subway?

Question

my family is coming into the city for a visit and we plan to get around by subway. i was wondering if anyone knows if there's an age discount for children, like do kids under a certain age not have to pay the $2 fare? thanks for your help!

Answer 1

not per se.

according to the MTA website:

"Up to three children 44 inches tall and under ride for free on subways and local buses when accompanied by a fare paying adult."
