My daughter just used her credit card which was convenient for a short visit, but that is only for adult fares. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just to backtrack the OP advised their senior card had expired? Ours does not need renewing is this a Queensland thing?? No not my Queensland Senior Card I thought it might have been my Commonwealth Low Income Card which had expired, but it wasn't The Govt is getting the surcharge now.

Not travelling as much as I usually do, but weather is not great. If all else fails, I have an adult card, as we used to have to buy an adult card to get from the airport to central station to buy our Seniors OPAL cards. I've always lost money because Seniors OPAL cards used to expire. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
