This one?

I am trying to find a better rate than that.

It's valid on 22 Bay Area transit agencies, though apparently NOT including MST (Monterey Salinas Transit); those areas aren't part of the 9-county Bay Area.

I'm nowhere near senior citizen-age, but it's a fair point. (You bring up a good suggestion, though...can one get the Clipper card at SFO - e.g. on a layover - without going to the BART station?)

Will check this out, too!
