The Navigo Liberté+ package is less well known than the monthly and annual passes. However, it is an interesting option if you travel in Paris by metro and RER. Here is what you need to know about this Île-de-France Mobilités transport ticket.
Alongside the classic Navigo Monthly and Annual passes, the Liberté+ pass is a package less known to Ile-de-France residents. However, the Navigo Liberté+ pass will finally allow travel throughout Île-de-France, we learned on May 2, 2024. For the moment, the possibility is only open to a handful of testers, using this pass on their Android smartphone.
Are you traveling to Paris and hesitating about opting for a Navigo Liberté+ pass? Here’s everything you need to know before you decide.
What are the different Navigo passes?
There are different types of Navigo passes. The choice of support for your transport tickets depends on your frequency of travel to Paris and Île-de-France.
If you travel regularly, it is recommended to opt for:
- The Annual Navigo pass,
- The Imagine R pass, intended for pupils or students.
If you only travel occasionally, it is better to turn to:
- The Navigo Easy pass,
- The Navigo Découverte pass,
- The cardboard ticket.
These supports allow you to load different transport tickets.
What is a Navigo Liberté+ contract?
A Navigo Liberté+ contract is one of the transport tickets offered by Île-de-France Mobilités. It can only be loaded on a Navigo pass.
The main advantage of the Navigo Liberté+ is to pay exclusively for the journeys you make. There is no need to think about recharging it, because payment is made at the end of the month, with a deduction corresponding to the sum of the journeys actually made. It is possible to consult your consumption online at any time, in “My Navigo”.
This package is interesting if you mainly travel with t+ tickets, or if your journeys are not numerous enough to opt for a Navigo Month (€86.40 per month) or Week (€30.75 per week) pass.
This package is not suitable if you mainly travel by RER outside Paris.
Where to get your Navigo Liberté+ card?
If you already have a Navigo pass, there is no need to apply for a new card. The Navigo Liberté+ can be loaded on it.
Otherwise, you have several options to obtain a Navigo pass:
- Online, from your personal space, in “Order a Navigo card”. It will be sent to your home,
- At the RATP counters,
- By correspondence by sending an application form collected at the counter.
To obtain a Navigo pass, you must live or work in Île-de-France. The first Navigo pass is free (the replacement then costs €15).
Once you have the pass, you can subscribe to the Navigo Liberté+ contract online or at a physical point of sale. Remember to have a RIB to carry out this process.
How much does a trip with the Navigo Liberté+ cost?
The journey costs €1.73 with a Navigo Liberté+ (instead of €2.15 for a classic t+ ticket), for the following routes:
- Metro and RER in Paris,
- Bus and tram,
- Montmartre funicular.
With a Navigo Liberté+, the price of journeys is capped each day. Beyond €8.65 per dayother journeys are free.
Which areas are covered by the Navigo Liberté+ pass?
The Navigo Liberté+ package is suitable if you are traveling in zone 1, that is to say in Paris, particularly by metro and RER.
Note that bus and tram journeys are covered by this package in other areas of Île-de-France.
Some connections are free in Paris (between metro and metro, between RER and RER, between metro and RER, between RER/metro and tram/bus) and outside Paris (between bus and bus, between tram and tram, between tram and bus ).
