To calculate your fare, look at all the zones you travel in during your journey. Subtract the lowest zone from the highest zone and add 1. This will determine the number of zones you will be charged for. In Mackay, the maximum fare is capped at 12 zones.

Fare example

If you are travelling between West Mackay (zone 1) and Beaconsfield (zone 3), you would pay a 3-zone fare, (3-1)+1 = 3 zones.
