Recently I've made an access to info the ARTM regarding their removal of the virtual 747 ticket in the @transit.app (sorry for the ping) Here's some context: In the Montreal agglomeration, to get to the Dorval airport the 747 is currently the recommended method (2027 with the REM will dethrone it)

The issue is the 747 only takes a-zone day passes and In exact change(11$ in coins). The solution offer three different methods to purchase a virtual ticket. Parking meters in the borough of ville Marie The artm proprietary app called Chrono. And finally there was the transit app.

Biggest issue with the parking option is that only select parking meter in the borough of ville Marie have the option to buy them and you cannot buy them at the airport. So this option is only for those wishing to go to the airport.

The biggest issue with Chrono Is that it is a proprietary app only used in the GMA (CMM). The biggest problem with the transit app is that they don't offer it anymore even though it is a much more popular app than Chrono

Anyways, here are the numbers from Chrono

Here's the numbers from the parking meters

And finally transit... The access to info requested does not have a month by month data... They asked me to ask the STM for that... More to come. - Nombre de billets virtuel 747 achetés par l'entremise de l'application Transit par mois depuis sa mise en place. Le total est de 30 858 billets.
