What is standard fare?

A standard fare refers to the price that is charged for a particular mode of transportation, such as airfare, bus fare, train fare, or taxi fare. The standard fare may vary depending on the distance traveled, the time of travel, the class of travel, and other factors. It is usually set by the transportation company or authority regulating the mode of transportation. Passengers may be able to purchase standard fares online, at ticket counters, or through automated ticketing machines. Standard fares may also offer discounts for seniors, children, and other groups. In some cases, standard fares may be subject to additional fees, such as baggage fees or fuel surcharges.
