Paris Metro price rise

[Panceltic]

Hello,

is there any information yet as to how much will the prices go up in Paris in 2014? I am interested in Ticket t+, Carnet, and Mobilis tickets.

Will there be another rise in July?

Thanks for your answers

Surely like the locals there is no price rise?

Kidding, just saw so many people jumping the barriers around Paris!

Haha, this is an option; but having had three ticket checks in a week last time I was there, I'm not trying local tactics ...

The rise is to be an average of 3%, but details haven't yet been released. VAT on transport (included in the fares of course) is going up from 7% to 10%, so almost all of the extra income will be passed to the French government.

Thank you for the link. We can expect the ticket t+ to rise to €1.75 then? It has been frozen this year so a rise is almost certain to happen now.
