How to go to the Pass Window

To ride the monorail to a station that sells passes, purchase a pass ticket to the nearest station where passes can be purchased from the ticketing machine. This pass ticket will get you through the turnstiles on the way into and out of the station. When exiting at your destination, the pass ticket will be ejected from the turnstile, therefore collect it and present it at the pass window. Your fare will be refunded at the pass window.
