- Transit
Sound Transit: Link is a flat fare, "One-way adult fares are $3.00", regardless of distance. Washington State Ferries collects the walk-on passenger fare westbound only -- WSDOT’s Bainbridge Island to Seattle fare page shows "No Charge" for adult, senior and youth passengers, while Seattle to Bainbridge is $11.35 one-way. The entry describes the inbound leg a fan rides to the game, which is free; the stored $9 matched neither direction. Walking entries carry no transit fare by definition
