Paris Pratique: Profitez du Dézonage! Summer Navigo Deals

Updated: 24 June 2014

The all-inclusive Navigo, the Paris transportation pass, can be purchased for weekly or monthly travel in or between the five zones of Ile de France, the greater Paris area. Central Paris is Zones 1-2 and is sufficient for most tourists or Paris residents. Usually, if you have a Zones 1-2 pass and want to go to Versailles (Zone 4), or Charles de Gaulle Airport and Disneyland (Zone 5), you need to purchase a separate ticket. Since September 2012, the monthly pass has been dézoné, meaning that you can travel in any zone anywhere in the Ile de France region regardless of your forfait, or plan, on weekends and holidays.

From July 14 – August 15, 2014, the monthly passes are dézoné every day. This is an excellent summer deal. For 67.10€, you now have access to all of Central Paris, plus Versailles, the airports, the castle and forest of Fontainebleau, the Great War museum in Meaux.

Note that the dézonage does not apply to the weekly Navigo pass (20.40€ for Zones 1-2). If this is your first Navigo pass, you’ll also need to purchase a “Passe Navigo Decouverte”. If you do not have a credit card with a microchip (SmartCard), you’ll have to pay for your Navigo in cash.
