standard fares

Normal ticket costs

Standard fares are the regular, unreduced prices charged for transportation—particularly on buses, trains, and airlines.

The term distinguishes full-price tickets from discounted options like student fares, senior fares, or promotional rates: Children under five ride free; all others pay standard fares.

In broader use, standard fare (singular) means typical or expected offerings: The menu was standard fare for a diner.
