How to avoid Cape Cod traffic for as little as $10

Getting to the Cape without dealing with traffic, reclining back into a comfy chair with great views and a cocktail in hand sounds pretty good, right?

What if it was for just $10?

The CapeFLYER is back for its 10th summer and offering just that. For the month of June, the train service that takes Bostonians to Hyannis — with stops in Braintree, Brockton, Middleborough, Wareham Village, Buzzards Bay and Bourne — is offering roundtrip rides for just $10. Roundtrips outside the month of June are $40, and kids 11 and under ride free with a paying adult.

“We are very excited to be entering our 10th season of offering visitors and locals transportation to the Cape and Islands without encountering traffic. It’s wonderful to put the Cape’s 3rd bridge (the Rail bridge) into use to relieve the congestion summer weekends have on our infrastructure. We have worked closely with the Steamship Authority, Hy-Line and Island Queen ferry operators to provide seamless connections to Nantucket and Martha’s Vineyard,” said CCRTA Administrator Thomas Cahir. “We are excited to offer our loyal passengers this $10 round-trip fare for the entire month of June as a thank you to all of their years of ridership.”

CapeFLYER trains are equipped with a Café Car that offers light fare and cocktails courtesy of Blonde on the Run Catering. There’s also a coach that can take your bike down to the Cape if you want to hop right on the Cape Cod Rail Trail.

“We’re excited to again offer this service with our partners at Keolis and CCRTA, and congratulate the CapeFLYER team on 10 years of service,” said MBTA General Manager and CEO Phillip Eng. “The CapeFLYER is another example of the importance we place on supporting transit services outside the scope of the traditional daily commute. We look forward to another successful CapeFLYER season while we demonstrate the benefits of using public transportation.”
