- 1Plural of fare.
Airline fares tend to climb sharply during the holiday season.
The transit authority froze all fares for the coming year.
Note
The plural belongs only to the countable meanings of fare. Ticket money is the familiar one, but a cabdriver who picked up three fares that night means three passengers, not three payments. Fare as food and drink stays uncountable, so a menu offers simple fare rather than simple fares, and the same holds for supplies laid in for consumption or pleasure.
