Paris Navigo Semaine Now Covers 5 Zones?
The RATP site seems to indicate that the Navigo Semaine now covers 5 zones for 21.25€ (the previous cost for zones 1-2).
(a) Is that correct?
(b) Does that include CDG (zone 5) and Versailles (Zone 4) do not cost extra anymore?
Thanks.

Yes and Yes. We recharged our passes at CDG and used them on the RER to the Gare du Nord. During our stay we also used them to go to Meaux where they were good for the local bus to the World War I Museum. The Navigo passes are truly a great bargain now.

This is great! I'll be there for a week in March and was debating which level/zones to buy, so now I don't have to choose.
Where else can one go with the pass through zone 5? Also, I assume this does not cover CDG airport?

It does cover CDG. A single RER ticket between CDG and central Paris costs around E10 each way. A weekly Navigo pass at E21.25 covers those trips plus unlimited travel in the five zones for a week.

I just checked and the Navigo pass is good for a calendar week, Monday AM until Sunday PM. Available for the following week from Friday.

This link allows you to plan your trips, and how far out zone 5 goes can be determined here too.

www.vianavigo.com is also very useful for planning trips in the suburbs.

There are some tickets that cover zone 5 that don't include CDG, so it is a reasonable question. In fact, I'm kind of surprised they did this. I think the Mobilis zone 5 ticket doesn't cover CDG nor the Roissybus. I don't really know why as if that were the only reason you bought it, it would be cheaper just to buy the ticket to CDG on the RER.

"Where else can one go with the pass through zone 5?"

Thinking of going to Chantilly as a day trip. From the RATP site, it looks like this is just outside the edge of Zone 5, but a straight shot on RER D from Gare du Nord. Am I seeing that right?
If so, how does it work with a Navigo Pass? Can we get most of the way there? Do we need to buy a full ticket or a partial ticket from Gare du Nord?

Unfortunately, you must pay the full fare from Paris to Chantilly because you are leaving the <i>Ile de France</i> area which has a special subsidized fare structure. (Yes, I checked this on the SNCF site.)

kerouac- Thanks for the quick reply. That's a bummer, though we may choose to go anyway since it looks so interesting.
I was hoping to keep costs down by buying the Navigo and the Museum Pass and sticking to places I could go with both.
Any thoughts on the other Chateau available with the Museum pass and using Navigo?
We've already been to Versailles. I was also looking at Fontainbleu and Vincennes.

Follow up question/clarification:
Does the Navigo Semaine cover the Transilien trains to zone 5?
For our upcoming visit, we are contemplating a day trip to either Provins or Crecy-la-Chapelle.
Both involve Transilien train P from Gare de l'Est. (I know there's a change at Esbly for Crecy-la-Chapelle.)
Both are in zone 5...so (hopefully) they will be covered by the Navigo Semaine...right?
Thanks.
