Hi Ben, really appreciate your excellent and thorough answers!!
I just downloaded the Paris 2024 Transport Public app and noticed that single T+ tickets are still offered at Euro 2.15. Not the higher Olympic price of Euro 4. If I buy them now, do you know if I will be able to use them during the Olympics?
thanks!

Yes Paris transit fare Ticket t+ purchased before the 2024 Olympics period of July 20 - Sept 8 will still be valid & useful during the Olympics period. So it's better to buy them before the Olympics to pay the lower / normal price (2.15€) instead of the high price (4€). The French article detailing the price changes even suggests locals to pre-purchase their transit tickets before this time period of elevated transit fares arrives. The tickets start their validity period (90 minutes) once they're validated in a turnstile/faregate. Prior to validation, single-use Paris transit fares basically have no expiry and can be used at any time in the future. Happy to answer other questions you might have.
