Question: When did the issuers of The Macau Pass begin service?
Context: A cash advance is a service provided by most credit card and charge card issuers.  The service allows cardholders to withdraw cash, either through an ATM or over the counter at a bank or other financial agency, up to a certain limit.  For a credit card, this will be the credit limit (or some percentage of it).

Seoul Subway Line 9, operated by Seoul Metro Line9 Corporation, is a subway line in Seoul.  Originally scheduled to open on June 12, 2009, the line actually opened on July 24, 2009, to ensure that the line was fully ready to begin service.

Unlike the rubber-tire technology used on the Metro's current lines, Line 6's trains would have run on steel wheels.  Planned as the first of a series of new routes along existing railways, in 1982 the Ministère de Transport du Québec expected Line 6 to begin service along 23.3 km of Canadian National railway tracks by 1989.  Intersecting the Orange Line (Line 2) at Du College and Sauve stations (along with a planned transfer with the also-unbuilt Red Line, or Line 3), the line would have had 11 stations.  Running along the northern part of the island, it would have passed through the then-independent city of St. Laurent, Ahuntsic, Saint-Michel, Montreal-Nord, Riviere-des-Prairies and Pointe-aux-Trembles.  Planned stations included elevated stops along viaducts, and ones at ground level.
