The Majestic Channon Posted 17 October, 2011 Share Posted 17 October, 2011 Will be staying in central london for a few days next week, was just wondering if anyone is clued up re tube travel, is an oyster card the same as a one day travel card you used to be able to get? will be mainly in zone 1 and 2 but will be going to wembley central too, will it be cheaper paying for that journey seperate or getting a card covering the zone wembley is in ?

Hatch Posted 17 October, 2011 Share Posted 17 October, 2011 oyster card is supposed to work out cheaper than a one day travelcard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hutch Posted 18 October, 2011 Share Posted 18 October, 2011 is an oyster card the same as a one day travel card you used to be able to get? No, it's MI5's back up for when the webcams are offline or tracking hoodies. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rallyboy Posted 18 October, 2011 Share Posted 18 October, 2011 get an oyster card, stick a tenner on it, top it up and use it every time you are in London - cheaper fares and saves a lot of messing about deciding what zones you have to cross. Just spent a couple of days in Camden/Hackney area - it was nice to come home! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stu0x Posted 18 October, 2011 Share Posted 18 October, 2011 Oyster is basically a Pay-As-You-Go, and works out cheaper than buying individual tickets. The single travel rate for a journey on Oyster is already discounted, and it charges you the cheapest rate for your journeys over the course of a day (ie it will automatically switch you from singles to a travelcard if it would work out cheaper, based on the journeys you make).

Joensuu Posted 18 October, 2011 Share Posted 18 October, 2011 If you are planning on using national rail within the zones (not the 'Overground'), you will find it cheaper to avoid Oyster, and buy a travelcard instead... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
