The monthly ticket that is very common in Germany either doesn't exist here or is ridiculously expensive. Even if you go by tube on a daily basis you are better off paying for each trip.
- gcoleman 7y agoThat's not true - season tickets are definitely cheaper than pay as you go if you travel every day. e.g. Annual Travelcards give you 12 months travel for the price of ten and a half. https://tfl.gov.uk/fares/how-to-pay-and-where-to-buy-tickets-and-oyster/travelcards-and-group-tickets https://tfl.gov.uk/fares/how-to-pay-and-where-to-buy-tickets...
- jsmith99 7y agoAnnual tickets are barely worth it if you just take the tube, not buses, and don't use it at weekends. Single fare prices were frozen by the mayor, but travelcards were not.
