First things first: ditch the paper ticket. It’s the most expensive way to travel, period. Instead, use a contactless card, your phone, or an Oyster card—these cap your daily and weekly fares automatically.
Here’s the magic: if you tap the same card or device for every journey, you’ll never pay more than the daily price cap. That means you can hop on and off all day for the price of a single return ticket. Ka-ching!
Pro tip: Always tap the same card for every journey. Mixing cards confuses the system and costs you more. Don’t let the machine outsmart you!
