Do you think it would ever be possible to have a flat fare on the
tube, and if so how much would it be.

New York manages with a flat fare of $2.25, and also 1, 7,14 and 30
day passes at $8.25, $13.50, $27,75 and $89.00 respectively. I
realise that a lot would depend on the level of subsidy available, and
perhaps today is not a good day to be talking about subsidy!

However looking at the 2011 off peak oyster fares that include Zone 1
there are only three fares (£1.90, £2.50 and £2.70) Excluding Zone 1
there are only two fares (£1.30 and £1.40) It seems to me that there
might be a case for merging some of the outer fare zones in order to
simplify the structure a little bit. I don't know what visitors to the
Olympics in 2012 will think.
