We're talking about integrated pricing.

You can't have one without the other.

But we do, remember?


But do you have any evidence?

This is Usenet, I don't need evidence ;-)


Then nor do I :-)



Why? Do different airlines have different routes into the airport?

They have their own gates in the departure lounge, which is the
equivalent for ticket-checking purposes.

No - the tickets have already been checked - at check-in


I'm learning (because I've effectively been away for a year), but one of
the things I'm learning is that the Oyster isn't as straight forward as
it looks.

Got to agree with you there! and its only about 5 years behind
schedule.....

For example, how do I use my pre-pay to buy a one day
travelcard?

You can't any more. Apparently you used to be able to but that was
found to be too useful so it was stopped. You *shouldn't* need to
anyway if they'd got the Oyster card scheme working properly :-)
