Default Quick question re out-of-zone Travelcard on Oyster (ping PaulC?)

Would a Z1-6 on Oyster not count as a "Season Ticket or travel pass
issued on behalf of a passenger transport executive or local
authority"?


Nope, as TfL aren't a PTE or Local Authority. A Travelcard is a Zonal
Ticket.

What you *could* do, however, is buy a Hertford Stations - Zone 6
Travelcard plus a Zone 1 - 5 on Oyster, which would then satisfy
Condition 19(a).

Doing a quick fares check, however, shows that doing so would cost
nearly £210 MORE than buying a paper ticket for the complete journey:

Hertford Stations - Zone 6 : £1560
Zones 1-5 Travelcard : £1592
Total : £3152

Hertford Stations - All Zones : £2944



Ha! Oh well, thanks for checking, Barry!
