Thanks David. Just to be sure, ANY PERMITTED includes Gatwick Express?


Yes. BUT, I've just double checked the Conditions of Carriage and it looks
like you can only combine a Travelcard *Season* (i.e. not a one-day
ticket) with a boundary zone ticket. Damn!


You've read the wrong information. A boundary zone extension is a specific
product (an 'excess fare' in reality) which extends the validity of a zonal
ticket that you already have, so the normal 'combination' rules are not
relevant.

The procedure is definitely ok for day as well as season travelcards. It was
all thoroughly explained in the old Fares Manual section K, unfortunately no
longer online.
