Oyster PAYG on rail to the edge of zone
In message , at 18:13:32
on Tue, 25 Nov 2008, remarked: So the employer is happy to pay for a ticket with a stopover, but he's not happy to pay the tube fare to Putney?? I think the cheapest fares include the stopover. While it's sometimes cheaper to buy a fare and hotel as a package and get it cheaper, it's rare that a hotel+fare package is cheaper than the cheapest fare. (Sits back to wait for lots of anecdotes where it is...) -- Roland Perry |

on Wed, 26 Nov 2008, remarked: As the visits are for academic purposes does it not occur to you that the hosts might provide accommodation? At the airport? (If not at the airport, then there's some fares to pay[1] - or do they have a free shuttle bus). [1] The earlier proposition you suggested was that stopovers didn't involve employers paying any fares. -- Roland Perry |

No, such that only travel and not accommodation is an expense that needs to be reclaimed. You're being very dense today, Roland. (If not at the airport, then there's some fares to pay[1] - or do they have a free shuttle bus). [1] The earlier proposition you suggested was that stopovers didn't involve employers paying any fares. They pay the air fares but the stopover rather than transit option isn't on their account. At least AIUI. -- Colin Rosenstiel |

No, such that only travel and not accommodation is an expense that needs to be reclaimed. You're being very dense today, Roland. You aren't explaining the rules very well. So far we have stopovers-allowed, but travel-from-airport not allowed. -- Roland Perry |

Sounds simple enough to me. -- Colin Rosenstiel |
