Oyster Card Question - Child?

Question

Hello!

I have a few questions about the Tube!

It says that an Oyster single fare is £1.20, what exactly does this mean.

I want to travel from Barkingside to Waterloo.

So I have to get the Central Line then Waterloo and City line, does this count as two fares as I have swiped in and out twice or is this just one single fare?

Thanks =)

Answer 1

if you change lines like district to jubilee. dont swipe as that its just wasting money. zone 1 is expensive to travel and cost 70p for a single journey. also just buy a travel card for £2 which gives you all of the zones and free buses. to get this. goto a local newsagent or to those machines with the oyster thing.

Answer 2

Transport for London should answer your questions

Answer 3

TfL says Central Line to Stratford, then Jubilee Line to Waterloo. That would be a single journey since you never leave the Underground or swipe out until you get to Waterloo.
