Hi Everyone,

Thank you,
josef

    If those are the only journeys you make, then PAYG Oyster is the cheapest.

    By bus it will cap at £3.90 a day - a 50 minute plus journey with a change of bus at Hyde Park Corner. You can make any number of additional bus journeys the same day for free

    By tube it will take 20 minutes and cost £1.80 a journey (so £3.60 for home to work and back) up to a maximum of £7.20 (peak) or £5.60 (off peak) a day. If you reach the cap every day a travelcard is cheaper - £25.80 a week, roughly £99 a month or just over £1K a year - with unlimited travel in zones 1-2 and on all buses.
