So just to confirm, the first season ticket / set of prices when you enter Cambridge to Farringdon on the season ticket calculator does not include the underground changeover? but the second one does?

Yes.

Do you have a railcard?
Presuming you are going to be travelling in peak time (arriving in London before 10am) and you are working four days this week, if you have a young person's railcard an Anytime return ticket is going to cost £22.75 per day (£91) so it's not worth buying a weekly ticket.

However if you don't have a railcard it's worth you getting a photocard and a week's ticket as an Anytime ticket without a railcard is £34.50 (34.50*4 = £138).


So basically, this week your options are:
1 week season ticket: £120 inc UG - need to get a photocard
4 x Anytime tickets: £138 inc UG
4 x Anytime tickets with railcard: £91

Thanks for your help! I just purchased a railcard and hopefully i'll recieve it by wed! Now just to get over the first day nerves!!! Also you mentioned 4 x Anytime tickets with railcard: £91, does that include UG or not?

Thanks!!

No, the £34.50 Anytime tickets have you walking from Kings X to St Pancras and getting a train from there.
There is a £41.00 ticket which includes the underground, that's an anytime Day Travelcard.

Good luck with your first day

4 x Anytime tickets: £138 inc UG then i'll look into the weekly tickets inc underground later on!
