What it costs
£16.80 off-peak (£33.30 peak) for an adult single with contactless. Peak fares apply when you touch in between 06:30 and 09:30 or between 16:00 and 19:00, Monday to Friday. Everything else is off-peak, including all day Saturday and Sunday and public holidays.
Oyster works everywhere on the Elizabeth line except west of West Drayton. For Iver, Langley, Slough, Burnham, Taplow, Maidenhead, Twyford and Reading, use contactless or a paper ticket.
Daily and weekly capping limits what you pay across all TfL services, so several journeys in a day often cost less than the singles added up.
