Important details if you know anyone travelling to Heathrow.
The move means that a journey between central London and Heathrow Airport on the Piccadilly line will cost £5.50.The Mayor of London Sadiq Khan said: "This fare increase was chosen as one which would have a lower impact on Londoners currently worried about the cost of living, and to ensure that journeys that avoid Zone 1 will not be affected, helping to protect those living near and working at the airport.
A new £3.6bn government bailout - TfL's sixth since May 2020 - was agreed on Tuesday in order to secure the long-term future of the capital's transport network. Mr Khan also warned of increased fares, just two weeks after Londoners were warned of potential Tube and bus fare rises of up to 14% next year.Arguably this tweak is a tourist or traveller charge.
Off-peak is designed to attract passengers to quieter times, but with Heathrow Airport it is busy most of the time.
