Heading to Gatwick this evening, and Ican't work out how much it will cost via Oyster card to get there.

I have a Z1-4 travel card currently, so how much on top will the Gatwick leg take, travelling from Clap Junction?

Anyone know any websites that could work it out

Cheers

But as I've got a 1-4 oyster card, would some of that fare not be reduced?

£11.80 is the daily cap.

The cheapest way - if you can be bothered - is to get off the train at East Croydon, buy a ticket to Gatwick, go back into the station and catch the Gatwick train.

You'll have to pay a extension to Zone 5 (East croydon) but suspect that you'd still save a few pounds.

I think that the East Croydon to Gatwick fair is about £4.50.

Assuming the travelcard is also loaded on the same card that you use for PAYG, I reckon £9.70 (assuming evening peak rate)
