Local tips
- Always stand on the right side of escalators in the London Underground to allow others to pass on the left.
- Pay for public transport using a contactless card or mobile device, as cash is not accepted on buses or the Tube.
- Check your restaurant bill for an optional 12.5% service charge before adding a separate tip.
- Wait your turn in an orderly queue for services and transport, as jumping the line is considered a major social faux pas.
