London Pass - Available through AAA?
 
We will be visiting London during the 3rd week of May, and wish to purchase the London Pass. In order to avoid waiting in a line to purchase it once we arrive in London, we were wondering if it can be ordered through our local AAA office, and whether there is an additional charge for that.

Why do you want to buy that horribly over priced London Pass??? Bad idea.

There are much better discounts including the Days Out 2for1's

We used the London Pass (it was a gift). It was purchased in Australia from a travel agent who gave a voucher which had to be exchanged in London for the real pass. I don't know whether all travel agents (including AAA) would do the same. We used it a lot in our week in London but can't say whether or not it was good value compared with 2for1. I know we used at least the face value of the pass.

If you use the 2for1 system, check the train ticket eligibility as it's not immediately obvious (at least for those of us not familiar with London's ticketing system). Great system though.

There is really no benefit to the London Pass -- but yes, if it is <i>free</i>, then it is definitely a good option ;)
