Save money while avoiding the rush!
If you have to be somewhere but don't need to get there early in the morning, an Off-Peak or Off-Peak Day ticket is what you need.
Off-Peak Day
If you're going to complete your journey in a Day check out our Off-Peak Day tickets.
Avoid the masses by starting your journey after the morning peak period (09:30am) and come back anytime the same day to save money.
Remember all trains after 09:30 are permitted and on some routes you can start earlier. For journeys from outside the London Travelcard Area you can travel on trains that arrive in London Bridge or Victoria at 10:00 or later.
Off-Peak Return
These tickets are ideal for overnight stays and weekend or longer trips away as your return journey can be made anytime within one calendar month after the issue date.
Just remember your outward and return journeys must not start before 09:30 Mondays to Friday but are valid anytime on weekends and bank holidays.
