Buy any time, travel off-peak.
Off-Peak fares will be available for travel on or after 7 September 2008.
Off-Peak are cheaper fares for travelling when it’s less busy, so they have restrictions on when you can travel. Travel restrictions will generally relate to times of the day or days of the week that you can travel.
Where there is more than one Off-Peak fare for a journey, the cheaper fare with more restrictions will be named Super Off-Peak.
Off-Peak Single and Off-Peak Day fares must be used on the date printed on the ticket. The outward portion of an Off-Peak Return ticket must be used on the date printed on the ticket and the return portion is valid for one month.
Off-Peak tickets are available for travel in Standard Class and, where available, First Class. Reservations are not required, but maybe available on longer distance journeys and are sometimes highly recommended on busier services.
