Southeastern is encouraging flexible workers who travel twice a week to the office or workplace to buy a Flexi Season ticket and save up to 40% off a comparable day return for travel every day with special promotional prices having been extended until 14th October at selected stations.

Flexi Season ticket holders can travel on the train of their choice at any time on a day simply by activating a Flexi Pass in the Southeastern app making it quick and convenient to hop on a train when you need to: the special rate is available for a trial period at 45 stations in Kent and East Sussex.
Simon Byatt, Southeastern’s Head of Retail Strategy said: “Commuting patterns have changed in the last few years and we understand that people are trying to make their money go further. For people commuting two or three days a week, our Flexi Seasons offer better value for money than buying multiple peak time fares.”
Flexi Seasons were launched by the Department for Transport in June 2021 to give commuters the freedom and flexibility to divide their time between working from home and the office, giving commuters eight days of travel in 28 days – at any time – between two stations.
