Cheap Train Tix: Southampton to London?

cookie_christmas

Anyone got any bright ideas on reducing the cost of train travel between Southampton Airport Parkway and London??

Need to get there next Sat around 12.00noon to see Les Mis show... Have a Network Railcard if this helps.

Maybe not... Megatrain is £16 each way on the date mentioned.
And a Super-off peak return w/railcard is £20.35.

Megabus is only £6 e/w.

Thank you for the tips, however, Im a bit new to this...

How did you find the £20.35 fare, Im looking at varioius websites now, but maybe not the right ones?

Try Southern's one day sale for the best bargain ever.

Must be booked today, even if not travelling today, however.

p.s. that will be from Southampton Central though... but worth it for the saving.

All of the train companies will tell you about this fare. It is a 'walk up and go ticket'... No need to book in advance... Buy at train station just before you travel.
