Southend Airport.

I’m travelling from London Liverpool Street to Southend Airport next month.

Ive found that tickets are cheaper if I book a trip to Southend on-sea, 2 stops past SE Airport.

Question, can I break the journey at Southend Airport?

Thanks you.

    This depends on the type of ticket are you buying:

    You need to go into the terms and conditions for info on break of journey.

    You do hear of the odd person being caught out here, may depend on if the station has barriers, a different route etc, have you tried a ticket splitting site to see if they can do it cheaper like that

    Sam Vimes' Boots Theory of Socioeconomic Unfairness: 

    People are rich because they spend less money. A poor man buys $10 boots that last a season or two before he's walking in wet shoes and has to buy another pair. A rich man buys $50 boots that are made better and give him 10 years of dry feet. The poor man has spent $100 over those 10 years and still has wet feet.
