Hi,

I’ve realised GWR release their advances 18 weeks ahead of time, not 12 as I thought, so I’m booking some travel for 24th September (Swansea to London). Their app shows tickets available throughout the day, mostly advances.

Wanting best value for money, I thought to check if a split was cheaper, but both the forum’s ticket site, and split ticketing are unable to find a journey for that day. Any ideas why?

It's likely that the "extended" availability is restricted to bookings made through GWR's app and website so they can be sure of having customer details to send a notification if the timetable changes after the ticket has been purchased.
