Hi all,

Does anyone know how regularly Southeastern release advance tickets for sale, and if there is any predictability to when they are released?

I had (incorrectly) assumed they were released daily, but for the last two weeks they have had weekday availability up to Friday 24th July, with no new availability released.

Any insight would be greatly received!

Most (all?) operators seem to load Advances once per week in blocks.

Thursday morning (9 or 10am) often seems to be the long-standing day and approximate time many operators do this.

Thanks very much for the insight. Southeastern haven’t released any new advance tickets for the last two Thursdays. Feels like this may be as simple as ‘the person who normally does it is on holiday’.

Isn't 25th July the start of the Charing Cross blockade? They might not be issuing advances for that period

This is the answer - thank you! I had no idea about the Charing Cross blockade and the ticket search was saying ‘no tickets yet released’ rather than ‘Waterloo East closed’. Have changed destination to London Bridge and now working.
