Season ticket London to Chatham

[tannedfrog]

Hello,

1. I'm looking to buy a weekly season ticket to Chatham, ideally to include underground travel as well.

The season ticket calculator doesn't seem to let me include underground travel unless it's a Chatham to London season ticket (which I assume is essentially the same thing). Shall I just ask for Chatham to London, even if I buy it in London?

2. The season ticket calculator suggests that there is a option of a season ticket from St Pancras which is not valid on High Speed services, is this true?

3. Can I get off at intermediate stations with a season ticket? eg Rochester?

4. Can a season ticket start any day or does it have to be Monday?

Many thanks

The ticket is issued as:
Origin : CHATHAM
Destination : LONDON ZONES 1-6
and there is a choice of
Route : NOT VALID ON HS1 - £89.90, or
Route : PLUS HIGH SPEED - £110.20.

It is a Travelcard valid for all trains, tubes, service buses, trams and DLR within Zones 1-6.

2. The season ticket calculator suggests that there is a option of a season ticket from St Pancras which is not valid on High Speed services, is this true?

Yes.

Origin : LONDON ST PANCRS
Destination : CHATHAM
Route : NOT VALID ON HS1 - £77.80

This ticket is not normally valid by tube and has to be used on FCC's Thameslink services between St Pancras and Blackfriars. There are special arrangements for it to be accepted by tube and/or bus when that route is closed.

3. Can I get off at intermediate stations with a season ticket?

Yes.

4. Can a season ticket start any day

Yes.
