How to book cheap train tickets from Canterbury to Plumstead

Travelling in off-peak train times

Off-Peak train tickets are generally cheaper than peak-time tickets, allowing travel outside morning (06:30-09:30) and evening (16:00-19:00) rush hours on weekdays. If your schedule allows for flexibility, choosing off-peak times for your trip from Canterbury to Plumstead can result in significant cost savings.

Using the Railcard for 1/3 off

Split Tickets to save an average extra 30%

Another option to consider is splitting your tickets, which can save you around extra 30% on fares. Instead of purchasing a direct ticket from Canterbury to Plumstead, you can split the route into two legs: A to C and C to B.

Book in advance to save an average of 61%
