In a bid to try and get workers back in the office post-pandemic, Govia Thameslink Railway is offering commuters cheaper advanced tickets 🎟 🚂
The train company is trying to encourage people to commute into the office again on Mondays and Fridays in a bid to lure them back to the office.On a typical Monday, GTR sees 210,000 passengers use its services compared to between 230,000 to 250,000 mid-week.
On Friday, the figure drops to 160,000 and they hope the lure of cheaper train tickets will entice people back in five days a week. Trials for the scheme are happening between Victoria, Clapham Junction and East Croydon stations, and those south of Three Bridges and West Sussex. They are also trialing a loyalty scheme for people to collect points that can be redeemed for rewards such as days out, cinema tickets and coffee.
Advance tickets are usually only available for off-peak services to cater for leisure passengers and are cheaper than walk-up fares.
