If you do have a Key card, buy your Flexi Season ticket today. You can easily buy Flexi Season tickets here or via our Southeastern app and load to your Key card. Before you travel, all you have to do is activate a day’s Flexi Season pass using the Southeastern app. Remember to activate before each of your 8 days of travel. 

If you forget to do this, you can activate Flexi Season passes on a gateline reader at the station (if available) or seek out a member of staff who can activate it for you.

We recommend you buy your next Flexi Season ticket after you’ve used all 8 days of travel on your active ticket. If you do need to buy another Flexi Season ticket before finishing your active ticket, you must ensure the start date of your next Flexi Season ticket is after the date you intend to use your 8th day of travel.

Is Flexi Season the right ticket for me?

Depending on how regularly you’ll be travelling, our Flexi Season ticket could be the right ticket for you. Our new Season Ticket Calculator will help you find the best value ticket for your journey, if you are planning to travel regularly on weekdays during peak times. Simply enter your journey details and it will search for the best value ticket. 

Tickets you can buy include Flexi Season, Weekly, Monthly, Custom and Annual Season tickets, plus Anytime Day Returns.

Our Season Ticket Calculator is only able to sell one ticket at a time so you may need to buy multiple tickets to get the best value for money. If you’re logged in to your Southeastern account you can favourite your ticket, allowing you to quickly buy it again. 

Total period cost  Please note annual leave is not factored in to the calculation of the Total period cost.  For 12 calendar months of travel, the Flexi Season ticket Total period cost will vary depending on how many days a week you plan to travel.  For travel up to 2 days a week for 12 calendar months, the calculation for the Total period cost is based on 12 x Flexi Season tickets.  If you plan to travel more than 2 days a week for 12 calendar months, more than 12 Flexi Season tickets will be needed and the calculation for the Total period cost will reflect that.  Customers travelling 3 days per week If you are travelling 3 days per week, you will need more than one Flexi Season ticket in a month. Flexi Season tickets are valid for up to 28 days, so any days travel unused can be used in the following calendar month. This may not be clear in the Season Ticket Calculator results when a 3 day per week work pattern is selected for an odd number of months (i.e. 1, 3, 5 etc). For a comparable Cost per day, please select an even (i.e. 2, 4, 6 etc) number of months.

Where can I travel with a Flexi Season ticket? 

You can travel with a Flexi Season ticket between two stations of your choice. These can be for stations that are both located outside the London Travelcard Zones, or from a station outside the London Travelcard Zones to anywhere within the zones, for example, Tonbridge to Lewisham or London Terminals.

Flexi Season tickets are not available for journeys between two stations within the London Travelcard Zones 1-8, for example Bromley South to London Terminals, or for journeys that include Travelcard add ons.

Please note this does not offer a full comparison of all the fares available for your journey. If you travel at off-peak times, use our online journey planner.
