Split Tickets for greater savings

Splitting tickets involves buying separate, cheaper tickets for different parts of your journey on the same train instead of just one ticket for the entire trip. For instance, if you're traveling from Dorchester to Southampton, you might find that purchasing a ticket from A to C, then C to B costs less than a direct ticket. This method is perfectly legal and often doesn't require leaving your seat.

Book in advance to save an average of 61%

Did you know that purchasing Advance Tickets can significantly reduce your travel expenses? On average, these tickets can save you an impressive 61% on fares. The best part is that the earlier you book (ideally up to 12 weeks in advance), the greater the savings!

Travel in a group to save 1/3

If you are traveling in a group, be sure to check out group travel discounts. Many train companies offer a ⅓ off standard fares for groups of three to nine people, making traveling from Dorchester to Southampton more affordable for families, friends, or colleagues planning a trip together.
