Fares and ticketing made easy with c2c

c2c offers a wide range of fares, tickets and payment options to all customers.

Our simple and easy-to-understand fares and peak travel model is designed to ensure that all customers have quick and easy access to the correct tickets and best value fares for their journey.

Here we explain the different types of tickets and fares available to you for trips to and from London.

Our fares from December 3 2023

Single tickets

  • All of our Single tickets are priced at half of the equivalent return ticket during both the Peak and Off-Peak periods
  • The c2c Peak Single ticket is called an ‘Anytime Single’
  • Single tickets between two stations on the c2c network are priced the same, regardless of your route or direction of travel, if taking place during the same peak

Day Return tickets

  • c2c offer two types of Day Return ticket, Peak (known as ‘Anytime’) and Off-Peak
  • If making two trips in a day (one in the peak, one off-peak), then two single tickets may be of better value than the Anytime Day Return

Online advance tickets

  • Our Online advance tickets, only available from the c2c website and app, offer 40% off the standard Off-Peak Day return ticket price if purchased three or more days before you travel

Our Single, Day Return and Online advance tickets are available to buy direct from the c2c website and app (can be collected or downloaded to your c2c Smartcard) or from any one of our ticket offices or ticket vending machines.

Child tickets

  • Child tickets are available to passengers between 5 and 15 years of age and priced at 50% of the equivalent adult ticket.
