Hi,
I've been regularly commuting up to London 2 days a week for ~18 months, with the price of the return journey generally being in the £30-40 region with advance tickets. This is generally along the SWR main line, from Southampton Airport Parkway to London Wayerloo. Peak time trains in both directions.
As of the price updates on the 1st, I'm now seeing prices of ~£60 for the same journey. Having checked a few other stations, it seems that there are no advance tickets available at all in some cases. Farnborough Main to Waterloo for instance is only showing anytime tickets, even looking ahead to May.
Is this to be expected after an update to pricing? I'm hoping that this is temporary rather than the new status quo, but can't find any information online to confirm what's happened.
