I am travelling from LHR T5 to Southampton in July.
I am contemplating travelling by Railair Link. There are some very attractive fares on advance tickets with a railcard discount but these tickets are valid for a specific train only.
I am bit concerned that my flight may be late or I may even get through arrivals earlier than anticipated and be able to get an earlier bus and train than the one the ticket is valid on.
In any case choosing which time train to book is quite a challenge
Am I better off buying a flexible ticket - though the fare differential is very considerable - or do the on train staff not enforce the validity rules in the circumstances I have outlined.
Advice please.
