How to book cheap train tickets from Gatwick Airport to Portsmouth & Southsea

Traveling in off-peak train times

We recommend buying train tickets from Gatwick Airport to Portsmouth & Southsea during off-peak hours.

Split tickets to save an average extra 30%

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 Gatwick Airport to Portsmouth & Southsea, 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%

Advance Tickets are typically released up to 12 weeks before the travel date and can offer significant savings compared to tickets purchased closer to departure.
