A multi-operator ticket covers this route — it's valid on other companies' buses in the area too, which usually beats buying singles if you change buses.
Ticket types come from Kent Country's own fares data on the Bus Open Data Service, last updated 28 September 2026. That dataset lists what's sold, not what it costs, so check prices with Kent Country.
Christmas & bank holidays
These dates are not the usual timetable for the day they fall on. They come from the operator’s published data, which for Christmas and New Year is often late or incomplete, so check with Kent Country before you travel. Everything above is an ordinary week.
Not published yet: Christmas Eve, Christmas Day, Boxing Day, 27 December, 28 December, 29 December, 30 December, New Year's Eve, New Year's Day and 2 January. Operators often publish festive timetables only a few weeks ahead, so check again nearer the date.
