Can you use your Oystercard on the Javelin?


I don't think so. I don't recall Oyster readers on the Southeastern gates at
St pancras International.

For completeness Travelcards are not valid either (except outboundary
travelcards from origins in Kent).

(For some odd reason the new TfL/Atoc map that replaces both the TfL Oyster
map and ATOC's familiar 'London Connections' map has dropped the warnings
about travelcards not being usable on HEx, HCon, and SE HS, but does warn
for PAYG. That will lead to more arguments presumably...)

The one I saw on my KGX-CBG journey this afternoon seemed to include a
warning about Travelcards.

A shame, indeed.

Is the one-third discount for Network Southeast applicable on the
high-speed for holders of an annual gold card?

I wonder if Oysters will eventually be accepted on the high-speed.

Yes - Railcard discounts are available on tickets 'via HS1' in accordance
with normal conditions.

Oyster acceptance is unlikely, but ITSO cards will presumably be accepted when SouthEastern introduce them.
