<a href="/trains/uk/railcard-guide/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">Using a Railcard for 1/3 off</a>

Explore a range of Railcards that typically offer 1/3 off most train tickets, including the 16-25, 26-30, Family & Friends, Two Together, Network and Senior Railcards, as well as the 16-17 Saver, which offers 50% off. They’re easy to purchase and store digitally in your Trip.com app, meaning you're only ever a tap away from great savings.
<a href="https://uk.trip.com/trains/guide/travel-with-large-groups/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">Group travel deals</a>

Group travel deals

Traveling with a group of 3 to 9 people? Most train companies offer group discounts, allowing you to save up to 1/3 on standard fares. This makes journeys from Exeter to Edinburgh more budget-friendly for families, friends, or colleagues traveling together.
<a href="https://uk.trip.com/trains/guide/what-is-a-split-save-train-ticket/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">Split Tickets discount</a>

Split Tickets discount

It might seem unusual, but buying several cheaper tickets for different sections of your journey can result in substantial savings - and you won't need to move seats at all. Even better, Trip.com automatically finds and arranges these split tickets for you, so there's no complicated planning required.
<a href="https://uk.trip.com/trains/guide/uk-train-off-peak-times/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">Travel during Off-Peak train times</a>

Travel during Off-Peak train times

To enjoy a calmer and often cheaper journey, we recommend choosing Off-Peak services and steering clear of the busy rush-hour periods. While timings differ slightly by operator, it's usually best to avoid traveling between 06:30 AM–09:30 AM and 4:00 PM–7:00 PM on weekdays. On weekends and bank holidays, Off-Peak fares apply all day.
