Recent research from Greater Anglia has revealed that more than a fifth of people are not aware of the various train ticket types available, with travellers potentially losing out on significant savings as a result. Of those surveyed, 2 in 5 people were similarly unaware of the special ticket offers, which range from savings of more than 30% on group travel, to journeys into the capital from just £10.
Greater Anglia has identified the top three money-savers for savvy train travellers looking for the best value:
Group Save: Planning a day out with friends or family? Take advantage of GroupSave and get 1/3 off all fares for groups of three to nine adults travelling together Off-Peak. Available online or at any station across the Greater Anglia network.
Advance Fares: By purchasing an Advance ticket, you can choose the best time to travel at the lowest available fare. Available up to three months before travel. Tickets are priced as single leg fares from £7 one way from Cambridge and from £5 one way from Southend.
Off Peak Returns: Greater Anglia’s range of Off-Peak or Super Off-Peak tickets can offer great savings. The Off-peak Return is valid on the date shown for the outward journey, but offers a month’s window for the return, perfect for a longer trip. For London journeys, they also allow for completion of late evening returns, with validity until 0430 the next morning.
Other options include the Off-Peak Day Return which has no PM restrictions from London, and the Super Off-Peak Day Return which has PM restrictions but offers even greater value - allowing for complete flexibility for all budgets when travelling by rail.
