Split tickets to save an average extra 30%

For instance, if you're traveling from Basingstoke to Shotts, 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%
