How to book cheap train tickets from Canterbury West to Maidstone East
Traveling in off-peak train times

Get 1/3 off with a Railcard

Split Tickets for greater savings
Splitting tickets is a perfectly legal practice that involves purchasing separate, cheaper tickets for different segments of your journey on the same train instead of a single ticket for the entire trip. For example, if you are travelling from Canterbury West to Maidstone East, you might discover that buying a ticket from A to C, and then another ticket from C to B, is more economical than a direct ticket.
