How to book cheap train tickets from Exeter to Edinburgh
Season tickets for frequent travelers
Regular commuters traveling between Exeter and Edinburgh - whether weekly, monthly, or annually - can benefit greatly from season tickets. Season tickets allow unlimited travel between both stations within specific time periods, offering substantial savings and eliminating the need to purchase individual tickets for every trip.
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.
Using a Railcard for 1/3 off
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.
Split Tickets discount
While it may sound surprising, splitting your route into smaller segments and purchasing separate low-cost tickets can greatly reduce the overall fare, all without changing seats. The best part is that Trip.com does all the splitting and organising for you, removing any need for time-consuming research on your end.
