How to book cheap train tickets from Reading to Waterloo
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.
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.
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 Reading to Waterloo more budget-friendly for families, friends, or colleagues traveling together.
Season tickets for frequent travelers
If you travel between Reading and Waterloo on a weekly, monthly, or annual basis, we'd highly recommend a season ticket, which provides unlimited travel between the 2 stations (during specific times) for a set price. Not only will you receive significant savings, but you'll also remove the stress of purchasing individual tickets.
Which train ticket types are available for this route?
Advance train tickets
Available up to 12 weeks before the journey, these are generally the most cost-effective option for cost-conscious travelers
Off-Peak & Super Off-Peak tickets
Provides a more affordable and flexible way to travel by steering clear of weekday rush hours
Return train tickets
Valid for both an outward and return journey from the same destination on your chosen route
Flexi Season tickets
Flexi Season tickets suit travelers who commute a few days a week, offering 8 days of unlimited travel in a 28-day period—which often works out cheaper than buying tickets on an individual daily basis
