GroupSave

Travelling with 10 or more people?

When travelling in a large group on our services, your best-value option is often to split the group into multiple smaller groups of 3-9. This way you might be eligible to save 1/3 with GroupSave. When buying online, you can only initially select up to 9 passengers, but once this group has been added to basket, just click “add another journey” and you can repeat the process. You can add up to 50 tickets to your basket, to be processed in one payment. If you are travelling in a group with children, you also have a couple of alternatives to save:

• Children under 5 travel free
• Up to 4 children 5-15yrs can travel for £2 on most journeys across our network, when travelling with a fee paying adult at Off-Peak times
• If neither of the above apply, then children 5-15 will also receive 50% off the adult fare

The great news is that depending on the composition of your group, our booking engine will automatically select the best value option for you.

Are there any restrictions when buying a GroupSave ticket?

Because the discounted rates on GroupSave tickets are so good, you’re unable to get any additional discounts through the use of railcards. GroupSave tickets can even be used during weekday peak times and your whole group must travel together on the same trains, even if your route involves you changing trains.

There are some days when group rail tickets can’t be used on some services, for example when there are major events happening.
