Instead of one ticket for your whole journey, we book two or more tickets for the same trip. For example, Leeds to Glasgow can be far cheaper as Leeds to Bingley, Bingley to Motherwell and Motherwell to Glasgow. You stay on the same train; the only difference is the price. We check automatically that your train stops at every split point. Is split ticketing legal? Yes. Split ticketing is permitted under the National Rail Conditions of Travel, and every ticket we sell is a normal National Rail ticket. Do I really save money with split tickets? Yes. Our customers save an average of 26%, and up to 90%, compared with buying a single ticket for the same journey. If a split is not cheaper, we simply show you the normal fare. Will I have to get on and off the train? No. You travel on the same train with no extra changes. Occasionally you may need to change seats along the way, and we try to avoid that wherever we can. What is the cheapest way to buy train tickets in the UK? Book in advance, use a railcard if you have one, and let a split ticket search compare every combination of fares. Split My Fare does all three in one search, with no booking fee on top. Which routes can I save on? Cheap train tickets and split ticket savings come up on intercity and commuter routes across Great Britain, including London to Manchester, Birmingham, Leeds, Edinburgh, Glasgow, Bristol, Newcastle and York, and thousands more.
