Split Tickets to save an average extra 30%
Splitting tickets involves buying separate, cheaper tickets for different parts of your journey on the same train instead of just one ticket for the entire trip. For instance, if you're travelling from Looe to Gloucester, you might find that purchasing a ticket from A to C, then C to B costs less than a direct ticket. This method is perfectly legal and often doesn’t require leaving your seat.
Book in advance to save an average of 61%
Advance Tickets are usually released up to 12 weeks before the travel date and can be significantly cheaper than tickets purchased closer to departure. By planning your trip from Looe to Gloucester ahead of time and securing your tickets early, you can save up to 61% on the cost of your travel.
Group travels to save 1/3
If you are travelling in a group of three to nine people, take advantage of group travel discounts, offered by most train companies, for a discount of up to 1/3 on standard fares. This can make travelling from Looe to Gloucester more affordable for families, friends, or colleagues planning a trip together.
