How to book cheap train tickets from St Mary Cray to Canterbury East

Travelling in off-peak train times

Using the Railcard for 1/3 off

With a Railcard, you can save up to 1/3 on most rail fares. There are different types of Railcards available, such as the 16–25 Railcard, the Family & Friends Railcard, and the Senior Railcard, each catering to specific groups of travellers. You can discover more about Railcards here.

Split Tickets for greater savings

This method is perfectly legal and often doesn’t require leaving your seat.
