For a limited time, Trip.com is offering UK National Rail railcards for a significant discount compared to their regular price. These railcards provide discounts on rail tickets of up to 50%.
Nine distinct types of railcards are currently available from National Rail, and they are all typically sold for the same set price of £30 for a card with a 12-month validity. However, Trip.com has temporarily reduced this cost to just £19.80, saving you 34% off the regular price.
The best part of this deal is that railcards are now sold digitally, making it possible to finish the entire application process through Trip.com or another authorized store and start using the railcard right away.
For those under the age of 30, one of the most popular railcard types is what was formerly known as the “young persons railcard.” There are three age divisions within this category:
- Holders aged between 16 and 17 years old are entitled to a 50%,
- Those aged 16-25 are entitled to a 1/3 discount,
- And those aged 26-30 years old are also entitled to a 1/3 discount.
There are several different railcards that are available that could help you save money, contrary to the common misconception that railcards are only for young people.
The Network Railcard, which provides a 1/3 discount on tickets for trains inside London and the South-East of England, is one of the most well-liked. Any person, whatever of age, may use this railcard as long as their departure and arrival take place at stations that qualify in the South East of England after 10 a.m.
This card is quite powerful since it offers a huge 60% off discount on kid tickets for up to four children aged 5 to 15, as well as the ability to travel with up to three adults at the same time and still receive the same 1/3 off.
Additionally, there are railcards designed specifically for the elderly, couples, and veterans; regrettably, Trip.com does not yet provide the veteran railcard. It is important to keep in mind that rail companies may impose additional limitations on the use of railcards, and sometimes they do.
Before it’s too late and you’re forced to pay a fare differential, it’s good making sure that the railcard you’re using can be used on the service you wish to take.
