Split tickets to save an average extra 30%

Splitting tickets is a perfectly legal practice that involves purchasing separate, cheaper tickets for different segments of your journey on the same train instead of a single ticket for the entire trip.

Book in advance to save an average of 61%

By planning your trip from Thornton Heath to Guildford ahead of time and booking your tickets early, you can potentially save up to 61% on your travel expenses.
