I'm travelling from London Gatwick to Guildford return on the 12 & 13th April. I've checked out a few websites re: prices and best i see is £19 on national rail website. being from Northern Ireland not sure if this is the best website/price- so if anyone knows of a better website or discount code i'd really appreciate your help!!

There are some Value Advace C singles available on the outward journey for £5.00. But the catch is they are only for the 14:54 Cross Country departure from LGW. You would still need a Cheap Day Single (valid on any train, no need to book in advance) at £9.10 for the other direction.
Personaly, I would buy a Cheap Day Single each day at the station when I was ready to travel.... £9.10 each way. No worries/cost of postal service etc.

Wanting tickets for 2 adults & 1 child to Manchester Airport from Hudds 23rd April, coming back 3rd May. The only online train company I have used before was thetrainline.com which is saying about £28 with a Family Railcard but it's now saying it's going to charge for posting the tickets out which it never has before. Is there anywhere else to try to get cheaper tickets? Thanks x

Yes, any train operating company. I always recommend that you book through the train operator that you will be travelling on, as occassionally you get special deals on their fares. I suspect you will be travelling on First Transpennine, here is a link to their website.

Yes - most of the train company websites will sell you those same tickets at the same price with no extra charges. As will Huddersfield station booking office.


http://www.firstgreatwestern.co.uk/ will do - I just happen to have a short cut set up for them. It doesn't matter that they don't run the trains you will use.
