Hi all

I have been trying for ages to find a cheap way to travel from Cleethorpes to Edinburgh on Friday this week and can't find a way of doing it less than £180 each way. If anyone can help, I would really appreciate it

Cheers all
MAY THE ODDS BE EVER IN YOUR FAVOUR

    Only way to purchase the cheapest Tickets is to purchase them as early in advance as possible. The ealiest Tickets come out for purchase is 12 weeks in advance!

    Buy separate tickets for Cleethorpes to Doncaster, Doncaster to Edinburgh and back. Allow extra time to make the connection between trains at Doncaster

    Most fares for Cleethorpes to Doncaster are £18.10 RETURN Doncaster to Edinburgh are coming out as £36 but we can't say how much it will cost to return from Edinburgh to Doncaster as you haven't told us when you are returnuing
