How to book cheap train tickets from Canterbury East to Birmingham

Travelling in off-peak train times

We recommend buying train tickets from Canterbury East to Birmingham during off-peak hours.

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

Instead of purchasing a direct ticket from Canterbury East to Birmingham, you can split the route into two legs: A to C and C to B. This is often cheaper than purchasing a direct ticket, and you usually won’t need to change trains or seats.

Book in advance to save an average of 61%
