How to book cheap train tickets from Glenrothes With Thornton to Blackpool

Travelling in off-peak train times

Off-Peak train tickets are generally cheaper than peak-time tickets, allowing travel outside morning (06:30-09:30) and evening (16:00-19:00) rush hours on weekdays. If your schedule allows for flexibility, choosing off-peak times for your trip from Glenrothes With Thornton to Blackpool can result in significant cost savings.

Using the Railcard for 1/3 off

Split Tickets for greater savings

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%
