How to book cheap train tickets from Ipswich to Ely

Book in advance

Booking Advance tickets at least 1 week before departure can reduce your fare by up to 61% on routes from Ipswich to Ely. Advance fares are usually released 12 weeks prior to travel and exclude Anytime fares, with savings depending on route availability.

Split Tickets discount

It might seem unusual, but buying several cheaper tickets for different sections of your journey can result in substantial savings - and you won't need to move seats at all. Even better, Trip.com automatically finds and arranges these split tickets for you, so there's no complicated planning required.

Group travel deals

If your party consists of 3 to 9 travellers, you can benefit from group travel discounts — often up to a third off regular ticket prices. It's a great way to make trips from Ipswich to Ely more affordable for friends, family, or work groups.

Travel during Off-Peak train times

To enjoy a calmer and often cheaper journey, we recommend choosing Off-Peak services and steering clear of the busy rush-hour periods. While timings differ slightly by operator, it's usually best to avoid travelling between 06:30 AM–09:30 AM and 4:00 PM–7:00 PM on weekdays. On weekends and bank holidays, Off-Peak fares apply all day.
