How to book cheap train tickets from Reading to Princes Risborough

Travel during Off-Peak train times
We'd strongly suggest avoiding rush hour crowds by travelling on Off-Peak services, often leading to a cheaper and more peaceful journey. Exact timings vary between providers, but in general, skip travelling between 06:30 AM–09:30 AM and 4:00 PM–7:00 PM on weekdays. Off-Peak rates are available all day on weekends and bank holidays.

Split Tickets discount
It may sound odd, but splitting your journey into smaller segments by purchasing separate, cheaper tickets can often lead to significant savings, all while you remain in the same seat for the entire trip. The best part? Trip.com handles these splits for you, meaning you don't have to do any painstaking planning.

Using a Railcard for 1/3 off
Save money on your journeys by choosing from a variety of Railcards, most of which give you 1/3 off standard fares. Options include the 16-25, 26-30, Family & Friends, Two Together, Network and Senior Railcards, plus the 16-17 Saver which offers 50% off. You can buy and store them digitally in your Trip.com app, so big savings are always just a tap away.

Season tickets for frequent travellers
If you travel between Reading and Princes Risborough on a weekly, monthly, or annual basis, we'd highly recommend a season ticket, which provides unlimited travel between the 2 stations (during specific times) for a set price. Not only will you receive significant savings, but you'll also remove the stress of purchasing individual tickets.
Which train ticket types are available for this route?

Advance train tickets
Available up to 12 weeks before the journey, these are generally the most cost-effective option for cost-conscious travellers

Anytime tickets
With no time restrictions, Anytime tickets allow travel throughout the entire day. They're a great option if you require maximum flexibility or aren't sure exactly when you'll be travelling.

First Class tickets
First Class tickets give you a more comfortable ride, with larger seats, extra legroom, and access to premium amenities such as refreshments or quieter carriages on many routes

Flexi Season tickets
Flexi Season tickets suit travellers who commute a few days a week, offering 8 days of unlimited travel in a 28-day period—which often works out cheaper than buying tickets on an individual daily basis
