How to book cheap train tickets from Skipton to Edinburgh
Group travel deals
If your party consists of 3 to 9 travelers, 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 Skipton to Edinburgh more affordable for friends, family, or work groups.
Using a Railcard for 1/3 off
Explore a range of Railcards that typically offer 1/3 off most train tickets, including the 16-25, 26-30, Family & Friends, Two Together, Network and Senior Railcards, as well as the 16-17 Saver, which offers 50% off. They’re easy to purchase and store digitally in your Trip.com app, meaning you're only ever a tap away from great savings.
Travel during Off-Peak train times
For a quieter, better-value trip, try to travel during Off-Peak hours rather than the busiest weekday periods. Although exact times can vary between train companies, the general rule is to avoid the 6:30 AM–09:30 AM and 4:00 PM–7:00 PM windows. At weekends and on bank holidays, Off-Peak pricing typically applies throughout the entire day.
Book in advance
Booking Advance tickets at least 1 week before departure can reduce your fare by up to 61% on routes from Skipton to Edinburgh. Advance fares are usually released 12 weeks prior to travel and exclude Anytime fares, with savings depending on route availability.
