How to book cheap train tickets from Thurso to Aberdeen
Traveling in off-peak train times

If your schedule allows for flexibility, choosing off-peak times for your trip from Thurso to Aberdeen can result in significant cost savings.
Get 1/3 off with a Railcard

Split tickets to save an average extra 30%
Splitting tickets involves buying separate, cheaper tickets for different parts of your journey on the same train instead of just one ticket for the entire trip. For instance, if you're traveling from Thurso to Aberdeen, you might find that purchasing a ticket from A to C, then C to B costs less than a direct ticket. This method is perfectly legal and often doesn't require leaving your seat.
