Discount Exeter - Nottingham train tickets

The most efficient way to spend less on your Exeter Nottingham train ticket may be to get a railcard. While regional railcards can be obtained in some areas, National railcards enable you to save money on most rail fares across the country. Everyone is eligible to at least 1 of the railcard, even non-UK citizens. National railcards available: 16-25 railcard, Senior discount card, Two together railcard, Family and Friends discount card and Disabled persons railcard.

To understand the savings that you can make with a railcard, you need to evaluate how many trips you need to make earnings. You will see that commonly only a few trips are needed.

For your calculation, you must include the railcard cost, for instance £30, the discount on each trip (i.e.: 34%) and the cost of your ticket. The average cost of a Exeter Nottingham ticket is £106.23 (1).

Divide the railcard cost by the saving: £30/34%= £88. Now divide £88 by £106.23: £88/£106.23 = 0.83. It will take you on average 1 trips from Nottingham to Exeter (one way journey) with your railcard to start saving money.

All railcards cost £30 except the Disabled persons railcard that costs £20. Railcards enable you to get 34% off most adult fares, hence you will save 1/3 on most train tickets.
