Discount Portsmouth - Ilford train tickets

The best way to pay less on your Portsmouth Ilford train ticket must be to have a railcard. While regional railcards exist in some areas, National railcards enable you to make savings on most rail fares across the United Kingdom. Everyone is eligible to at least one of the railcard, even non-UK residents. National railcards available: 16-25 discount card, Senior railcard, Two together discount card, Family and Friends railcard and Disabled persons discount card.

• When buying a railcard, you aim to break even after several trips. But is it really profitable when taking the train from Portsmouth to Ilford? Use your calculator, taking into account:

  A = the railcard cost (i.e.: £30)

  B = average price cut with the railcard (i.e.: 34%)

  C = average cost for a Portsmouth Ilford ticket (i.e.: £50.00)(1)

  The first step is to divide A by B: this will show you the budget from which the card will be efficient. You can now divide that number by C. It will give you the approximate number of trips needed across the year to start saving money.

  In our example, A/B = £30/34% = £88.00. Then, 88/£50.00 = 1.76. Your railcard will be profitable if you're doing around 2 trips from Portsmouth to Ilford (one way journey).

• The cost to get a Disabled persons railcard is £20 while it will cost you £30 to buy a 16-25, Two together, Family and Friends or the Senior railcard. All of them enable you to get a third off most rail fares for a complete year.
