How to book cheap train tickets from Manchester to Ely
Season tickets for frequent travellers
If you travel between Manchester and Ely 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.
Book in advance
Advance tickets, usually released up to 12 weeks before travel, can save you up to 61% on journeys from Manchester to Ely when booked at least 1 week in advance. Savings exclude Anytime fares, and are subject to route availability.
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.
Group travel deals
If your party consists of 3 to 9 travellers, 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 Manchester to Ely more affordable for friends, family, or work groups.
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
