How to book cheap train tickets from Reading to Farringdon
Season tickets for frequent travellers
If you travel between Reading and Farringdon 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 Reading to Farringdon when booked at least 1 week in advance. Savings exclude Anytime fares, and are subject to route availability.
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 Reading to Farringdon more affordable for friends, family, or work groups.
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.
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
Flexi Season tickets
Flexi Season tickets suit travellers who commute a few days a week, offering 8 days of unlimited travel in a 28-day period—which often works out cheaper than buying tickets on an individual daily basis
