How to book cheap train tickets from Atherton to Blackpool
Using a Railcard for 1/3 off
Explore a range of Railcards that typically offer 1/3 off most train tickets, including the 16-25, 26-30, Family & Friends, Two Together, Network and Senior Railcards, as well as the 16-17 Saver, which offers 50% off. They’re easy to purchase and store digitally in your Trip.com app, meaning you're only ever a tap away from great savings.
Group travel deals
Travelling with a group of 3 to 9 people? Most train companies offer group discounts, allowing you to save up to 1/3 on standard fares. This makes journeys from Atherton to Blackpool more budget-friendly for families, friends, or colleagues travelling together.
Split Tickets discount
It might seem unusual, but buying several cheaper tickets for different sections of your journey can result in substantial savings - and you won't need to move seats at all. Even better, Trip.com automatically finds and arranges these split tickets for you, so there's no complicated planning required.
Travel during Off-Peak train times
We'd strongly suggest avoiding rush hour crowds by travelling on Off-Peak services, often leading to a cheaper and more peaceful journey. Exact timings vary between providers, but in general, skip travelling between 06:30 AM–09:30 AM and 4:00 PM–7:00 PM on weekdays. Off-Peak rates are available all day on weekends and bank holidays.
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
First Class tickets
First Class tickets give you a more comfortable ride, with larger seats, extra legroom, and access to premium amenities such as refreshments or quieter carriages on many routes
Anytime tickets
With no time restrictions, Anytime tickets allow travel throughout the entire day. They're a great option if you require maximum flexibility or aren't sure exactly when you'll be travelling.
