How to book cheap train tickets from Hackney to Cambridge

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.

Season tickets for frequent travellers
Regular commuters travelling between Hackney and Cambridge - whether weekly, monthly, or annually - can benefit greatly from season tickets. Season tickets allow unlimited travel between both stations within specific time periods, offering substantial savings and eliminating the need to purchase individual tickets for every trip.

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.

Using a Railcard for 1/3 off
Save money on your journeys by choosing from a variety of Railcards, most of which give you 1/3 off standard fares. Options include the 16-25, 26-30, Family & Friends, Two Together, Network and Senior Railcards, plus the 16-17 Saver which offers 50% off. You can buy and store them digitally in your Trip.com app, so big savings are always just a tap away.
