How to book cheap train tickets from Edinburgh (Waverley) to London Kings Cross
Season Tickets for frequent travel
Are you frequently traveling between Edinburgh (Waverley) and London Kings Cross on a weekly, monthly, or annual basis? Season Tickets provide unlimited travel during specific times, allowing you to freely hop on and off trains between two stations without worrying about individual ticket bookings, and offering significant savings in the process.
Network Railcard for South East England
For only a small annual fee, you can save 1/3 on most fares in South East England, including routes in and out of London, with the Network Railcard. Covering both standard and off-peak tickets, this railcard is particularly beneficial for those who travel regularly within this region.
Traveling in off-peak train times
Taking advantage of Off-Peak train tickets is another effective way to save on your train journey from Edinburgh (Waverley) to London Kings Cross. These tickets are generally cheaper and can be used during quieter periods, typically outside of morning (6:30 AM–9:30 AM) and evening (4:00 PM–7:00 PM) rush hours on weekdays.
Get 1/3 off with a Railcard
You can choose a Railcard to help you save up to 1/3 on fares from Edinburgh (Waverley) to London Kings Cross for various reasons, such as your age (including the 16–25 Railcard or Senior Railcard) or options geared towards group travel (Family & Friends Railcard and Two Together Railcard).

Split tickets to save an average extra 30%
Splitting tickets is a perfectly legal practice that involves purchasing separate, cheaper tickets for different segments of your journey on the same train instead of a single ticket for the entire trip. For example, if you are travelling from Edinburgh (Waverley) to London Kings Cross, you might discover that buying a ticket from A to C, and then another ticket from C to B, is more economical than a direct ticket.
Book in advance to save an average of 61%

By planning your trip from Edinburgh (Waverley) to London Kings Cross ahead of time and booking your tickets early, you can potentially save up to 61% on your travel expenses.

If you are traveling in a group, be sure to check out group travel discounts.
