There are two main approaches.
- Manually: you research potential split points yourself, check individual fares via the National Rail journey planner, and work out whether the combination is cheaper and valid. This is possible but time-consuming, and getting it wrong means booking a split at a station where your train doesn’t stop, which makes your ticket invalid.
- Via a split ticketing app: apps like Choo Choo search for splits on every journey automatically. You enter your origin and destination, and we return the cheapest valid option we can find, checking both the price and whether the train stops where it needs to. If the split isn’t cheaper, we don’t show it. The price you see is the price you pay.
