Traveling during off-peak hours

This method is legal and can often result in cheaper fares. For example, if you are travelling from A to B, you might discover that buying a ticket from A to C, and then another ticket from C to B, is more economical than purchasing a direct ticket.

These discounts can save you up to 1/3 on off-peak fares, making your journey from Cardiff to Liverpool Lime Street more affordable.
