Cheap train tickets from London to Edinburgh

When planning your trip from London to Edinburgh there are plenty of ways to save, we’ve highlighted a few below.

The easiest way to save is to book directly through the Avanti West Coast website or app. We don’t charge any fees so you can instantly save a few extra pounds.

If possible you should always try to book in advance. This allows you to book the train that suits you best including off-peak trains that are quite a bit cheaper than travelling during rush hour. You can set up a ticket alert and we’ll email you when the tickets become available, to make sure you don’t miss out.

If you have a railcard, remember to use it. You can save up to a third on your travel, more for some age groups. If you’re frequent traveller we would recommend signing up for one as you could potentially save hundreds.

First Class service

After a long journey, it’s normal to not feel totally fresh, but upgrading to a First Class ticket will ensure you’re ready for the day and night ahead. It begins before you get on the train with access to our First Class lounge at London Euston, here you can relax with a complimentary drink before embarking onto the First Class carriage where you’ll have a wider seat, extra legroom and a guaranteed table for you to carry on with work or watch a movie on Avanti Media.
