How to book cheap train tickets from London to Oxford

Season Tickets for frequent travel

For frequent travelers between London and Oxford, consider a Season Ticket, providing unlimited travel between specified stations for different durations, such as weekly, monthly, annual, or flexi. Alongside substantial savings, enjoy the convenience of not having to buy a ticket for each journey.

Network Railcard for South East England

By purchasing a Network Railcard for only £30 per year, unlock incredible savings of up to 1/3 on every ticket for your travels within London and the South East. With this Railcard in hand, you can enjoy reduced costs on various ticket types, including Standard or Super Off-Peak Tickets.

Traveling in off-peak train times

Taking advantage of Off-Peak train tickets is another effective way to save on your train journey from London to Oxford. 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

With a Railcard, you can save up to 1/3 on most rail fares. There are different types of Railcards available, such as the 16–25 Railcard, the Family & Friends Railcard, and the Senior Railcard, each catering to specific groups of travelers. You can discover more about Railcards here.

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 London to Oxford, 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%

Advance Tickets are typically released up to 12 weeks before the travel date and can offer significant savings compared to tickets purchased closer to departure. By planning your trip from London to Oxford ahead of time and booking your tickets early, you can potentially save up to 61% on your travel expenses.

Travel in a group to save 1/3

If you are traveling in a group, be sure to check out group travel discounts. Many train companies offer a ⅓ off standard fares for groups of three to nine people, making traveling from London to Oxford more affordable for families, friends, or colleagues planning a trip together.
