With the right knowledge and by using available discounts and travel options, saving money with Trip.com can become effortless. Here are a few valuable tips to help you save money on your train travel.

Split Tickets to save an average extra 30%

Splitting your tickets involves purchasing separate tickets for different segments of your journey instead of a single ticket for the entire trip. 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.
