Save money on buying a train ticket

How to save on travel expenses by buying train tickets?

The season of summer holidays, interesting entertainment and travel is approaching, which means that now you need to take care of purchasing train tickets. The fact is that the cost of tickets will increase significantly in the warm season.

If you book tickets one to two months before the trip, you will be given a discount. Of course, the discount is not given on all routes, but on many. For example, you can leave the capital for Brest, Kaliningrad, Vilnius and Voronezh profitably by purchasing a ticket in advance. The discount applies to the purchase of tickets for compartment carriages, as well as for deluxe and SV carriages. If you go on a trip on a working day, the fare will be cheaper than on weekends, when there are much more people who want to travel.

If tickets don't sell well, then railroad employees sometimes offer them for very little money, so long as the cars are not empty. If you take care of purchasing a ticket in advance, then the chances of saving will increase. Sometimes, even on the day the train leaves, you can “catch” a profitable option if the demand for tickets is very low. Discount can range from 10 to 35 percent. Most often, a flexible system of discounts is practiced in trains that run from the capital to Belgorod, Anapa, Murmansk and Adler. You can track profitable routes on the official website of the railway.

Teach that the discount does not apply to all places, but only to those that are less convenient. If this is not important for you, then buy a ticket for the top shelf in a reserved seat car. Let you give up comfort, but save money. It is advantageous to choose a route when the train leaves the station very early, or early arrival at the point of departure. If it is convenient for you to get to the station, then feel free to send on an early trip. The difference in the price of tickets for a train departing from the platform at 4-5 o'clock in the morning and a train leaving, for example, at 8 o'clock, will be 20-15 percent.

For each trip on the train, you will receive bonus points. When buying a ticket in subsequent times, ask the cashier to write off bonuses. This will make it possible to buy a ticket cheaper. Before you start accumulating points, you must register on the official website of Russian Railways.

Preparing for the trip

What to take with you on the train?

You have a long train ride coming up soon and you don't know what to bring with you? This article will help solve this seemingly simple question.

Passport, tickets and money top the list of things that you need to remember and keep with you at all times. For the convenience of storing such things, you can purchase a small bag. The main thing is not to let her out of sight or put her in a safe place.
Cloth. Comfort is extremely important on the train, so prepare for yourself change of clothes. It can be too hot in the car, sports shorts and a light T-shirt will suit any passenger. If the trip takes place in the cold season, then a knitted warm sweater will not be superfluous.

Food. Some people prefer to eat in the restaurant car, buy different pastries and cheap drinks. Other passengers prepare several meals in advance or buy groceries in stores before the trip. You should not arrange a feast and make a lot of salads, hot dishes and desserts. Think about what food will not spoil during your voyage.

Make sure you have enough water. It is better not to take sodas and juices on the road, as their use will only cause thirst. For a snack, fresh fruits and a variety of berries, nuts or light cookies are suitable.

If your carriage is overcrowded, the conductor may not have enough cutlery. You better take your little one crockery set, as well as a mug made of thick plastic, which will not allow it to break during movement.

Personal care products. Put a toothbrush, toothpaste, comb and soap in your personal cosmetic bag. Grab a face or hand cream. Do not forget to bring wet wipes and a small towel, as standard linen on trains is not always of high quality and tidy.
Put all the necessary medicines in a separate small bag. It is worth taking care of your health and the occurrence of unforeseen situations. You may need pills for pain in the head and stomach, band-aids, allergy medications, sedatives, and sleeping pills.
If you find it difficult to fall asleep to extraneous sounds, get earplugs and a special sleep mask that will protect you from the light of night lamps in the car. Now a loud company in a neighboring compartment will not create inconvenience.
Entertainment. In order not to get bored on the road, buy a book, a magazine with a crossword puzzle or playing cards. But the best salvation from longing is the presence of a good interlocutor.

Get ready for a trip in advance, pack according to a pre-compiled list.

Comfortable trip and good fellow travelers!
