Virgin Trains extends flexible Friday travel into autumn
Customers travelling on a Friday will see afternoon peak restrictions from London Euston removed until October 26th, eight weeks after the summer promotion was initially due to finish.
Since July, our summer offer has enabled thousands of people to cut the cost of a spontaneous weekend getaway by more than £100, with visitors travelling to explore our great cities, including Manchester, Birmingham and Glasgow.
While the cheapest tickets are always available in advance, our promotion enables people who decide to travel on the spur of the moment to secure a cheaper off-peak ticket any time after 9.30am on a Friday, instead of waiting until the normal start of the off-peak period at 7pm. For a customer turning up at Euston Station at 4pm and travelling on the next train to Manchester, this sees the cost of a walk-up fare drop by £125.55.
