The Family Return ticket is the only dedicated family fare for east coast main line journeys, helping money-savvy families save an average of 54 per cent per journey.  As well as guaranteed seat reservations, faster journey times (with no unscheduled loo stops) and free Wi-Fi, families can also preorder delicious food and snacks from the Foodbar to keep hunger at bay.

Family fares are available on advance standard class return tickets for up to six people, including up to 2 adults and up to 4 children, for journeys between Edinburgh and London for £159

Suzanne Donnelly, Commercial Director at LNER, said: “We know how challenging family trips can be when there are traffic jams and chaos on the roads – travelling by train is a comfortable and stress-free way to get to where you’re going. We’re delighted to be the first operator on the east coast route to offer families a dedicated and money-saving ticket that makes it more affordable for them to enjoy some of the fantastic destinations, attractions and events on our network over half term and all year round.”
