Why can't I book my tickets yet?


We’re still finalising our timetable for future travel dates, so some tickets aren’t on sale yet. Here you can create a ticket alert for the dates you want to travel and we'll let you know when the cheapest Advance tickets are available to buy.

 

Sign in or create an account to set up your alert and we’ll send you an email when your chosen dates are available to book:

  • Create a ticket alert for your journey 
  • Create a regular alert for the same journey you make each week 
  • You can cancel or remove your alerts in your Account area at any time.

If you’re not already registered with LNER you’ll need to create an account to manage your Ticket Alerts below.

There may be some occasions where other train operators Advance tickets are available only on their own websites.

For travel agents and larger groups

Please be aware that tickets for travel agents and groups of 10+ are released closer to the day of travel. This ticket alert is for general ticket sales only. Tickets are currently open until Friday 19 July 2024.

What to know about tickets for future travel

When will your Advance tickets be on sale?

Why aren't our tickets on sale for your dates yet?

We try to put our advance tickets on sale as far in advance as possible to help you plan your travel and make sure you can take advantage of cheaper Advance tickets.

Sometimes, we have to hold some dates back if there is engineering planned that could impact the timetable to prevent us from selling tickets for trains that might not run.

Other websites may provide Off-Peak or Open tickets but these are typically more expensive. We recommend that you create a Ticket Alert to find out when our Advance tickets are on sale. Or you can find out when are tickets will be coming on sale on our Tickets for Future travel page.

Ticket types not available on the LNER website or app may be available via other online retailers or at ticket offices, ticket vending machines or via travel agents or telesales services.

Available ticket type summary

Please note: On LNER web and App, we are only currently able to retail LNER Advance products for travel in the future, from 08/03/2024, due to unconfirmed timetables and complexities in being able to service any changes to travel plans. Other products may be available for travel from this date via other retailers.
