Skipton a 'top destination' in Northern Flash Sale

Tuesday, 30 September 2025 00:05

Northern has launched a Flash Sale with three million tickets for journeys across the North of England available from just £2.

The train operator has released three million £2 tickets which are on-sale from 8am on Tuesday 30 September at www.northernrailway.co.uk/sale. A list of routes where tickets will be available can also be found here using Northern's cheap fare finder tool.

The Flash Sale runs for three days and closes Thursday, 2 October. Tickets are valid for travel between Monday, 6 October and Friday, 24 October 2025.

The top destinations with the most tickets available in Northern's Flash Sale are:

Manchester, Leeds, Bolton, Preston, Manchester Airport, Blackpool North, Shipley, Rochdale, Stockport, Bradford, Sheffield, Wigan Wallgate, Hebden Bridge, Blackburn, Meadowhall, Liverpool Lime Street, Skipton, Wilmslow, Doncaster, Ilkley, Hull and Wakefield Westgate.

Alex Hornby, commercial and customer director at Northern, said:

"With three million tickets up for grabs, there’s something for everyone in Northern's Flash Sale. For our existing customers, it's the perfect opportunity to visit somewhere new, and hopefully we can encourage those who don't currently use the train to give it a try.

"We believe the Flash Sale will inspire everyone to explore everything our fantastic region has to offer, from bustling cities to countryside and stunning coastlines.

"Customers will need to book early to avoid disappointment - once they're gone, they're gone!"

Tickets will be available to buy on Northern's app, online, and at ticket offices and on ticket machines at stations managed by Northern.
