LNER launches new deal finder for cheapest ticket prices
London North Eastern Railway has launch ‘Deal Finder’ offering customers inspiration, ideas and the cheapest ticket options at the touch of their fingertips.
It is the latest enhancement to the LNER mobile app on the operator's routes including the East Coast line which connects Badenoch and Strathspey with the Central Belt, North-East of England and London on a daily basis.
The new addition to the app allows customers to set their own budget and see a list of destinations available for them with the lowest available fares shown.
Once they have selected the station they wish to travel from, customers can either choose from the range of dates and times offered or add their own preferences.
LNER Deal Finder then does the hard work, browsing through a huge range of journeys to reveal a list of the best value destinations they could discover across the 956-mile LNER route.
Deals cover single or return journeys on LNER services in both First Class and Standard.
Danny Gonzalez, Chief Digital and Innovation Officer at LNER, said: “At LNER we are driven by building the best-in-class digital experience for our customers.
"This fantastic new addition to our award-winning app now gives people an even greater choice and flexibility when it comes to planning their trips and it will also save them time.
"We are proud to be continuing to welcome more customers onboard compared with pre pandemic times and we hope our new Deal Finder on the LNER app will inspire even more people to explore our East Coast route.”
The latest data published by the Office of Rail and Road (ORR) shows that LNER has continued to welcome more customers onboard than compared with pre Covid times, with passenger journeys now at 105 per cent when compared with the same period for 2019.
The LNER App won the App of the Year Award at the 2022 UK Business Tech Awards.
Customers can already sign up for live journey updates, personalised notifications and One-Click Delay Repay via the app.
