January rail sales: Up to 70% off including €22 Valencia-Málaga deals
08/01/2018
RAIL board RENFE has joined in the post-Christmas sales – tickets are on offer with up to 70% off.
Valid for journeys between now and Monday, February 26, some of the deals include one-way trips between Barcelona and Valencia for €12.20 and between Madrid and Valencia for €21.90.
Some tickets are valid only on certain days of the week or specific types of train, whilst others are universal while stocks last.
High-speed AVE trips, and the long-distance or Larga Distancia 'snail rail' – much slower and less luxurious than the AVE, but considerably more economical and ideal for those who care more about saving money to get from A to B than those in a hurry who will pay for comfort – are both included.
They are marked as a 'Promo' tariff and discounts range from 50% and 60% up to 70%.
Anyone hit by the January blues who wants to go for a cheap weekend away to blow out the cobwebs is in luck – the long trek from Valencia on the east coast to Málaga on the Costa del Sol costs just €22, whilst trips from Madrid to León or Gijón (Castilla y León and Asturias respectively) come in at €19.90 and €22.45; a north-to-south haul between Barcelona and Málaga or the other way around costs €35.45, and from Zaragoza (Aragón) to Logroño (La Rioja) tickets cost just €5.50, the price of a typical one-way from a Zone 6 outer suburban line to a city centre.
Deals can be found on the rail board website, renfe.com/ofertas/RebajasenTren2018.html.
