LONDON, February 3, 2011 - Redspottedhanky.com, the online travel retailer, has scrapped its booking
fee to become the cheapest place to buy train tickets online. This is an
industry first and customers can now receive the best value with no
unexpected costs.

With rail now the preferred mode of transport used for over 3.6m* trips
each day, business and leisure travellers can save up to 51% on the cost of
train tickets (www.redspottedhanky.com/) using redspottedhanky.com.**

James Bain, director at redspottedhanky.com, says, "With the recent rises
in rail fares, train travellers don't need or want to be paying more for
their tickets. Now, travellers can access the best available fares without
the added burden of debit card fees, booking fees, delivery or vending
machine charges."

Redspottedhanky.com, unlike other online travel retailers, offers its
customers a loyalty programme (www.redspottedhanky.com/loyalty/). This
innovative scheme - the first and only rewards scheme available for train
travel - allows travellers to earn points for redemption against future rail
travel.

Bain added: "We are experiencing an exciting time in the train travel
industry. It is once again becoming the dominant form of transport for
business and leisure travel, and customers deserve a booking website that
offers value and rewards loyalty.

"At redspottedhanky.com, we know that our customers need to be assured
they've got the best price for a ticket. That's why we also provide a 'price
promise'. If customers have bought a train ticket from redspottedhanky.com,
but find the same fare at a cheaper price from another website on the same
day, the difference in the fares will be refunded as loyalty points."

To mark the end of its booking fares, redspottedhanky.com has also
launched a TV campaign to spread the word -
