All you need to do is download the CrossCountry app, sign-in to your account, and view tickets in the ‘My Tickets’ section.
How do I use e-Tickets at the station?
If you’re travelling from a station with a gate, simply tap the barcode on your e-Ticket onto the barcode reader and the barrier will open for you. If a barcode reader is not available then a member of staff will be able to assist you. On-board, simply show the barcode to a member of the train crew when requested.
