    Non-acceptance of PlusBus tickets

    Why all the aggravation aimed at the bus driver? They are only trying to do their job and no one is perfect. Think about what they have to put up with whilst doing their job, people trying not to pay or paying the incorrect fare, misbehaving teenaged youths, drunks, abusive passengers and don't...

    Avanti Standard Premium

    Standard Premium has always seemed a bit expensive on a NorthWest to Scotland ticket, especially when the ticket costs less than £10 (with railcard) and there is plenty of space available in Standard. I used to travel Advanced 1st, but don't do any more.
