    Proposal to price by distance travelled (rather than market based pricing)

Are you going to charge more if you take a longer route? At the moment you can go direct from York to Birmingham via Leeds or Doncaster. Should...

    I've just been booking on eastcoast.co.uk and was disappointed to see they've introduced a postage charge of £1. Are they allowed to do this? It's rather a disappointment from my favourite booking site.
