18:26 Leeds to Manchester

[185143]

I am planning to travel on this train tomorrow. I have found a child single at £9.35. Is it worth paying the £12.50 first class ticket? I'll be using a £7.70 RTV if that affects anyone's judgement.

 

[calc7]

Yes - I wouldn't even think twice about that up-trade.

 

[185143]

Am I likely to be offered anything?

 

[bb21]

I would imagine you would get a tea/coffee/water, plus one round of snacks.

 

[185143]

So well worth the £3.15 then!

 

[bb21]

Yes, if the trolley guy is onboard.

There is no guarantee however remember.

I only think it's worth it if you are unlikely to get a seat in Standard, but are likely to in First

As I discovered to my shock recently when boarding the 0655 Leeds to Manchester on a Monday morning, First Class only had a couple of seats left!
Very pleasant though, comfy, drinks and snacks provided... Worth the upgrade.
