Caledonian Sleeper 'Business' Ticket

[AgentSmith]

Hello,

Does the Caledonian Sleeper still sell business tickets with fare code SB0-SB9? i.e. a standard class ticket that offers a solo room with shower?

Looking to travel EUS --> GLC with a room & shower - the SB0 (etc) tickets seem to offer exactly that. However, no booking agent / corporate seller seems to be able to sell this ticket.

We used to use this in my part of the civil service. They're not open to Joe Public AFAIK and only available through corporate bookers who have a contract with a large business.

I've got a corporate booker, but they can't find it to be able to book. They've also been calling round various retailers - no joy.

This fare was closed off and was only sold - AFAIK - to very large organisations which could produce volume sales to justify the large discount. Virgin had a similar "free upgrade" ticket which was flexible on the Anglo Scot route and a crazy good deal.

If you work for a small or medium sized organisation I would imagine your corporate booker cannot book this fare. You can't just shop around for them.
