Whatever route I pick, it's coming up with:

"The Journey details, dates or times entered aren’t valid for this promotion"

I've been trying various Fri/Sat/Sun combinations in January on COV-EUS-COV which is usually wide open for Traveller.

Are any other Traveller members getting this?

To update my own question, the Traveller site seems to have been fixed some time in the past couple of days.

Have you noticed that Traveller availability has, once again, changed? Some very quiet Fri/Mon trains have gone and some very busy Fri/Mon trains have been added.

Thanks to All Line Rover for alerting me that, in addition to the cuts he mentioned above in December, Virgin have now removed all Friday availability from all routes between 3pm and 7pm.

This is utter madness. After Coventry, the Euston-bound trains run at about 10% loading in first class on a Friday evening.

We regularly use Traveller for a weekend break in London and the 17:31 or 17:51 will get you into London in time for a show. Why on earth would Virgin want to upset its Traveller members by blocking these near empty services?
