How quickly do the Night Riviera all inclusive sleeper tickets generally run out?

It depends on the time of year and day of the week, but at this time of year I would book very quickly if you intend to use it!

Last Friday night, had my first ride on the Night Riviera, travelling all the way from London Paddington to Penzance. I got an all-in £74 advance purchase fare for a single berth. My pal had the adjacent cabin and we had a novel connecting doorway. I was impressed with the service. I got a reasonable nights' sleep, the berth was comfortable and train arrived in Penzance only a few mins late. Recommended !

I'd actually booked the NR service specifically to travel onto the Isles of Scilly from Penzance, on the helicopter. The helicopter had technical problems and our a day trip to the islands was cancelled :(

Shame about the helicopter. No replacement bus or taxi to your destination? ;):p:lol:

He, he. Soon after we arrived at Penzance, we got a call from the heliport. Flights were resuming later in the day. They had a back log of passengers. And they cancelled our day return tickets. Nothing we could do. We'll get our money back.

Will try again next year.
