Northern Rail Flash Ticket Sale (And Other Cheap Travel Deals)

[Andy C 86]

A load of £1 train tickets have been released by Northern to buy online at https://www.northernrailway.co.uk/sale for travel between  6 September 2021 and 22 October 2021. Tickets are for travel on specific trains and the numbers available are limited, once the quotas sell out the offer ends and they are apparently being snapped up quickly.

 

LNER (nearest station Doncaster) also have an online seat sale with some quite affordable advance booking deals for trains to places like Edinburgh, Newcastle and London. Sale ends 9am on 1st September.  Travel is available between 6 September and 15 October 2021. Again limited number of cheap tickets are available and once they've gone they've gone. https://www.lner.co.uk/tickets-savings/savings-rewards/special-offers/travel-savings/summer-seat-sale/

 

Flixbus have launched a new UK coach network with various destinations served from Meadowhall Interchange (such as Newcastle, London, Birmingham and Bristol) plus a couple of coaches a day from Sheffield Interchange to London Victoria. Fares are currently cheap with £3.99 singles (plus booking fee) seemingly widely available. Bookings are online at https://www.flixbus.co.uk/

A shame that all the schools will have gone back

Went on a train last weekend for the first time in 18 months. Not a pleasant experience.  Full of drunken, non mask wearing people,  shouting too loudly and walking up and down the train. The sensible ones were definitely in the minority.

 

I'll probably give it a miss for another 18 months.
