Title: fare query Post by: clevedonian on August 04, 2009, 17:38:11 hi guys, why can i buy a first class day return Yatton to BRIstol temple meads but cannot buy a weekly/monthly season ticket?
Any ideas? Title: Re: fare query Post by: devon_metro on August 04, 2009, 17:45:25 Probably because at ^10.40 its quite a cheap First Class ticket, and a season ticket would probably not be much cheaper than buying 7 @ ^72.80, considering the price in standard. 7DS being ^29.30

Title: Re: fare query Post by: Zoe on August 05, 2009, 00:04:57 If TOCs continue to push up the cost of long distance Anytime Returns at the current rate some will become more expensive than a season ticket. Will some long distance seasons be abolished as a result of this?

Will some long distance seasons be abolished as a result of this? Are season tickets protected fares or is that only around London.
