It used to cost £90 2nd class (standing room only) and £125 first class (guaranteed seat) therefore I opted for first class.
The fare has increased to £112 2nd class and £190 first class with less seats sometimes no seat in first and no seat in second. Therefore it is back to using a car"A people that elect corrupt politicians, imposters, thieves and traitors are not victims, but accomplices," George OrwellComment

If I am working in Edinburgh (50% of my work) I would travel first class which costs 500 something a month. Realistically if they push the cost up another 6% which they will probably do then I might consider standard.
Never bother with first class flying, a few valium and a few beers and I could be in an iron maiden and not care.Comment

Same seats, same flight, difference was I'm now within 21 days to fly. Absolute ******* joke.What happens in General, stays in General.You know what they say about assumptions!Comment
