  • Stupid as I am, I am endeavouring to travel to Windermere on Avanti West Coast next week.

    Having patiently waited for their reduced timetables to be published and bookable, I bought a ticket and used their online form to try and reserve a bike space.

    Got this back in an email:

    Thank you for contacting Avanti West Coast to request a bike reservation on one of our services.

    Due to strike disruption, reduced timetables and suspending ticket sales, we are unable to make bike reservations until 11/09/2022, as these will most likely not be honoured. I apologise for the inconvenience caused. Please speak to our station or onboard teams for further assistance on your day of travel.

    WTF does that mean?

  • To me that reads as, we don't actually know how bad the strike impacts will be so we can't guarantee that we can take your bike.

    I doubt you'd get any better clarity from that speaking to anyone. Odds are that you would be fine unless you're going at a peak time.
