Advance ticket question
Mishomeister
Posts: 1,081 Forumite
I need to buy a ticket to travel to Leicester from Basildon on the 7th February. ObviouslyAdvance tickets are the cheapest. However due to the upcoming Tube strikes I don't want to commit myself to a particualar route as yet as depenging on if the strikes will go ahead or not I will be chosing a longer route where I can avoid the tube.
I am however concious that the advance tickets will not be available by the time it will be clear if the strikes will or will not go ahead.
So I was wondering if anyone her knew how long before the day of the journey the advance tickets are withdrawn from sale?

It appears that they are not withdrawn from sale, but they may all sell out.

Sam Vimes' Boots Theory of Socioeconomic Unfairness:
People are rich because they spend less money. A poor man buys $10 boots that last a season or two before he's walking in wet shoes and has to buy another pair. A rich man buys $50 boots that are made better and give him 10 years of dry feet. The poor man has spent $100 over those 10 years and still has wet feet.

Advance tickets for that journey are still available for £45.0
