Avanti delay

5.2K Posts

Hello all
i recently bought a return ticket, paying for the flexibility of two train companies.
on my return journey, the two fast avanti trains were cancelled which meant I had to catch the slower, non-avanti train and set off earlier than anticipated to get back on time. It effectively took out my options.
can I claim for anything from avanti?

How can avanti be paid if their trains were cancelled - interesting scenario. Will let you know what happens, I've nothing to lose by fighting. I actually had to leave my lunch early to get the slower train so that I could make my connection. Thanks both
I tried to argue that none of their trains ran so they took away my flexibility to use them.
had I just bought an avanti ticket instead of a flexible I would have probably got a full refund. But because I paid for being able to use a different train company, they didn't refund me.
