    Brilliant! Thanks very much, I've just booked a family day out to london, 4 adults -£40 return.
    I could have booked it for £8, but know my lot won't get up early enough to catch a very early bus - which would just mean loads of stress for me -:(

    Whilst I fully support Grandads geographical observation, I must be forced to point out that "available throughout the UK/GB" is a bit of an overstatement...

    So... Agreed. They give very few options for destinations - ie. 1! I tried from several start locations (stretched to 50 mile radius of my Start!) and was only offered London from the drop down menu! Great for city slickers and students I would imagine, but not so good for the rest of us...
    Unless of course i've done something really silly and i'm moaning for no good reason :D


    Hillarious that the two messages previous to mine are positive!!! Heehee...

    Just tried London to Aberdeen. Clicked on the £1 fare. Tried for 3 people and it says funfare £66. Changed it to 2 people and now says £2. Strange :confused:
    Just skimmed the small print but cant see anything about booking for more than 2 people !

    It would seem that National Express coaches mainly go to and from London. If you want to go somewhere else, better travel another way!

    Will only let me go to London from my bus station a bit useless when wanting to go in the opposite direction to Edinburgh

    You can apparently get on and off at stops in between the start & end of your ticket. So mayrouge, for example, could get a £1 ticket from London to Edinburgh, but get on at their usual stop.
    It's worth looking up anyway.
