I wonder what the passenger numbers are for it? It's sort of crying out for a coach transfer to Lancaster, which would surely be a shorter journey time? FFS don't encourage them!

woolley Posted Friday at 01:39 PM Share Posted Friday at 01:39 PM 6 minutes ago, Happier diner said: No. It's only free if they cancel. £10 Yes. I've found that if you change more than once you don't get charged again. Anyone else had this experience? I thought perhaps the system has a seizure if asked to charge it more than once.

I've asked them to cancel as we're going tomorrow and going to fly back instead. Even if they say no as it's not cancelled, it's going to end up cancelled anyway so they'll refund then.

Quite a significant system due, the experts will probably name it if they haven't already. Might stay offshore of the island of Ireland but should bring some pretty strong impacts regardless. Id not want to be on a boat on the Irish sea on Sunday anyway Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
