Andy Burnham questions ability of Avanti to put on enough train services to London for those wishing to pay respects to the Queen
Greater Manchester Mayor Andy Burnham has questioned whether Avanti West Coast is equipped to deliver services to people wishing to pay their respects to the Queen. His latest attack comes less than two weeks after he said the company was in "the last chance saloon".
The letter adds: "One of the most common concerns being raised is the timely release of seats for people to book. It is extremely disappointing that, this morning, people wishing to travel to London are still unable to book tickets for Saturday 17 September and that tickets for other days around Her Majesty’s funeral have only been released at very short notice. We ask that you urgently make these tickets available for purchase.
The Mayor also asks that given the extra capacity that is needed to cope with demand the company should implement an immediate blanket declassification of the first-class carriages on their trains for the mourning period and make those seats available at standard prices on the booking system. "These defects are disappointing at any time but are unacceptable when so many people require urgent travel.
