The lack of train networks, and poor perception of the greyhound bus network by consumers means I guess most travellers will have to use airlines. @ Lee I have bought my coach ticket (all trains fully booked with it being the bank holiday) so I am just waiting for the tickets to come on sale for non season ticket holders. Hopefully I’ll be queuing up midnight on Wednesday for a ticket for the nephew and myself. What a game. I really hope we win the play-offs and collect our trophy from the inept FA. @ Dwayne

Are you going? @MARY Mc, I agree with you, it does seem harsh that in this day and age of electronic ticketing that airlines can charge exorbitent fees even for 1 incorrect initial or name, however those are the rules. I take it you didn't book through a Travel Agent? We always ask our clients for their name as it appears in their passport and spell it out Phonetically to them, stating A for Alpha, Nfor November etc. That way there should be no problems.
