| The Long Weekender will be initially trialled on routes from London Paddington to the wider Bristol area and South Wales, and GWR says that they offer savings of more than 60% compared to peak Anytime return fares. GWR added that if the trial of the Long Weekender proves successful, it will be extended to other parts of the network.Worth noting that a trip this Sat/Sun from London to Bristol Temple Meads came in at £77.40, which is less than the £79 the Long Weekender would have cost and with the option to return on the Sunday. So it doesn’t seem that good a deal until you look at peak fares on the Friday and Monday. The main advantage of the Long Weekender is that it can be used during the rush-hour mornings, and that can save a considerable amount of money on a journey if you have to travel early, or at least open up the option of travelling earlier if you had expected to wait until off-peak times start. -- ???????? | |||
