    I haven't travelled on the Jacobite, although I have done the route with RTC before. What I did see looking at next years service, is that a single passenger can't book a seat in first class.

    This from the fare prices page: " There is a minimum booking of two passengers in first class. Single passengers can travel in standard class."

    Has this applied before?

    No I do not currently volunteer
    I don't remember seeing it before, but it's been a while since I last looked at their website. It's getting awfully expensive now isn't it? £105 for First Class is just £10 less than Standard on an RTC full-day tour like the CME. Plus there is no catering included (other than a single hot drink in each direction), so after the £105 you still need to pay another £28 if you want a scone with jam in a box. Plus there is a £3.75 booking fee as well.

    Yes I am an active volunteer
    I seem to remember comments along the lines of "They could just increase the fares to pay for..........." Time will tell of course.
