It wasn’t second class that was the nightmare, it was the behaviour of people when we all became stuck in the corridor. I almost always travel second class, I’m quite happy there 😃

I want to again!

Thanks 🙏

Thanks 🙏

Thanks 🙏

Thanks 👍

Certainly are free - the car parking isn't free but if you're just riding from Terminal 5 to the car park and back for fun...it's free. Definitely worth it if you're in T5 and have a spare 20 minutes

The Lookout and Horizon22 did need booking but were free. The others you just turn up. Post Office building asked for ID I think but no booking. Canary Wharf was just upstairs and free to visit, and Garden at 120 had a queue but no booking. Might need to check open hours though for all

Yes someone else pointed this out. And we are back in Italy this summer and I noticed Trenitalia is cheaper than Italo, so we will travel with them!

It really was!

Hi - so we travelled on a 5-day interrail pass which cost £283. My son was 11 so went for free (bargain!) and I see this now costs €318 for 5 days. We then paid £57 supplement for Eurostar tickets to Paris and I think the Paris-Zurich train was included in the interrail ticket. Sorry, probably not much use as an answer. Best place for advice on this journey is www.seat61.com/Switzerland.htm#london-to-basel-and-zurich-by-train A quick search on www.raileurope.com/en suggests tickets one way could be as low as £95 but could be way higher. It's a fun journey though

Really? That’s amazing. I did see that it was an old locomotive but had no idea. Thank you for letting me know

Why no?

The train was pretty basic but the journey was amazing

@@TravelsWithCharlie In Slovakia this is one of the best sleeping section in a night trains 😀

The train from Vienna was perfect, just the train back to Vienna was bad

Er…no. I think you’ve missed the point. It was intentionally making a dramatic point to highlight how different the two trains were on the same route. The contrast amused me

Thanks 🙏

The cabin certainly helped

I could cope with 30 minutes. 2 hours 30 minutes was a long delay though

I can’t say I have been to any abroad but I could believe it is. Amazing collection

Different generation, he doesn’t even know what TV is! Enjoy the loop, I’m glad we finally got to do it.

Hi, I’m not sure on those details but I did all my research at this website, and it has all the links to booking websites etc www.seat61.com/index-mobile.htm

Yes, this train only in summer months

@@michalis_250 Thanks much.

Hi I would look at www.seat61.com as he has so much useful information. I think I booked this through the Austrian train website www.oebb.at/en/ but check Seat61 as he has up to date information on where to book etc

@@TravelsWithCharlie Thank you!

Banana Split ?? 🍌🍌🍌😁😁😁

He was really good, caves were ok but he made the tour.

Thanks 🙏

Thanks

Thanks

Fair point, I guess it was first class in the general sense of being an upgrade. Butler service…? Didn’t see that option

@@TravelsWithCharlie Oh Yes. Not really an option...but their normal service in First Class on Trenitalia's Executive class. The servers give you the full white glove service!

White gloves? Have to go back, do a longer journey 🤔

Used Freccia Rossa last year in Italy, most trips were short 2-3 hrs max so business class was perfectly fine, I actually booked the Salottino on those short trips with my family which are a private business class (a few bucks more then regural business class) for four people but when we went from Milan to Paris I booked the excutive class which was only $140 per person which was a bargain for a 7 hr ride and yes the service was incredible, full recline seats (only 8 seats in the whole cabin)and its all you can eat from the menu (Breakfast, Lunch or Dinner).

I feel I should try this out!

It’s certainly different, worth trying if you’re at Heathrow and have time to spare

We did enjoy it and to be fair, we did ok for mid-January. A few days earlier and it was snowing. We plan to head north to Corrour one day so we will come back in a better season. As for the mars bar, that doesn't surprise me. However I was pleasantly surprised by how more-ish it was!

😀 thanks

Thank you 🙏

Cheers. We are working on it 👍

Thank you 🙏

Ha. I am the last person to ask. I had plans to do so much in Paris but due to over ambitious planning and a lack of key metro lines running we so nearly missed our onward train. We dropped cases at the Gare de Lyon which took up a lot of time. My only advice is don’t underestimate how much time every little bit takes- buying tickets, finding and changing lines, walking from the metro to the tower (that took ages).

@@TravelsWithCharlie very helpful! We will have bags to consider, as well. We just hate to go through Paris without seeing the Eiffel Tower! Thank you!

@@TravelsWithCharlie do you remember which metro stop you used for the tower? Trocadero station or Bir-Hakeim?

So the RER line was not running and we walked to Austerlitz (first mistake) and came out at Ecole Militaire (long walk but nice approach), then panicked and went from Bir-Hakeim to Etoile to Gare de Lyon. All in all a bad choice of route. But hey, we made it with 5 mins to spare 😂

@@TravelsWithCharlie Oh wow! Thanks for sharing that.

Thanks 🙏

Ha, that sounds just like my dad! He was terrible like that 😬

Thanks, i was thinking something similar as i edited it 👍

Thanks 👍 Although Charlie is my son 🤦‍♂️ 😂

I’d happily go back tomorrow! Good fun

JAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

It certainly had a lot to see, good day out

Yes, although I want to see a ‘real’ Concorde, this one was hard to get a sense of inside

Hi - I can't now remember if I was able to choose seats or was just given good ones. We had good seats, but we did also travel Prima and maybe the seat layout is better? Their website suggests you can choose seats when buying, otherwise you have to call afterwards. Sorry I can't help more than that, have a good trip though

Hi. Yes you can choose you seat. On the checkout page, at the top right side, it will say "choose your seat" or "seat selection". It's hidden, but it's there!

Thanks, it is surprising how much work it takes! The power station is worth a visit if you’re in the area

Hi, not sure what you mean by 10 euros for the suitcase. Food you can do what you like, eat in the restaurant or bring your own

@@TravelsWithCharlie I was on the SNAV website and it said you get 9-10kg carry on included in the ticket price but if you want extra luggage, you pay 10 euro per extra piece of luggage

@lobsterfyit oh ok, we just took suitcases on, had none of that. Very odd. I booked through Direct Ferries maybe that is different?
