The Pinamonte Experience Posted July 18, 2008 Report Share Posted July 18, 2008 Would like to make the trip to Blackpool on the opening day of the season, was wondering if any of you would be able to fill me in on a few things regarding tickets etc I'm sixteen - does this mean I will not be allowed to travel on the coach, even if I was to purchase an adult coach ticket? If I was to purchase an adult coach ticket, would I be able to purchase a child/under-16/student match ticket? If official coach isn't an option, do any of you have experience with trains/National express coaches to Blackpool? Or any advice on what the best way to get there would be? Thanks in advance Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
42 trumpton Posted July 18, 2008 Report Share Posted July 18, 2008 Not sure what age it is for adult/kid price but a adult CATS coach tkt and a under 16 tkt for the game should see you ok. When i used to go away on my own 13/14 years of age i used to do that and had no problems. So good luck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest DanC Posted July 18, 2008 Report Share Posted July 18, 2008 Anyone know any decent b&bs, Well it doesn't matter how decent it is as long as it's cheap and close to the night life. Not concerned about how far from the ground as il be driving up on the sat morning and staying over so can easily drive to the ground. Just don't want to be to far from the night life for when I'm pissed up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

westred1 Posted July 18, 2008 Report Share Posted July 18, 2008 So what is the age that you are allowed on CATS without an adult? As I'm 15 and it's not easy for my dad to get to games. 42 trumpton, I don't think Bristol City Loyal meant any offence towards you I think he was just curious as he is unsure about the age restrictions on CATS.

Thanks very much HancockRED92, i'm 15 aswell, my dad struggles to take me to many away games atall, so thats why i wanted to know but for some reason 42 Trumpton took offense to that. I've heard some people say minimum age is 16/17. Not quite sure which one? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OK fair point, hancock but all i was doing was answering a question to the best of my knowledge, and bc loyal asks me questions that are not relavent to this thread. so I'm sorry to bc loyal if i offened you thank you hancock for pointing out my misinterpetation.

Almondsbury_red Posted July 18, 2008 Report Share Posted July 18, 2008 the minimum age is sixteen but i got on when i was fifteen so you'll have no problem. the stewards don't check a match ticket either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LouieDane Posted July 18, 2008 Report Share Posted July 18, 2008 anyway.. before we were interrupted by this love in I believe we were talking about travel.... I'm 16 and I find it much easier to take trains to games and it is usually much cheaper for a child's train fare than Cats adult ticket. Also trains are faster, more comfortable and more flexible than CATS, so I would definitely recommend taking the train to the Blackpool game, especially as Blackpool South station is very close to the ground. Hope this helps Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hope this helpsProblem with Blackpool is it's 38 quid for a child, And also there is no return journey home. So CATS would be cheaper for Blackpool plus you will be getting back on the same day. I wouldn't recommend CATS to anyone due to past experiences but unless you can drive or get a lift with someone or stay over night then CATS is really the only option.

Correct, train journeys to Blackpool from Bristol didn't look great when I looked to say the least! I'll enquire about CATS, although the stories I've heard in the past don't exactly fill me with confidence. :noexpression: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
