Liverpool Lime St to London Euston | FIRST CLASS Train Review | Avanti West Coast | Is it worth it?

3:28 did anyone else notice the virgin logo was still on the balloon in the toilet

Solid vid Mike! Somebody else mentioned Seatfrog to me, forgot the name of it until I watched this! Defo gonna try it out!

[@Mikethetravellingscouser]

It’s worth it if you’re going to try first class anyway as it’ll work out cheaper than the standard first class ticket whatever happens!

Avanti have really upped their game recently with first class. I travel to London from Lime Street for work between once and the times a month (twice in a week some weeks) and the first class offering is good, especially the breakfast. As for the drinks service, the record for having service end and all the glasses collected by the onboard staff northbound to Lime Street was Tamworth!

[@michaeljohndennis2231]

I feel that Avanti should do direct services from Manchester to Holyhead on SailRail, timed with ferry check-in and/or arrival times at Holyhead - changing trains at Chester can be a nightmare at the best of times, especially on TfW

Must have been a London crew!!

[@senoritasteffy4324]

I tried to get an upgrade but was too late, there were no first class seats left. After watching this, I'd defo try again. Great video, thanks 😉

New Irish subscriber here, living in Manchester 21 years with extended family still living in Ireland, whom I try to visit as often as I can - I love the people of Liverpool and I’ve passed through Liverpool on the overnight coaches to Dublin via Holyhead over the years - I just wish they would bring back the ferries from Liverpool old port to Dublin North Wall or Dun Laoire, with direct trains from Manchester Victoria to Liverpool Lime St - I’d love to see Avanti doing more direct trains from Manchester to Holyhead as I go SailRail to Dublin, as it’s such a pain on tiny TfW trains changing at Chester, Crewe or Lladnuo to Holyhead - what I do now on SailRail to increase my connection time at Chester is I get a Northern train from Manchester Victoria to Chester and Avanti from Chester to Holyhead, as Manchester Piccadilly platform 13 stresses me out, especially if coming from Metrolink trams from Shudehill/Market St, as many of the TfW trains don’t even call at Deansgate/Castlefield to allow convenient transfers from Metrolink

This is a journey i have always wanted to do. 😊

[@eviesmith4495]

I was in Liverpool on Saturday

[@AnthonyBradshaw-z6l]

I've tried avanti and in the past Virgin Liverpool to London a number of times before they lost the contract I have to say virgin was a far superior product all round and you could get a decent bargain for first class if booked in advance

[@Mikethetravellingscouser]

Completely agree!

[@GardenNHS]

It's changed loads

[@strongbow310]

Why on earth is this music playing in the background

[@Sim2500]

ouch mike, expensive and all the features wasn't even available

[@Mikethetravellingscouser]

Very true. I hope it’s a different story on the refurbished Pendolino trains that Avanti use.

What's going on with yo eye brow dance?

[@michaelbruchas6663]

I would hate having a table at every seat - kicking somebody else’s legs across from you. Sounds like they were “tight” on food…
