I've read into it and it seems quite dire compared to Virgin East Coast. I've read you get complimentary soft drink but not alcohol - you have to purchase this!?
Aye thats about right. Whenever possible go for VTEC. I travelled from Birmingham to Newcastle once and was given a soft drink, 2 bags of crisps, a piece of cake and a piece of shortbread - and that was it!
