FGW Reserved seats on trains

Thu 12 May 2011, 12:36

Thanks for your replies. My reserved seat was available on both legs of the journey (though facing backwards instead of facing forwards, apparently due to the train being in reverse formation, though hopefully the driver was still at the front!)

If they refuse to move, go and get the train manager, rather than argue.

If you produce your ticket and someone is in your seat, just chuck them out! So many times there are reserved tickets with no one sitting in them! So everyone takes a chance and sits in the seat.

I am a very infrequent user of the trains, but have to be in London for a meeting tomorrow morning. I have advance purchased my ticket which has reserved seating. Can regular users enlighten me as to whether I will in reality get those seats - that is, is it more British Airways or Ryanair?
