Title: Peak restrictions on bank holidays Post by: Brucey on April 27, 2016, 20:41:05 I'm looking at the Super Off-Peak Return from Cambridge to Temple Meads (see http://www.brfares.com/#faredetail?orig=CBG&dest=BRI&rlc=YNG&ldn=1&tkt=SSR), for the coming bank holiday Monday.
The restriction text applies the restriction "Mondays to Fridays". Does anyone know how this restriction is applied on bank holidays? Unless I've missed something blindingly obvious, I cannot see any easement that would ease the restrictions for this ticket.

Quote Intended for use by computerised journey planners and online booking systems. To determine whether a journey is permitted, the time restrictions shown below are applied to: - The origin and destination of the journey - All locations where a passenger changes trains during a journey -The final destination of all trains travelled on during a journey (whether or not the passenger is travelling to that final destination) Note that these data can not be used to determine time restrictions when breaking and resuming a journey at an intermediate station. This restriction code does not apply on the following dates/days: [...] from Mon 2 May 2016 until Sun 8 May 2016 Eased on these days: Su Mo .. .. .. .. Sa ...which to my mind says no restrictions apply to this ticket on the forthcoming Bank Holiday, May 2nd.
