angelin Posted June 8, 2022 Report Share Posted June 8, 2022 Do you think there is anyway Glasto will post us our tickets? Ive got to get to Oxford but there is meant to be both a rail and tube strike. Its going to cost a small fortune in taxis☹️ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
clarkete Posted June 8, 2022 Report Share Posted June 8, 2022 I'd be very doubtful. For most of us their theory is we'll be coaching from where we live and they don't like to publicly make exceptions. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Nal Posted June 8, 2022 Report Share Posted June 8, 2022 Going to be a lot more people at Gate A collecting tickets after missing the bus. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've got to get from Portsmouth to Bristol on the Tuesday night to get my coach on weds morning, so I've booked a cheapo national express (via London) in case the strike goes ahead.

David_Watts Posted June 8, 2022 Report Share Posted June 8, 2022 This will be the first time I've bought coach with my Glastonbury tickets. I didn't realise that you pick up your tickets when you board the coach. That would explain a lot - or have I got the wrong end of the stick.

If that's the case you should have an email already (mine was 25th May) confirming that. From mine:- "ENTRY TICKETS: As agreed at the point of purchase, you will need to collect your entry tickets on the coach. This is mandatory and no exceptions can be made. Each individual entry ticket assigned to a registration will be individually sealed in an envelope. Each passenger must show a form of Identification in order to claim their entry ticket. As such all parties must be present on the coach in order to collect their entry ticket. The driver will only hand out entry tickets to those present on the coach."

Glast0baby Posted June 8, 2022 Report Share Posted June 8, 2022 Just your friendly reminder that there is already a pretty thorough thread on all issues with See tickets coach tickets and picking up tickets... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DeanoL Posted June 8, 2022 Report Share Posted June 8, 2022 The festival license requires a certain proportion of people arriving by public transport. On the day itself, once they have car park ticket numbers, and can see arrivals on the Castle Cary Shuttle bus, they'll have an idea for how much, if any, flexibility they have for helping people who "missed" the coach. Given this recent announcement, I'd expect the number arriving by train to drop dramatically, possibly already creating an issue for the festival in terms of the license, so expecting there to be *any* flexibility on missed coaches this year is optimistic I think.

During the day for a saloon would be about £60-£65 with a pre book, off the rank probably about £85 a 6 seater £70-£75 with a pre book and off the rank probably about £95 depends on the firm, time of day and size of cab tbh.
