Personally I believe they should - the best is to offer flexibility then there won't be a need to annoy people or refund things. Offer a discount to key workers if applicable.
Thoughts?

Essential workers should have fares increased? Great idea.Personally I believe they should - the best is to offer flexibility then there won't be a need to annoy people or refund things. Offer a discount to key workers if applicable.

At this point I'd suggest any key worker travelling with works ID or a letter form their employer confirming their status should travel for free...Essential workers should have fares increased? Great idea.

Not sure what you mean by "essential worker" but if you are referring to the keyworkers defined here then I don't see why they wouldn't use Advance tickets?How many essential workers would use an advance ticket?

Maybe they should stop selling privs given they are only to be used for leisure travel
Advance tickets are "worthwhile" for all sorts of journeys that I would count as "local", such as York to Leeds.But most of these workers surely make local journeys to get to work where advance tickets aren’t worthwhile?

Or next day, especially for early morning journeys.Perhaps they could be sold on the day only?
