Holyhead - Aylesbury

[First class]

Hi,

There are two ticket routes available for Holyhead-Aylesbury:

1. CREWE (SOR is £32.25 prv)
2. +LONDON (SOR is £65.50 prv)

If I got the cheaper option route CREWE, then am I permitted to travel through London anyway considering a Holyhead-London train passes through Crewe?

Llandudno Jn - Aylesbury has route BANBURY or +LONDON, so route CREWE seems a bit odd....

I appriciate the underground bit would make me pay because it doesn't have the "+" symbol...

Thanks.

No
Taking the cheaper fare the only Routeing point for Aylesbury that passes the fares rule is Banbury.
So the permitted journey is Holyhead - Shotton (holyhead's routeing point) - Banbury - Aylesbury.
The permitted routes are various combinations from Crewe to the West Midlands and then to Banbury via Leamington Spa
As the ticket is valid only via Crewe you are not allowed the permitted routes bypassing Crewe via Chester/Wrexham/Shrewsbury.
