Please can I ask for some advice from all you experts on here.
In late November we have two 18 year old Australians coming over for a month and staying in MK (Milton Keynes). They want to go to both Leicester and Hartlepool for a few days to visit wider family.
The £2.50 single-bus-trip scheme runs to 30th November but assuming they can use that am I correct that they can get the X6 from MK to Northampton and then the X7 from Northampton to Leicester and hence get to Leicester for £5? Anyone know what the fare is likely to be if their journey is after 30th November?
I can see tickets on National Express for MK-Hartlepool and return.
But ideally they would like to go MK-Leicester-Hartlepool-MK or MK-Hartlepool-Leicester-MK rather than returning to MK each trip and I am trying to work out any buses or coaches that would get them between Leicester and Hartlepool.
It looks like megabus run between Leicester and Darlington, Durham and Middlesborough so any suggestions for getting to/from Hartlepool and one of these places?
Thanks for input on this - they obviously are looking to make the journeys as cheaply as they can being students.
