Apologies if this has been asked and answered elsewhere - I did a quick search but couldn't find anything...
What's the situation for season ticket holders when industrial action prevents them from travelling? I'm thinking specifically about the Southern strikes that have been called for the next few weeks. I have a long commute (Southampton to Croydon via Barnham) and I'm unsure whether it's ok to not travel and submit some kind of Delay Repay claim or not. As far as I can tell, there won't be any trains at all between Havant and Chichester, so it's not like I can even try to get so far on SWT and see what happens.
Alternatively, is there any precedent for relaxing the routeing restriction and allowing travel via Clapham Junction or Guildford and Redhill instead?
