February 28th - Annual increase of rail fares across England and Wales 6:49

منذ يومين6:49

6:49

On Sunday 2nd of March, rail fares across England and Wales will rise by 4.6 per cent. Alex Robertson, chief executive of the consumer watchdog Transport Focus, has been telling me that passengers need to feel that they are getting value for money – by increasing reliability of trains. Also a reminder to buy that railcard on 28 February or 1 March, before they increase by £5 to £35. This podcast is free, as is Independent Travel's weekly newsletter.

February 26th - Heathrow eyes a third runway by 2035 4:24

منذ 4 أيام4:24

Heathrow has just announced record passenger numbers for 2024 – but it has a much bigger prize in its sights. I have been talking to Thomas Woldbye, the chief executive of the UK's busiest airport, about his plans for the future – and the natural environmental concerns about expansion.

It’s a busy week for airport announcements in the London area. On Wednesday Heathrow is likely to say more on its expansion plans for an added runway – and Gatwick is hoping to hear a decision from the transport secretary, Heidi Alexander, about its hopes to bring the standby runway into permanent use.

Today the second episode of a special two-part podcast with Barry Collins – a property developer from Eastbourne who decided to take up the SAS million-point challenge. He had to fly on 15 of the 17 SkyTeam airlines in the last few months of 2024 to learn 1,000,000 frequent flyer points. We last heard from him when, at Jakarta, a fellow frequent-flyer broke it to him that some of his flights didn't actually count ... This podcast is free, as is Independent Travel's weekly newsletter.

February 19th - Russia: international pariah, but well connected 5:58

منذ 11 يومًا5:58

5:58

As talk of a peace deal intensifies, Russia remains on the no-fly list for the UK and European Union. But many airlines from outside Europe are happy to fly to and from Moscow, St Petersburg and elsewhere – with the UAE better connected than ever, including flights on Air Arabia for only £80 one way between Abu Dhabi and Moscow. Access from the UK via Belgrade and Istanbul is easy. But be warned that the Foreign Office says Russia is a no-go zone. This podcast is free, as is Independent Travel's weekly newsletter.

February 18th - Trainline isn’t the only answer 5:10

منذ 12 يومًا5:10

5:10

“You won’t find cheaper tickets anywhere else”: that is the remarkable pledge from rail retailer Trainline. A poster campaign outside one of the UK’s busiest railway stations creates the impression that the market-leading ticketing firm is at least as cheap as other sources. But I have different recommendations to save money when you travel by train. This podcast is free, as is Independent Travel's weekly newsletter. Sign up here to get it delivered to your inbox.

An exclusive for you today. After five years of closure to tourists, the Democratic People’s Republic of Korea will receive its first Western visitors this week. As Simon Cockerell, general manager of Koryo Tours has been telling me, only a small and remote region, Rason, will initially open. NB: The Foreign Office warns against visiting North Korea.

February 14th - Britain's busiest rail line to be hit by strikes this month and next 5:00

منذ 16 يومًا5:00

5:00

Mind the gap – between what train drivers on London's Elizabeth line have been offered, and what they believe they deserve. The employers have offered a 4.5% raise which would take their annual salary above £75,000, but the members of the train drivers' union, Aslef, have voted overwhelmingly to strike on four days in February and March. Are they pushing their luck? This podcast is free, as is Independent Travel's weekly newsletter. Sign up here to get it delivered to your inbox. Hosted on Acast.

February 13th - The King's Cross station sprint 4:56

منذ 17 يومًا4:56

4:56

Network Rail wants passengers to stay safe at stations – not running for their trains – and to avoid delays to trains at London King's Cross, the hub for the East Coast main line. So it is trialling removing trains from the departures board three minutes before departure. In response, I have been trialling how long it takes to walk from the concourse to the mysterious platform 0. This podcast is free, as is Independent Travel's weekly newsletter.

February 10th - Heathrow airlines and hotels deplore "vast overcharging and declining service" 5:05

منذ 20 يومًا5:05

5:05

In an unprecedented and coordinated attack, the airlines that use Heathrow airport – as well a prominent hotelier – are demanding lower charges and higher standards. Virgin Atlantic, British Airways’ parent IAG, the Heathrow Airline Operators’ Committee (AOC) and the Arora hotel group say the current way that charges are set by the Civil Aviation Authority are not fit for purpose. Heathrow says it wants a better long-term arrangement, but that expansion – in the form of a third runway – must be paid for. This podcast is free, as is Independent Travel's weekly newsletter.
