Hi, this question is quite confusing so I’ll try my best to explain. I have cut it into sections to help people process my way of thinking. It’s driving me crazy and I think I’m worrying about nothing but travelling is stressful to begin with.
I want to travel into my city centre with my little brother. I’m 25 and he is 7. We are going to the Lego brick show.
I like to book my bus tickets in advance so I don’t have to worry about having the right money, talking GB with the driver or losing my ticket as it’s on my phone.
They don’t do 1 adult and 1 child shared tickets. You can only activate one ticket on the app then have to buy another on the bus, defeating the purpose of me buying in advance.
They do an Adult Duo ticket which ends up being £1 or so more than it would’ve been to buy two separate ticket. I’m am willing to buy it for extra money just to avoid the hassle so I can just scan my phone and be done with it. But now I can’t help but worry that the bus driver will say my little brother can’t travel on an adult ticket.
Does anyone know if a child can travel on an adult ticket? It’s probably the stupidest, irrational question ever but there isn’t a better option and all of the contact options are closed until Tuesday, the event is Sunday. I realise I probably should have sorted this sooner but I didn’t get paid until today from work meaning I couldn’t purchase the tickets before now.
I hope this makes sense and someone understands how something so small like this can really screw up an autistic brain. I’m just trying to find the best, most hassle-free way of doing it. I don’t do well travelling alone, both of us are autistic and there is no other way of getting there as Uber is ridiculously expensive, I was going to stay home and forget the show but then why should the bairn miss out just because of a transport hiccup when he loves Lego
