ITFC coaches 13:49 - Apr 15 with 1057 views | lightningtractor | Hi everyone! I'm currently unable to drive and so am getting a supporters coach (to Hull!) for the first time. Anyone travel regularly on them and have anything to share that I should know? Do people sit in the same seats each way? Are items left on the coach during the game? All (sensible) insight much appreciated. | | | | |

At least 45 minutes, often an hour, on the way and a shorter stop on the return journey. Coaches 1 to 3 are allocated seating, but the rest are on a first come first served basis. No hot food or alcohol allowed on the coaches! [Post edited 15 Apr 14:55]

thank you! And for the unreserved coaches, how soon prior to departure would you suggest arriving? Are people there well in advance to get certain seats? | | | |

Also, the departure time, aim to be 30ish minutes before that. Nothing like a group of 4 or more people all arriving 2 minutes before we're due to leave and all want to sit together. The coaches should be there 20-30 minutes before they are due to leave and your best off being there then too. | | | |

They usually start loading up about 15 mins before departure. | |

The coaches usually arrive around 30 minutes before departure, and you can usually walk straight on and sit where you fancy. | |

I’d say it’s actually rare for the coaches to arrive more than 20 minutes before the designated departure time. Normally lots of people waiting before then though. [Post edited 15 Apr 19:18]
