@British_Airways Maybe feed back to someone on the ground that you need more staff tidying up in here really quickly? I would like to think you’ve known how busy the airport would be today for some months. It shouldn’t be a surprise….

@British_Airways 20 minute queue for business class check in at LGW this morning and lounges so badly understaffed that most tables are full of dirty plates. Not the premium experience I expected.

@GWRHelp just a random idea. When your trains are busy, maybe use a bit of joined up thinking to radio ahead and tell the station where the empty seats are before the train gets to the platform, rather than once passengers are already onboard?

Thanks for confirming Tony. We're very sorry for this. There is a known issue which has been raised internally for routes north of Lancaster so hopefully this will be resolved as soon as possible, although we're unsure when this will be fixed at the moment I'm afraid. You can still book at a ticket office or through another retailer. Apologies again for the inconvenience. - Bipasha

@AvantiWestCoast can’t get your website to price. Tried different browsers and the app over the last 24hrs but keeps giving an error. Any ideas?

@Uber I took a car yesterday. The driver made 5 wrong turns, so 5 min journey took 34 mins. Your automated customer service can’t see a problem with this.

@etihad have you cut your earnings rates? I have a flight coming up with you that was showing 7,000 miles per sector and has now dropped to 5.250 per sector, but can't find any confirmation of this change.

@MonkComms In 2021 the Franchise ended and since then we have been in an operating contract with the DfT and in line with this contract they receive ticket sales money and are responsible for investment into our services and this includes updating our aging rolling stock. 1/2^LEX

@chilternrailway can you turn the heating off? Front carriage, 7.07 departure from Myb to Birmingham is a sauna. Unhealthy and pretty grim. At least the fares are cheap, yeah?

@chilternrailway I have been commuting on this line for more than 20 years. As a business owner, I can see fares have soared. you need to decide between an opening window (cheap, 3rd world) or aircon. Offering neither is offensive to customers - shareholders have taken plenty in recent years.

@MonkComms I understand Tony and would like to reassure you that we share your frustration. We have requested investment from the DfT for a new fleet of trains to replace our aging units. ^LEX

@Atreyeu_ @chilternrailway What’s it at now? Must be well over 49 in the oven on wheels… getting a vague waft of a breeze as the driver has his window open and it’s displacing some air into car 1 but god forbid your staff get a bit warm. #joke #gbr

@chilternrailway Thank you - but we all know your staff would refuse to work in these conditions and cancel the train so why do you expect your clients to tolerate it? I pointed this out to the driver and station staff before we left London. Reality is they don’t care…

@chilternrailway I think you need to decide if you have opening windows or some kind of airflow in the carriage. “Neither” isn’t really good enough…

@MonkComms Hi Tony, the air conditioning units are programmed to create an ambient temperature of 21 degrees all year round. I apologise if the unit in your carriage is not working as it should be, to help us report this please can you confirm the five digit number of the carriage. ^LEX

@MrMorton @armchairtweets Whilst I know we aren’t allowed to make investment recommendations, I would actively say get your flu shot. This has been brutal.

For anyone following along, ended up in an Uber from Hays & Harlington and just got to check in as they were closing up. Made it! Thanks for all the positive vibes.

All trains stopped in and out of Paddington. Apparently someone has climbed onto the overhead cables in the station. Currently trying to get to the airport for a flight. @BBCLondonNews @GWRHelp @HeathrowExpress
