I think you've misunderstood. If they run the sale again on their East Coast route then the destinations can't change. They operate fixed routes on train tracks!
Maybe there is some confusion over those example routes shown above? They are just examples and not the only journey options available. This sale applied across the entire East Coast route - you just had to click get deal and find out the price for your specific journey if not listed above.

Think you've misunderstood the comment. He/she means the weekly offer will be for different destinations, not that your actual booking will suddenly change.

it probably isn't worth waiting to book. the destinations will likely change every week so you'd probably end up paying more by waiting when you realise your destination isn't available.

Why would the destinations change? Virgin East Coast run a specific route, they don't suddenly decide to run trains in a completely different part of the country from one week to the next. Why not check the map below before you start making stupid comments?
brilliant deal... booked 5 mins before the page expired...from kings cross to Edinburgh...£30 return. the quest for a cheap hotel is on...thanks!

Edinburgh to/from Newcastle showing as £10 each way not £5 as stated in their promotional page :neutral_face:
Booked London instead - it's the Chinese New Year celebrations in London on Sunday. Hopefully will get the 1000 bonus Nectar points too :sunglasses:

Waiting for the West Coast sale. Cheapest tickets I found were at 3pm, so no good for a day trip!

My email says they're only available for this weekend (Sat 28th Jan / Sun 29th Jan).
Not sure if they'll do this every weekend or if this is just a one off.

An interesting new deal, must book by end of today and travel this Sat or Sun only, can combine with Nectar 500 and 1000 bonus point offers which both happen to end today! Sounds like it will take place every Weds so worth waiting to book!
