Hi all,
I've recently booked Advance tickets to the Isle of Wight including a cross-London transfer which - such is the nature of the beast - have to be issued on CCST. Now, I also need to make reservations with Hovertravel for the Solent crossing, which necessitates me entering the rail ticket number(s) into an online form. I have no great desire to go to my local station to collect the tickets until I next need to use the train which won't be for a few days, and "My trips" on the EMR website (through which I bought the tickets) shows only collection references, not the ticket numbers. So, is there any way I can ascertain the ticket numbers before I actually collect the tickets, or have I got to go to the station before I can make the hovercraft reservations?
I know I don't absolutely HAVE to make hovercraft reservations but I'd rather do so to cover myself (I want crossings at fairly busy times of day) and I also know I could have opted for postal delivery of the rail tickets - but I didn't think about that when I was making the bookings.
Thanks for any advice that you can provide.
