But, but, but... a season is one of the times when first class is usually
worth the extra [1], as it's 150% of the standard fare (160% on some lines,
I know). Since that gets you a seat and coffee etc, I guess it's worth it.

Only gets you coffee on some "Intercity" services. Many suburban First
Class services have no catering at all (eg FCC).

But more likely to need the guarenteed seat (exSilverlink being an
exception, no catering, but no seating problems)
