Good Friday start? From a charging point of view. Would it be midnight tonight?

I'm not sure what's on our tariff for Good Friday. If it's fare and a half, it will be 2330 in our case. If it's double fare, which I doubt, I'm not sure when it will start. It could be 2330 or 0000. One thing is certain...I won't be there to find out or worry about it. 8)

Then when does it end, from a charging point of view?

If it's fare and a half, 0600 Saturday, on our tariff. We would also probably specify fare x 2 'til that time as well if that was the case.

Depends what's on the HC tariff sheet. Locally the Good Friday tariff ends 6.00am the following morning. 8-[

It makes sense now when people keep asking me if it's fare and a half or double fare on bank holidays. I've never understood why. Having said that I think some PH charge at that tariff instead of the tariff provided by the company they work for
