I would imagine they were very low. Apart from the website and presumably notices on thier own buses have they actually bothered to advertise this venture?
I aint been on them yet (setting aside some time for this week or next) both trips i saw left Manchester with 0 Passengers, If am also honest i feel its finishing at the wrong place, Yes there is crimbo markets down Albert Square but the main shops are in the Arndale area

Didn't think of that. It's quite a walk from the Arndale to Albert square espically with a load of shopping bags In tow.
Looks like Red Rocket is crash landing as some trips have already gone missing from their Website, only 2 trips from Blackpool, 4 Trips from Preston and 4 trips from Manchester remain

Since the Service on Red Rocket was reduced some of the trips have not been running, my mate tried for 2 days to get the Service, On the 2nd day he rang the company to see what was going on, He was told the Bus had broke down as an Old Single Decker was used on that trip....

So effectively someone could buy a return ticket and travel from Preston to Manchester to do some shopping and be left stranded when they simply decide to drop the services for that day - what a joke!
