Is LNER First Class Worth The Upgrade? | London To Leeds

In this video, I travel from London King’s Cross to Leeds with London North Eastern Railway (LNER) onboard one of their classic InterCity 225 trains to find out whether First Class is really worth the extra cost. The journey begins at London King’s Cross, where I visit the LNER First Class Lounge before boarding. Once onboard, I take a detailed look at the First Class seating, layout, and overall comfort, before comparing it briefly with Standard Class. I also review the First Class onboard catering, including the breakfast menu served on this service, and share my honest thoughts on the food, service, and overall experience. Along the way, we pass through Peterborough, Doncaster, and Wakefield, before arriving into Leeds, one of the busiest railway stations in the north of England. I break down the ticket prices, including how much I paid for my Standard Class ticket, how I upgraded using the Seatfrog app, and whether the final cost represents good value for money. So — is LNER First Class worth the upgrade from London to Leeds? Watch to the end to hear my verdict. Date Of Travel: August 2024 Price Paid: £23.55 (Standard Ticket) + £16.00 (Seatfrog Upgrade) How I Booked: LNER Website + Seatfrog App If you enjoyed the video, consider subscribing for more UK train travel reviews — including an upcoming look at Avanti West Coast First Class.
