Default Chaos likely when they close ticket windows at King's Cross St. Pancras

The agent at the airport in the case of Stansted Express is StEx
itself - they've a counter after customs for arrivals.

StEx is just a brand of Abellio GA. Are you sure this is an AGA sales
office, and not some sort of travel agent?

Almost certain, yes.

See:

There's nothing in that announcement which persuades me it's an
AGA-staffed operation.

Well, if you want to be pedantic (and, come on, you love it!), I
didn't say anything about it being "AGA-staffed"!


So what are you claiming then - that it's an AGA "owned" booth with
airport-handling-agency staff inside?


I'll turn that around and ask 'what are you claiming'?


I'm claiming I can't see any evidence it's anything other than a travel
agency franchise.
