Agreed. Personally I think the price point might be a bit high though - I hope they've done their market research.

At the right price point this could really take off. At the wrong one, it could be going around empty.

Am thinking the same regarding the price and also that maybe some passengers will have a preference for a round trip at a lesser price than two single trips.

There's a surprise - available on Dealrush for a tenner.
