    The adult price is most likely a promotional fare whereas the student fares online tend to be the same as regular booking office student fares.

    Just buy whichever is cheaper in this situation ☺

    Men, it has been well said, think in herds; it will be seen that they go mad in herds, while they only recover their senses slowly, and one by one.
