If you are 16+ then you can't travel on a child ticket. Give them a call tomorrow and see what they can do for you.

yea i am and i only noticed the error when the email came through. Going to ring them tomorrow. dont mind having to re-book , but hopefully they can sort it out

rather be upfront and change it now or re-book then chance it and face a large fine

You just need to cancel and re-book.

Ensure you have the following ID to go with a student ticket, if you don't then an adult ticket is required.
