Second airport – city centre bus service takes off
21.01.11
Glasgow Airport passengers are spoilt for choice if travelling between the terminals and the city by road, the Evening Times reports. Two rival bus companies are now offering fliers a direct link between the airport and city after the launch of a new service this week.
Bus giant First has introduced its Glasgow Shuttle to rival the established Glasgow Flyer service, which has been operated by Arriva Scotland West for the last four years. Both offer round-the-clock buses between Buchanan Bus Station and the airport.
First have bought a fleet of 10 single decker, low floor buses to use on the route. The bus company's managing director, Ronnie Park, told the newspaper: ‘This new Glasgow Shuttle represents a significant investment of more than £1.5m for us and we look forward to operating the service. With journeys departing up to every 10 minutes, 24 hours a day the Glasgow Shuttle is a great option.’
Glasgow Airport boss Amanda McMillan added: ‘We are delighted to welcome First’s Glasgow Shuttle and wish the route every success.
