Second Glasgow Airport – city centre bus service takes off
21.01.11
Glasgow Airport passengers are now spoilt for choice if heading to the terminals from the city by road, the Evening Times reports. Two rival bus firms are now offering fliers a direct link between the airport and city centre following the launch of a new service this week.
Bus giant First has introduced the Glasgow Shuttle to rival the Glasgow Flyer, operated by Arriva Scotland West for the last four years. Both offer round-the-clock bus services between Buchanan Bus Station and the airport.
First have bought a fleet of 10 single decker, low floor buses for the route. The bus company's managing director Ronnie Park told the newspaper: ‘This new Glasgow Shuttle service represents a significant investment of more than £1.5million 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 service and wish the route every success.
