Leeds Bradford Airport bus axed
28.02.09
First York is to axe its services between York and Leeds Bradford Airport from next month as part of a raft of cuts. The link is being ditched after operating for two years.
First launched its airport link bus in 2007. It offered tourists direct return travel to Leeds Bradford Airport for £15 and took less than an hour each way. But after two months, it was averaging only four passengers a bus, and later that year the frequency reduced. First will now axe the service completely.
Managing director Dave Alexander said: ‘It is not commercially viable. In simple terms, not enough people are using the service and, if economic predictions are correct, this is likely to get worse over the next few months.’
