Edinburgh Excitement<\/span><\/p>\n … omitting Livingston, just off the map to the left. And here are the Christmas Day servicers.<\/p>\n <\/p><\/div>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n … and the three routes operated.<\/p>\n <\/p><\/div>\n But here is the thing, Just along the A8 in Glasgow we find …<\/p>\n … joyous festive buses (?) …<\/p><\/div>\n <\/span><\/p>\n And Seasons Greetings from all a First Glasgow!<\/p>\n … R<\/p><\/div>\n It is the obvious way to get from Airport to centre although the tram is a viable alternative but possibly slower and certainly with more stops, so it will feel slower even if it isn’t! But there is a tram-shaped information “lounge”!!<\/p>\n fbb would always take the tram!<\/p><\/div>\n In the past there has been competition for airport business, for example from Guide Friday …<\/p>\n … but Lothian has had the vehicles, the “presence” and the frequency to overcome any attempt to muscle in on its business. And if the competitor won’t go away, Lothian just buys them out!<\/p><\/div>\n … and spread confusion over the current fare. Mind you, McGills, current Bright Bus owners, don’t help; this from their current web site:-<\/p>\n One offers a fare at \u00a315, the other at \u00a318 with no explanation!<\/p><\/div>\n … will start a competitive service\u00a0 between Edinburgh and the Airport.<\/p>\n The price compares VERY favourably with Lothian’s \u00a35.50 …<\/p>\n … and the route and stops are similar.<\/p>\n They certainly look the part on the outside – BUT …<\/p><\/div>\n … will they match Lothian’s posh interiors …<\/p>\n Bright Bus is not as frequent as Lothian and doesn’t run all night …<\/p>\n
