It'd be good if the rest of the pic in that tweet could be read properly! It would be, wouldn't it! I've asked the bloke, he doesn't have one! Launches on the 27th April! The new optares are to be on the 757 operating every 20 minutes. The remaining Scania's are to be refurbished, and placed on other Airport routes, and more than likely others! 27 April! Lets wait and see!

Yes I was speaking to Martijn Gilbert last Sunday & he showed me photos on his phone of the new buses, they have wood effect flooring & leather seats & WiFi etc...
The current Scanias are going on normal service & all buses are getting retrimmed in a retro style tiger texture similiar to WYPTE.

Sent from my GT-N7100 using proboards Yeah, sorry for the confusion! The Scania's are getting old, but still are powerful! Loved having them on the 63B a few years ago! Beats any Volvo First put on it now!(11A). Well, I hope one gets misallocated to the 62, 62A, 62C or 63! Free wifi on my way home

They seem to be going to a lot of expense for what is meant to be a low cost operator?

They seem to be going to a lot of expense for what is meant to be a low cost operator? They do, but ultimately, they are creating a brand for them selves. Those Deckers Gaz posted above were in Metroline Moquette. Having tiger striped seating would be more better than another operators!

Nice and smart as they are, bet it wont be long before they're filthy dirty. Light interiors are a swine to keep clean.

Not sure that pattern works very well with the ton of blue plastic surrounding it, but very good nonetheless.

Seems at least 2 of the Omnis have been repainted and refurbished into the new blue airport livery.
