Leeds Bradford Airport was using a couple for the car park transfers. Not sure if they still are.

The ex London Mercedes Citaro Artics up at Leeds/Bradford Airport are not used for Car Park shuttles. They are instead used airside only, transferring arriving inbound passengers from the aircraft into the terminal building arrivals hall. These are operated alongside 2+ Optare Tempo's. The Airport also use to have 2+ ageing Optare Excel's, but I think these might now have been retired.
The Airport own Car Park shuttles are operated by the recently acquired single deck Enviro 200MMC's and if still in use the older Transbus Darts.

York’s the only place right now you can go too with Artics still left. Most artics have either gone or been scrapped. There’s an interesting story about the pic below. Some wright fusion Volvo B10LAs were initially used on the London route 207 in early 2001-2003 period, ableit in standard first livery, they were Originally Glasgow buses. They returned to back Glasgow once the 207 recieved it’s Citaro artics in 04. |

The Citaro Artics used at Leeds Bradford Airport are ex London. Ex Stagecoach still complete with Stagecoach seat moquette.
Only used Airside and only if your plane has to park at the far remote stands

The London ‘trial’ vehicles left well before the 207 got Citato’s - in fact I think they left begore the Red Arrow got theirs in 2002. There were 6 vehicles - 4 Glasgow B10LA’s in Barbie, and 2 Southampton B7LA’s in London Barbie. |
