Airport shuttle

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

An airport shuttle is a shuttle bus that transports airline passengers to and from a commercial airport. Passengers wait at the shuttle stop for the bus to arrive, and at appointed areas where shuttle pick-up and drop-off are allowed at the airport. There is a prearranged schedule for shuttle arrivals and departures at the airports and the other shuttle stops. Shuttles can be as large as a city bus, or as small as a private van. A fee is charged per person and per way, and tipping is expected.

This essential service is provided to residents in areas where the closest commercial airport is far away. Taking an airport shuttle saves the passengers from having to drive to the airport and pay for parking.

Airport shuttles are someimes called Airporters.
