[edit] History
Flights Hallmark was established, in its current home of Birmingham, in 1913.[1] Over the years it has developed in the coach industry, and currently has over 172 buses and coaches and 51 cars.[2] The company was purchased by Rotala in 2006.
[edit] Rotala
As part of Rotala, Flights has done a lot on behalf of the parent company. Flights Hallmark bought the Surrey Connect business, which became part of Rotala shortly afterwards. Although the Surrey Connect operation has now been sold to Wiltax, two routes are still operated from Flight Hallmark's Heathrow depot with Surrey Connect branding.
The Flights Hallmark Bristol depot is also home to Wessex Connect Bristol Park and Ride services since Rotala won the contracts.
[edit] Cuurent operations
The company currently runs buses and coaches from a number of depots throughout the UK. These services include shuttle bus services, airline or crew transfers, private hires, tours, and "VIP" services such as providing coaches for football teams. These currently include: Aston Villa F.C., Birmingham City F.C., West Bromwich Albion F.C. and West Ham F.C.. [3]
The chauffeur driven cars, part of the business is named Flights Corporate Transfers. This is usually airport transfer work.[4]
