The big success of Stagecoach's luxury Citylink Gold

Scots motorists are ditching their cars to travel by citylink gold’s luxury express coach service, new research has revealed.

The service operates six services a day on two routes linking Glasgow with Aberdeen and Inverness, attracting more than 130,000 passengers in just 12 months.

And the latest Scottish Citylink research found more than a third of these used to travel by car, while another 31% had previously gone by rail.

The survey also revealed 94% of all customers said Citylink Gold offered value for money, while nine out of 10 were ‘satisfied’ or ‘very satisfied’ with its punctuality.

Scottish Citylink Managing Director Bob Montgomery said:

Citylink Gold has really taken off and has been particularly popular with commuters and business travellers, who love the fast journey times, at-seat refreshments and competitive fares

Instead of the stress and rising cost of going by car, people are being attracted by the convenient, stress-free journey and free wi-fi, which means they can relax or can catch up on work on the coach.
