And also Arriva say they have dedicated drivers however I don't think so because the number of times I have seen Sapphire drivers on the X15 is quite shocking
I think it's more a case that (tyresmoke might correct me on this one) drivers on the premium Sapphire and Max services have a wee bit of extra training (because heck some need to be taught how to crack a smile and say please and thank you) but that doesn't prevent them from driving non-Sapphire services.
