I think your right about this Spirit Coaches. It doesn't look as though he has a fleet to speak of, hence giving passengers the choice of a coach or low floor single decker.
Wonder if he even has the CPC required for the operators licence or if he is going to use someone else?
It does seem a great idea, but hoping after the publicity he is getting, that it doesn't just peter out.
Speaking of possible route suggestions, is it worth him having a direct service to Newcastle?
Fingers crossed it works out though!
Edit: Just to pick up on the CPC thing, if he hasn't got his o licence and is putting himself through the CPC to save costs (opposed to hiring a transport manager), he will either need to sit the upcoming September exams or wait until December. Either way, there is normally a 2 month turn around for certificates/confirmation of a pass of the modules.
If that is the case and he is getting his own CPC, the earliest he could apply for his o licence, would be late November and that would be on condition of him passing each of the modules in early September.
