From the loadings on Spirit Buses' Facebook photos, that's about 35-40 people. Double the capacity of a Bluebird.
On services like Spirit, leaving people behind is not an option due to the very limited frequency of around two journeys a day on routes other than the 15.
Using a Bluebird on a bus service like this is like a taxi company turning up to a supermarket with a Smart Fortwo. It's ridiculous and it's ain't going to happen.
It would if it was Arriva.
