STAGECOACH East Scotland has launched a bus link between Fife and Glasgow, allowing for direct travel to Glasgow Airport.

The route, X24, has been extended to operate hourly between St Andrews, Cupar, Glenrothes, Halbeath Park & Ride, Dunfermline, Kincardine, Glasgow city centre, Brahead Shopping Centre and Glasgow Airport.

Journeys from Fife to Glasgow Airport will run from 3.48am every morning, with the last journey returning from the airport at 10.35pm.

One of the coaches for the route has been rebranded as Express Jet Connect, to be easily recognisable on the road, with more coaches set to follow in the coming months.

Andrew Jarvis, Stagecoach managing director, said: “We’re excited to be launching a new route to Glasgow Airport.”
