THE SHUTTLE - SUPPORTING OUR STUDENT COMMUNITY
F.A.Q.s
We are committed to offering the cheapest shuttle service to or from St Andrews. Also, unlike private shuttle services, all our vehicles and drivers are licensed according to taxi regulations at Fife Council so they meet the highest standards of maintenance and trustworthiness. This gives our
passengers maximal peace of mind.
Because we are all taxi operators, our vehicles are maintained to a much higher standard than private shuttle operators as they have to be licensed by Fife Council and undergo an annual taxi test which is 75% more rigorous than an MOT.
In addition, all our drivers are individually licensed by Fife Council, vetted by Police Scotland and have PVGs – this is the statutory check carried out by Disclosure Scotland which allows us to carry children and vulnerable adults.
Our £20 (starting price) per person shuttle service operates at fixed times and offers door-to-door convenience. For private and shared transfer prices, please refer to our booking form for the most accurate and current rates.
Yes, unlike other St Andrews “shuttle” services, who charge for extra for baggage, we allow 1 small or medium case and 1 carry on bag (rucksack, bag, or anything that can sit on your legs whilst in transfer). Please check our luggage policy for details on size and weight limits, and information on additional or oversized items.
Yes, however, for any shuttle that is under-filled, we will contact you advising of costs, but also providing an alternative time of travel. We are keen to ensure that you get the most affordable option for your transfer
For private transfers, our drivers monitor flight statuses and adjust pickup times accordingly. For shared transfers via the St Andrews Shuttle service, please contact us as soon as possible to discuss your options.
