About Us

A-Line was founded in the World Cup winning year of 1966.
A family run operation from the start, Brian Haywood and brother in-law Kevin Prosser
set up A-Line as a small Taxi company serving the expanding city of Coventry.

We've come a long way since then, to become one of the best-known coach operators in Warwickshire.
Leaving Taxi operation behind us, we have expanded both through carefully planned organic growth,
and through the acquisition of DeLuxe of Mancetter and Abbey Coachways of Sutton Coldfield.

Today we operate a fleet of around 30 modern vehicles on a wide mix of work, from local buses to executive coach hire.
We operate a large number of School Buses on behalf of Warwickshire County Council, as well as
wheelchair accessible vehicles used exclusively to transport children and adults with Special Needs to Schools and Day Centres.



                                                                                            Our service buses certainly have changed a little over the years!

Our local service portfolio includes free shoppers services, event day services to the Ricoh Arena,
our 'Route 766' providing a vital lifeline to the rural communities between Nuneaton and Tamworth,
and our 'Route 101' connecting Wolston & Binley Woods with Ball Hill & Coventry City Centre.

Coach hire customers range from schools and colleges, to community groups, families,
and multi-national corporations such as E-On, Alstom, and Whittard of Chelsea.
We are the Preferred Transport Provider for the Ricoh Arena, home of Coventry City FC
and the IEC International Events Centre, where we proudly operate prestigious
Park & Ride services for major concerts at the Arena, aswell as providing dedicated vehicles
for the 'Sky Blue Express' services.  (For more information on the Ricoh Arena click here.)

With a base just 5 minutes away from Coventry Airport, and only 20 minutes from
Birmingham International, we are ideally situated to provide airport transfers,
both for pre-booked groups and last-minute flight diversions.

Our success and your satisfaction depend heavily on our employees.
Many of our drivers have National Vocational Qualifications in Customer Care, and all new drivers
are mentored by an experienced team member whilst they find their feet.

We take great pride in the staff we employ, and are always keen to receive feedback from customers.

Whoever you meet first from A-Line Coaches, whether it's one of our friendly, local drivers,
or our highly knowledgeable office staff, we aim to offer you all the assistance you require.

As a customer-focused business, your satisfaction is our top priority.
