About Our Company

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 on 'Flexibus' services designed to meet the needs of those with mobility difficulties.


                                                                                            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,
'Route 101' and 'CountyLinks 735' services connecting surrounding villages with Coventry, as well as 'theNumber 10' between Bell Green
and the City Centre, and the X77 and X88 Summer Holiday services to Drayton Manor and Twycross Zoo.

Coach hire customers range from schools and colleges, to community groups, families,
and multi-national corporations such as E-On, Alstom, and HSBC.
We are a 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 events at the Arena, including 'Sky Blue Express' services.

With a base just 20 minutes from Birmingham International Airport,
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.
We have a full National Vocational Qualification (Customer Care) training programme for all of our drivers.

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.

We take great pride in the staff we employ, and are always keen to receive feedback from customers.
As a customer-focused business, your satisfaction is our top priority.
