grey line airport shuttle To run New year’s day

Morgantown, WV- Mountain Line’s Grey Line shuttle service to Pittsburgh airport will run on New Year’s Day, January 1, 2006. “The holiday travel has kept the Grey Line extremely busy. I expect that to continue for the next few weeks with Mountaineer fans flying to and from Atlanta for the Sugar Bowl and WVU students’ return after the winter break,” said Joanne Mahnken, Marketing Officer for Mountain Line Transit. Reservations are strongly recommended.

       Riders can purchase a one way shuttle between Morgantown and the Pittsburgh airport for $25. Reserved tickets may be purchased online through the Mountain Line Transit website at WWW.BUSRIDE.ORG or at the Grey Line ticket office at 420 DuPont Road. Other destinations on the daily shuttle route include the Pittsburgh Greyhound station, Fairmont and Clarksburg. The Grey Line shuttle is scheduled to run 365 days a year. For more Grey Line information, call (304) 296-3869.
