Meet a Motor Coach!

It is with great pleasure and excitement that Santa Barbara Airbus announces, Meet a Motor Coach. A free event open to the public offering private motor coach tours for children and their families. During the tour, little ones will learn about motor coach safety, new COVID-19 rules and guidelines, as well as learn how heavy equipment runs and is maintained. Airbus will have four thoroughly sanitized buses available for touring, Myles the Motor Coach, Barbara the Big Bus, Shelby the Shuttlebus and Marcus the Mini-Coach.

Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, Santa Barbara Airbus has not operated their local transportation services since March 23, 2020. Now 4 months later, the Santa Barbara Airbus team continues to closely monitor the situation and plan for a safe reopen date. While Airbus is not yet ready to reopen, the team has been actively seeking ways to reconnect safely with their local community. The Meet a Motor Coach event will provide a safe, fun, and educational event for children and families to get out of the house to tour a motor coach and learn all about buses.

The Meet A Motor Coach event will take place on August 7, 2020, between the hours of 10:00 am and 12:00 pm. Each group will be allowed private time to explore the inside and outside of the bus. The buses are anxiously awaiting your arrival so lace your boots, grab a mask, and reserve a tour by contacting the Santa Barbara Airbus office at (805) 964-7759 or clicking the button below.

    • My flight arrived early and I called customer service. They said I could absolutely take the 7:30pm shuttle. What a difference that made for me. I got to my hotel after traveling 18 total hours. The 10pm shuttle would have added 4 more hours.

    • I started using the Airbus when I moved to the Santa Barbara area in the 1980s. All my experiences have always been 5 star...or more! And, I'm including the trips I've made on the Airbus that have nothing to do with getting to and from LAX!

    • Hawk did an amazing job transporting my students to LA and back again. The traffic was brutal, there and back again, so we took HWY 1. He pointed out scenic and famous sites like Beyoncé’s house (kids loved that) and made the trip safe and enjoyable.
