Santa Barbara Airbus Takes Active Measures to Prevent the Spread of COVID-19
#RollingResponsibly
Airbus has spent the months of closure updating cleaning and operational procedures to provide the safest service upon reopening. Airbus launched its #RollingResponsibly campaign to highlight and streamline the changes in service due to COVID-19. Passengers can feel comfortable on the coach knowing that they will have a row to themselves if traveling alone due to reduced passenger capacity. Santa Barbara Airbus will utilize a sanitizing fogger on vehicles, sanitizing solution on high touch surfaces, and requiring a face mask for all passengers and employees. Air inside the buses is also kept clean through treated vehicle filtration systems which pull fresh outside air inside and filter it through the bus every three minutes. These changes and more will allow Airbus to reopen with a safe and clean service.
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.
