United is ending its last two Landline bus routes.
Bus service between Denver International Airport and Northern Colorado Regional Airport in Fort Collins, Colorado, is scheduled to end July 31, while the route between Newark Liberty International Airport in New Jersey and Lehigh Valley International Airport near Allentown, Pennsylvania, will terminate Sept. 1.
The airline did not provide a reason for scrapping the two connections.
“Our bus service from Newark to Allentown and from Denver to Fort Collins, Colorado, will end as Landline focuses on other opportunities,” the carrier said in a statement to AirlineGeeks. “We are reaching out to customers to offer refunds or rebooking options.”
United’s bus routes are operated by the Landline Company, which provides ground transportation between airports. It also operates routes for American, Air Canada, and Sun Country.
United has allowed customers to earn miles and points on its bus routes, and passengers’ luggage is transferred from aircraft to the bus at no additional cost. The airline advertised the service as offering many of the same amenities available on its airplanes, including wireless internet, reclining seats, and entertainment options.
