Tell us about your journey
The booking agent will need to know the
following information, so it may be useful
to have this to hand when you call:
• The date and time of the service you
are planning to travel on.
• Your seat reservation details (if you
have one).
• If you are travelling with other people,
especially if they also require assistance,
at Glasgow our assistance vehicles can
only seat three people each.
• If you have any requests such as a
preference to being assisted on foot
rather than in a buggy, please make
this clear to the booking agent.
