Trams
Pretty fed up that the Bus Pass is not valid on the trams unless it has been issued in Edinburgh.
Over 60's from anywhere else in Scotland other than Edinburgh have to pay full whack.
It won't take long for the 100 bus service to be reduced/withdrawn to push people on to the trams so it looks like one benefit for the over 60's has disappeared.

Can a pensioner from Edinburgh have concessionary travel on the Glasgow Underground?
I don't believe so.

Sorry guys but I think the term to describe the tram system is emperor's new clothes.
It was years in the planning, massively over budget and it only runs from the airport to Prince's Street.
All I have to say is Monorail (and The Simpson fans will know what I mean!)2014 Target;
To overpay CC by £1,000.
Overpayment to date : £310

Airport Bus beats the trams every time for me every time.
Bus for me - free. Bus Stop is the first one you come to on leaving the terminal. 25 minutes to Waverley Bridge.
Trams - £8 return. Longer journey time.
No contest.
What a monumental waste of money!!!0 -
Actually, the Bus (Concession) pass doesn't get accepted on the Citylink Glasgow to Edinburgh Airport service either.0

I don't live in Glasgow but when I visit there my concessionary pass is accepted on the Underground.
When my relatives from Inverness go to Glasgow their passes are accepted on the Underground.
Why are people from Edinburgh excluded?0 -

Bus pass is certainly accepted Glasgow to Edinburgh Citylink. If it is not accepted on a Citylink service to airport - simple. Glasgow-Edinburgh Citylink, alight Maybury, cross road then Airport Bus to Edinburgh Airport. Will only add minutes to journey and these buses accept concessionary passes.0 -
But the issue is as a 'bus' pass, Citylink do not accept it on their new EH airport coach.
Sure, you can go to Maybury but this service is being reduced to the tram and will be less reliable. It may also be withdrawn.
Best option is getting off at Ingliston gates and walk the last 10 minutes.0
