Ya, it was called the YOW Airporter. It was quite a nice service. I think they stopped running a couple of years ago. The problem is that our airport seems to service business/government travellers who will take a cab at the expense of their employer and families who drive (or get driven) to the airport. I know it's more complicated than that, but I'm always surprized at how empty the 97 is when leaving the airport.
