Passengers on a Heathrow pod
With no waiting and a non-stop route to their chosen destination, the Ultra pod system provides a safe, secure and convenient mode of transport that removes the need to follow set schedules.
Easy-to-use, the simple touch-screen interface offers four languages and is supported by an automated voice-prompt; the control team is on-hand to answer any questions at the touch of a button.
The spacious pods, with their large door space, enable ease of access for all groups of people and have been designed to meet the needs of disabled passengers, as well as provide space for items such as luggage, pushchairs, shopping and bikes.
