Go-Ahead provides bus services in London and elsewhere in England through several subsidiaries (including Southern Vectis), which collectively operate more than 3,500 buses. In addition, Go-Ahead offers aviation support services such as cargo and baggage handling, but it has announced it is selling those operations.
