From the NY Times - Nov 11, 1997 In a heated dispute that could affect thousands of people commuting to New York City's airports, the Port Authority of New York and New Jersey has suddenly canceled its 47-year-old agreement with Carey Bus Lines to provide airport service from midtown Manhattan and replaced it with Gray Line New York, the city's largest tour bus company. The sudden switch was imposed at 12:01 on Sunday morning when the authority's police force barred Carey buses from entering the Port Authority Bus Terminal at Eighth Avenue and 42d Street... Under terms of its agreement with the Port Authority, Mr. Flateman said Gray Line had obtained several permits for use of the bus terminal and airports, some of them extending over more than 10 years. He said the company had agreed to make payments to the Port Authority that will be adjusted to reflect Gray Line's income, but are expected to be about $1 million a year. |
