RedLion Coach is doing hourly shuttles from Fort Collins to Denver International Airport.

A new daily shuttle from Northern Colorado to Denver International Airport is gaining speed. 

RedLion Coach began offering hourly shuttles to the airport in July and offers what it calls luxury Mercedes Coach shuttles and minivans. 

The shuttles, which have leather captain chairs, snacks, WiFi and USB ports, run every hour from 3 a.m. to 11 p.m. 

Service areas include Loveland, Fort Collins, Windsor, Greeley and Johnstown. The Hilton Fort Collins and Comfort Suites off Interstate 25 and U.S. Highway 34 in Loveland are drop-off or pickup locations. 

Door-to-door pickup is also available.

Cost is $41 one way or $65 round trip. Door-to-door pick-up costs an additional $4. 

Tickets are available through www.RedLionCoach.com or by calling 970-699-5552. 

The addition of RedLion expands shuttle service to DIA from Fort Collins. 

Green Ride recently took over the SuperShuttle's Northern Colorado routes after SuperShuttle announced plans to pull out of the market. 

Green Ride Colorado offers service to the airport from the Harmony Transfer Center, 4414 E. Harmony Road, and the Loveland Shuttle Stop west of the Hampton Inn at 5500 Stone Creek Circle. Green Ride also offers home pickup and hotel service in Fort Collins, Windsor and Loveland.
