Frequently Asked Questions

What is First Coast Flyer?

The First Coast Flyer is JTA’s new, premium bus rapid transit service. The Flyer offers customers a frequent, limited stop, easy and reliable way to get around town. Covering 57 miles of destination travel, the Flyer will be the largest transit system of its kind in the Southeast. The Flyer will connect customers to jobs, businesses and attractions with features as unique as the region it serves.

What are the benefits of the Flyer?

High-Frequency and Reliability:When you are standing at a station, the Flyer’s branded buses will arrive every 10 minutes (peak) hours and every 15 minutes (non-peak) hours.

Stations That Stand Out:Flyer stations have unique branding, are well lit and feature (in most locations) two shelters with benches, bike racks and a display kiosk with real-time bus arrival information.

Downtown stations have ticket vending machines (TVM.)

Wi-Fi On The Fly: The Flyer is a consistent hotspot of complimentary Wi-Fi, allowing customers to catch up on email while traveling.

Simple, Direct Routes:When the system is complete in late 2019, the Flyer will connect the North, Southeast, East (Beaches) and Southwest areas of Jacksonville with direct connectivity and frequent service.

The direct routes quickly connect people to greater employment and entertainment opportunities, and eliminate the need for downtown transfers.

Park-n-Rides:The first lot – at I-295 near Lem Turner – will open late Fall 2016.

Dedicated Downtown Bus Lanes:The Flyer will travel between downtown stations on dedicated bus lanes, making travel seamless and frequent.

Clean And Energy-Efficient:The Flyer fleet is comprised of 100% compressed natural gas (CNG) vehicles for a ride that’s quieter, more fuel efficient and better for the environment.
