854:. The 585 m-long (1,921 ft) line takes travellers from the public transport interchange to the airport check-in in 90 seconds. It is a dual track shuttle with two stations and two trains, each of two cars, operating independently at a speed of 36 kilometres per hour (22 mph). The trains operate at a minimum headway of 120 seconds, consisting of a dwell time at each station of 30 seconds and a journey time of 90 seconds. The individual cars carry twenty-seven passengers at 0.33 square metres (3.6 sq ft) per person, thus giving a capacity of 54 passengers per train. 751: 839: 629: 263: 575: 532: 491: 450: 409: 368: 616: 312: 293: 597: 556: 513: 472: 431: 390: 349: 1441: 49: 861:
The Birmingham Airport Link was Doppelmayr Cable Car's first airport system and replaced the temporary bus service that had been operating since 1995.

The current system is a fully automated cable-hauled system that opened in 2003 and has a length of 585 metres (1,919 ft). It takes passengers between the high-level railway station concourse and the airport terminal buildings. It is free to use, and handles three million passengers per year.

station. The replacement project was started on 30 March 2001 and completed on 7 March 2003 with the first day of public operation. The project contract cost ÂŁ11 million. The new system has motivated passengers travelling to the airport to leave their cars at home and use public transport.

During the day, the trains run every few minutes each way. At off-peak times, trains operate on demand, and to facilitate this, a button labelled "DEMAND" must be pressed by the prospective passenger. The line is free to use, and handles three million passengers per year.

After closure, the original guideway lay dormant and a temporary shuttle bus service was operated until development of a suitable replacement was found. The guideway was reused in 2003 when the replacement cable hauled Air-Rail people mover was opened.
