"I'm very excited about our new Navigator service. It's going to give people who normally wouldn't be riding in a motorcoach, a great view of how nice motorcoach travel really can be," said Ray Land, president of Fabulous Coach Lines.

Single-game tickets may be purchased at park-n-ride locations on game days for $10 per person, roundtrip payable in cash or credit card. Pre-purchase of Navigator season passes are available and cost $60, offering a savings of $20. Passes are available online at Fabulous' Website. The season pass also includes transportation to Gator Growl, the world's largest student-run pep rally.

Navigator shuttle begins three hours before each home game, allowing riders to arrive early on campus in time for Gator Walk and other pre-game festivities. The last coach to the stadium departs 10 minutes before the game. Returning Navigator coaches will run from the beginning of the fourth quarter through the first hour after the game ends.

Fans can also purchase Navigator's tour packages, which include luxury motorcoach transportation, exceptional hotel accommodations and all inclusive tailgate parties for away games.
