and a reference elsewhere to hotel free shuttles being scrapped in
~2003 as a result of the Hotel Hoppa part of the Freeflow scheme.

I thought that was longer ago - I have a distinct memory of going
outward on a trip on a free shuttle, and using the Hotel Hoppa on the
way back, and this was far earlier - 1996?

Maybe, but there's a dearth of evidence for this; if you can find any,
it would help.
