paxboy all those things beyond the scope of BAcityflyer, you are confusing them with BA! Its okay saying get coaches straight away but sometimes thats just not possible in the timeframe available, the flying time from MAD would be in the region of 2 hours 20 mins, and yes Cityflyer would have coach firms they could call upon but the coach firm would need time to react as well and get coaches to STN, and all this would be taking place during rush hour so the 2 hours 20 mins flying time could be quicker than you could get coach transport in situ.
