As shown in the 2008 bus timetable, all routes which are open top were rebranded as "Breezer", instead of "tour". From 15 May 2009, following changes to the guidelines by the Government about concessionary fares, It was announced that the Isle of Wight Council would no longer be supporting over 60s or Student Rider travel on Open Top Tour Services. Because the Open Top Tours were used more often used by island residents as an essential service, methods are being explored to reinstate free travel.
