With Christmas travel plans in disarray thanks to numerous rail strikes being planned this festive season and finances being stretched than ever before, a new reliable and cheap travel solution has emerged in the form of Flixbus.
A global travel tech brand, with services across Europe, USA and Brazil, and promoting itself as the UK’s fastest growing coach provider, Flixbus offers tickets from as little as £2.99. Passengers on these shores can enjoy journeys to some of the most popular Christmas Market destinations in the UK, such as Birmingham, Edinburgh and the Southbank centre.
The company is increasing the frequency of its journeys to and from major cities including London, Nottingham, Northampton, Leicester, Manchester, Liverpool, Leeds, Stoke-on-Trent, Birmingham, Bristol, Reading, Plymouth, Exeter and Taunton this festive season, as well as adding more options to and from Paris. Travellers can find coach routes to over 40 UK cities and towns, with many services available across the whole festive period, including Christmas Day, Boxing Day, New Year’s Day and surrounding bank holidays.
Andreas Schorling, managing director of FlixBus UK said: “Consumers have been forced to cope with dramatically increasing prices of food and fuel this year, but no one need miss out on seeing their loved ones.
“FlixBus is giving the gift of sustainable, reliable, affordable transport, and our coaches will be running over Christmas and bank holidays, giving more people than ever the chance to meet and celebrate the season!”
Flixbus nearly doubled its passengers between April and September of this year compared to 2021, while it’s parent company, Flix, transported over 34 million people across the world this summer across its FlixBus and FlixTrain brands.
Schorling added: “The popularity of FlixBus has been overwhelming this year and our mission to become the largest coach provider in the UK within the next five years is well underway.”
