A new cut-price bus service will link various UK cities to France offering a value-for-money alternatives to air travel. The new programme will provide a viable choice and help avoid airport delays and chaos that have hit travellers in recent months.
The direct routes to France will be provided by FlixBus, which already offers affordable services between UK cities. FlixBus will give consumers a new direct line to the French capital from locations across the UK.
Providing eco-friendly journeys five days a week, the new route will serve consumers in Manchester, Birmingham and Cambridge, as well as Stratford and Greenwich in London. FlixBus says the service will provide affordable international travel to consumers as they face rising costs of living and inflation.
Andreas Schorling, FlixBus UK managing director, said: "Holidays should be about exploring new places, taking a break from the norm, and above all, having fun! With rail, petrol prices and airports in chaos, going by coach is the obvious choice for reliable, enjoyable journeys this summer."
FlixBus has the largest global long distance coach network, and is increasing its UK schedules, which includes travel to more than 30 destinations across the country. Mr Schorling added: "As the world leading coach provider, we want to continue offering customers the broadest range of affordable travel options.
"This new line is a key milestone on our journey to becoming the biggest long distance coach brand in the UK market."
