The iconic bus route 666 has returned to Poland, once again taking passengers from Kraków to the Baltic seaside town of Hel after a two-year absence. The route number was changed to 669 in 2023 following complaints from Christian groups over its association with the "number of the beast."
Now relaunched by FlixBus, the service has quickly regained its cult appeal. Some passengers boarded simply for the novelty of travelling on bus 666 to Hel, with one joking it was the "Highway to Hell."
