Budget coach company FlixBus is launching in Doncaster – with fares to London from less than £5.
The firm is celebrating its fifth anniversary in the UK with new destinations in time for Easter, with cut price tickets – with Doncaster being added to the company’s list of towns and cities across the UK it serves.
Tickets starting from just £4.49 will be available for new destinations and connections on the nationwide network.
This year, the total number of destinations on the long-distance coach network will exceed 100 towns and cities for the first time.
Promotional fares are available now until 30 April for travel between 13 April and 30 June 2026.
As of 1 April, FlixBus will launch in Doncaster, Blackpool, Halifax, Huddersfield and Milton Keynes.
Daily FlixBus services between York, Heathrow Airport and central London will also be added.
New connections between Bristol Airport and Plymouth, Taunton, Cheltenham and Exeter, as well as Leicester and Nottingham to both Plymouth and Bristol, will be available for the first time.
Brighton will see new services to Heathrow Airport, while direct connections to Leeds and Sheffield from Gatwick will launch.
FlixBus will also offer services between Manchester Airport and Newcastle, Sunderland, Middlesbrough, Leeds, Huddersfield and Bradford.
Sarah Bartlett, PR lead for FlixBus UK, said: 'Five years ago, we set out with a bold ambition to revolutionise coach travel, and with a network of over 100 destinations, it's clear passengers have fallen in love with FlixBus!'
'We're offering tickets for less than a fiver to bring even more joy to travellers using our affordable, comfortable and reliable services.'
FlixBus continues its growth in May, with Colchester, Chelmsford and Ipswich joining the network as well as more direct connections to London and Oxford from Birmingham Airport.
East Anglia's connections will also see a boost, with new services between Norwich and Heathrow, as well as to Birmingham and Plymouth.
Since launching in the UK in 2021, FlixBus has grown to a network spanning over 100 destinations across England, Scotland and Wales.
