A coach operator has launched buses to Paris from a number of UK cities, just in time for the summer holidays. The first international route to ever serve the North West and Midlands, FlixBus will offer consumers a new direct line to the French capital overnight.
Running five days a week, the new route will serve Manchester, Birmingham and Cambridge, as well as Stratford and Greenwich in London.
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 says it provides eco-friendly journeys which reduce CO2 emissions by nine compared to going by plane or by six compared to car. FlixBus has the largest global long-distance coach network, and is increasing its offering to the UK, including travel to over 30 destinations across the country.
Schorling adds: “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."
Tickets can be purchased from www.flixbus.co.uk or the FlixBus App.
