FlixBus expands UK network with new services for Cambridge to Heathrow, Luton and Swindon

Leading travel tech company FlixBus, has announced the launch of a brand-new route linking Cambridge and Luton Airport (DART Parkway), Heathrow Airport and Swindon.

From Monday, 3 November, services will travel twice daily in each direction, with tickets starting at just £4.49.

The route introduces new direct affordable, and sustainable coach services for Cambridge, Luton and Swindon to London Heathrow Airport 

Luton Airport (via DART Parkway) will be a new destination on the FlixBus network map, linking seamlessly to the airport via the DART. 

Extra services will also be added to the London, Gatwick and Brighton route from Cambridge, meaning six a day in each direction.

With direct links to Gatwick, Luton and Heathrow airports, FlixBus is aiming to make intercity and international travel more accessible and comfortable.

FlixBus includes luggage in its ticket price, while travellers save money avoiding fuel costs and airport parking charges.

Andreas Schorling, Senior Managing Director of FlixBus UK, said: “Expanding the FlixBus UK network to include Luton will open up great travel options for passengers, as well as offering new direct connections to Heathrow and Gatwick from Cambridge.

“Demand for great-value, high-quality coach travel continues to rise, and we are the only brand able to deliver for the people of Great Britain.”

The company provides sustainable transport alternatives, as switching from car to coach can reduce an individual's carbon footprint by up to 83%[1] and remove up to 30 cars from the road.

FlixBus continues to scale rapidly in the UK with over 80 cities and towns in the UK., offering hundreds of connections across England, Scotland and Wales through partnerships with local coach operators.

“We have been disrupting the market since day one, and we see market leadership as an inevitability,” concluded Schorling.

Tickets are on sale now, available via the FlixBus app and www.flixbus.co.uk
