Eurocoaches joins FlixBus

Eurocoaches is the latest operator to partner with FlixBus.

The Bristol-based operator is to begin operating routes in the West of England for FlixBus from April 2025.

Eurocoaches will operate a Volvo on the network, adding another vehicle to the total of over 200 FlixBus coaches planned to be on the road by this summer.

Alongside the UK’s hypergrowth, Flix recently announced its expansion into new markets, Peru and Mexico, this year.

“Coach travel has stood the test of time, and we are now proudly representing its future” – Andreas Schorling, Managing Director of FlixBus

Andreas Schorling, Managing Director of FlixBus, said: “Recently we celebrated the anniversary of the first scheduled coach route between Bristol and London, which launched 100 years ago.

“Coach travel has stood the test of time, and we are now proudly representing its future, growing our network with operators like Eurocoaches to bring high quality services to the next generation.”

Eurocoaches launched in 1980 and is proudly family-run as the largest minibus hire and coach hire operator in Bristol and the South West.

“The FlixBus team, particularly Josh Eeles, FlixBus Senior Development Manager, have been brilliant” – William Sanzo, Director of Eurocoaches

William Sanzo, Director of Eurocoaches said: “We are excited to be growing with FlixBus as the smarter, greener express network. We have wanted to join for some time, and this spring is the right time for both businesses.

“The FlixBus team, particularly Josh Eeles, FlixBus Senior Business Development Manager, have been brilliant, and we have built a great relationship. We foresee a fantastic future together in partnership.”

Andreas Schorling added: “FlixBus is driving the renaissance of coach, with passengers of all ages and backgrounds trying our services and returning to them.

“We have every reason to be positive as we grow our network as we approach our 4th year in the UK, and we are excited to roll out our services, with the support of our operator partners, to more than 80 destinations.”
