Flixbus Discussion

How are the numbers on the 090 Glasgow-Edinburgh bus, is it still pretty much a fresh air special, how likely would it be for me to be able to just try a walk up with my NEC card and get on, as opposed to using the 900, im assuming it will be quieter than the 900. This would be for a journey heading out to Edinburgh from Glasgow tomorrow.

I seen a few 090 on Saturday. Numbers not too bad , not more than half the seats filled. I prefer the 900 and £10 return ticket.

You should have no problem using your NEC as a walk-up.

Yes, other bus services are available but £90 one way is over the odds.

Sad that they're discontinuing their Leeds-Amsterdam service. Although it seems Manchester-Paris keeps going somehow.

Wondered why their 23-plate Neoplans had started turning up on South Cambs school runs!

Interestingly one of the Flixbus Neoplans (OU22 ZWX) was used on Whippets new summer weekends service 101 between Huntingdon and Hunstanton!

What happened to the Liverpool to Hull service?

What happened to the Liverpool to Hull service?

Temporarily suspended due to lack of staff. The same has happened with the 074 Liverpool to York. Services due to resume 31st July. Belle Vue/Flix are focussing their resources into new trips (the new trips they took over on the 021 and upcoming new trips to Newcastle and London) rather than operating the services they already had.

I saw an Edinburgh bound 090 just about an hour ago on Stevenson Road, Edinburgh. It had "via Edinburgh Airport" on the destination screen, are they beginning to serve there now?

I think it was mentioned further up the thread they were going to serve the airport but pulled out.
