Must admit I have wondered...Flixbus's growth seems unstoppable, will they perhaps at some point make a move into the UK, either by purchasing either Megabus or NatEx, or on their own? Or will Brexit put them off?
But it appears not to be available for booking for domestic journeys within the UK or countries along the route. There is a very long list of connection pairs where there is no journeys bookable below the timetable. As far as I can tell, only journeys between Romania and other countries are bookable.
Flixbus are now joining forces with PolskiBus in Poland, in a move that will see Polskibus brand merged into Flixbus before disappearing totally.
Route 1920 runs from Liverpool to Bucharest, taking two days.

Manchester Chorlton Street, Keele services, Wolverhampton, Birmingham, Coventry, Northampton services, Newport Pangell, Toddington services, London Gateway services, Wembley Park, Edmonton, Victoria Coach station, Barking, Maidstone, Folkestone and Dover.

Do people really use that? It appears to cost £72. You can fly for £20!

However, flying is a lot more expensive at short notice. Cheap flights also charge for taking large items of luggage. Flixbus are probably going for the last minute travellers priced off the plane.
