FlixBus launching new routes from Swindon for first time



FlixBus is celebrating its fourth anniversary in the UK (United Kingdom) by introducing new routes and destinations, including Swindon.

The travel tech brand is also offering £4 tickets on these new routes.

The new routes will bring the total number of destinations on the network to more than 80.

The £4 tickets will be available for travel between April 23 and June 30.

Looking at Swindon, the weekday timetable has four coaches a day between London, Swindon, Cheltenham and Gloucester, (three on Sundays), perhaps that's the new service that involves Swindon.

(Flixbus's web site's 'Network map' is actually a map of their destinations rather than their routes, so it takes a while to find that the route between say Cardiff and Swindon isn't quite sensible - it involves a change at Heathrow).
