Cheap Leeds to London coach journeys from £4.99 on Flixbus with trips costing less than an Easter Egg

People can travel to London from Leeds at a cost cheaper than the average price of an Easter Egg.

Fares from coach provider Flixbus start from £2.99 and fares from Leeds to the capital are as cheap as £4.99 - the average price of an Easter Egg is predicted to be £5.18 this year.

Managing Director Andreas Schorling said travelling by coach reduces air pollution and gives the opportunity for people to travel without spending a lot of money as people start to feel the pinch of rising fuel and gas prices.

FlixBus is one of Europe’s leading coach companies and operates in over 2,500 destinations in 35 European countries. They also have 35 destinations across the UK.

Andreas said: “For the first time in three years, the people of Leeds are free to explore the UK without restriction over the Easter break, but we know that the cost of living is a concern for many at the moment.

“We believe everyone should be able to visit loved ones, explore new cities and enjoy a weekend away without breaking the bank, which is why we’re proud of our great value ticket prices, all year round.”

With climate issues high on the agenda, the bus provider also points out that coaches are the most climate-friendly way to travel long distance.

They added: “Our buses, and our ethos, are green through and through. Travelling by coach reduces air pollution, carbon emissions and road congestion, meaning there’s even more reason to choose FlixBus this Easter.”
