(22 Sep 2021, 5:38 pm)Adrian Having a quick look at prices, I'd say National Express are already napping. The FlixBus fares are extremely good value and provide a good option for Loooooooooooooooooovel to those on a budget.

I'm not so sure, because at least the NX work is guaranteed income for GNE. The same cannot be said about locals, sadly. I'd suggest dropping the odd run on a 21 or X1, due to sickness, isn't impacting on the takings.

We're going on a trip down to Leeds to see a show next month, and out of Megabus, FlixBus and NatEx, Flixbus was obviously the cheapest, but it was just one journey a day each way, NatEx was only maybe £3 more per person but had the best times. Megabus seem to have shot up in price compared to when we used to use them in the past.

In the end, we decided to just get the train because it was only £1 more each, and with the railcard it actually worked out cheaper.
