FlixBus reveals new partnership with Hearn’s Coaches

The UK’s fastest growing coach provider FlixBus is announcing its newest partnership with Hearn’s Coaches, launching from 12 May.

As part of its mission to ‘paint the world green’, FlixBus is unveiling the new long term collaboration with Hearn’s to run services to and from major cities including London, Leicester and Bradford from this month onwards.

Routes will stop at key destinations such as Victoria Coach Station and Finchley Road in the capital, as well as Leicester, Fosse Shopping Park, Bradford Interchange (Kirkgate) and Sheffield Meadowhall.

Services will initially operate daily, with additional coaches potentially added as demand increases for the high season this summer.

Andreas Schorling, Managing Director of FlixBus UK commented: “Our ambition to become the number one sustainable coach brand in the UK is made possible by strong partnerships with quality operators, which is why we’re delighted to welcome Hearn’s on board.”

Based in Harrow and Watford, Hearn’s has been a leading operator in Greater London for over seventy years. The company is proudly family-owned for three generations.

Jamie Thacker, Director at Hearn’s said: “We’ve been really impressed with the rapid growth FlixBus has achieved in a very short space of time here in the UK. Joining as a partner is a really exciting step for us and we expect to see strong results as consumer demand increases.

“The team in London could not have been more welcoming, offering support from the moment we began discussions. We’re looking forward to seeing what we can achieve together!”

This new partnership is the latest in a set of operator partnership announcements from affordable, sustainable coach provider FlixBus, following new domestic routes launched with Berry’s, Roselyn and McGill’s.

“FlixBus has proved to be a reliable partner for more than 500 coach companies all over Europe, and we have a clear strategy for expansion in Britain. We offer operators competitive compensation packages that incentivise good performance and high standards, while FlixBus takes on the lion’s share of risk,” adds Schorling.
