European express coach operator has given notice to Stagecoach that it is ending its contract. This includes its Megabus services from the UK to the continent. Stagecoach is “in discussions with FlixBus about the specific timing of any changes.”
In a statement, Stagecoach says: "Since July 2016, we have operated a number of inter-city coach services between the UK and mainland Europe under contract to FlixBus.
“We have now received notice from FlixBus that it no longer requires us to operate these services on its behalf.
"We have met with trade union representatives to discuss the implications for the people we employ on this contract work.
“We appreciate this will be unsettling news for the employees involved and as a matter of course we will be keeping them regularly updated.
“Megabus.com services in the UK, which we continue to operate directly, are not affected by this development."
