Dear Laura,
Thank you for your message. There are bus connections available directly from the airport which travel to Vera Playa via the FlyBus shuttle service, however, please note that the departure times are subject to demand. For a more fixed service, you can travel from the airport to Almeira central station and take a bus to Vera via Alsa. You can find and compare all available bus connections by entering the route in the CheckMyBus search engine. If you have any further questions, then please feel free to get in touch with us again.

The trip “Forfar to Edinburgh” which uses the M9 megabus, from Forfar with a change at Broxden to G90 Citylink to carry on to Edinburgh. This appears to be missing from your schedules?

Mr Ceri Jones
There is a Bus Service from Seville to the Algarve jointly run by EvaBus and Damas. It departs Seville at 16.15 but does not appear in your Listing. I know it still exists and am contacting you to find out if it is possible to book it through yourselves. Our travel date is 4th October and when we used it last year I became aware that it could not be booked until 4 days before the date of departure, which is fine, but I ran a ‘check Search’ and I am wondering why you do not List it for a departure on Monday 23rd Sept. The EvaBus website confirms a 16.15 departure on 4th October, but the transfer from Spain cannot be booked through them, only through Damas. Can you help please? regards. Ceri Jones
CheckMyBus-Support
Dear Ceri,
Thanks for reaching out. We are happy to help however we need more details. The Algarve region is very big and to be more effective we need to know which city in The Algarve you’re traveling to so we can search for the bus service. Are you traveling directly to Faro? Or another city? As you say, Damas offers this service, as other bus companies as well, for example Flixbus offers a trip from Seville to Faro and Rede Expressos offers this service too, but for us to be able to give you better information, we ask you to please tell us which exact city you want to arrive to. Alternatively you can go to our website checkmybus.co.uk and in the search field simply write in the city of departure, city of arrival, date, number of passengers and click on Search, you’ll then be redirected to the available options.
Kind regards,

I will be in Bournemouth on Wed, 9th. October and I wish to travel, by bus, to Weymouth. Can you advise me with regard to the following:-
Departure times from Bournemouth am. and from Weymouth pm. please?
Am I required to pre-book, or can I jut turn up at the bus stop on the day?
I am in possession of a Pensioner’s concession bus pass issued by my local authority. Is this bus pass valid for the journeys indicated above?
CheckMyBus-Support
Dear Anthony,
Thank you for your message. There are bus connections between Bournemouth and Weymouth on 9 October starting from £4.00. As for your pensioner card, National Express offers its own program for pensioners which must be applied for and you’ll need to check with the company directly to see if you’ll need this version or can you use your card. If you have any further questions, then please feel free to get in touch with us again.

Hi I cannot get a flight out to Murcia from the uk on the dates that I want to go ( Nov 22nd returning Nov 27th)
So my only option is to fly to Alicante then take a bus from there to Murcia
I have absolutely not a clue how to do this and would appreciate your help .
Is the bus terminal inside Alicante airport ?
Are the buses to Murcia every 2 hours ?
So I could buy a ticket online now then get on the bus outside the airport
Thanks
Sharon shaw
CheckMyBus-Support
Dear Sharon,
Thank you for your message. Buses travel directly from the Alicante Airport, so you should be able to travel directly from the airport to Murcia. These buses run on a fixed schedule, however, and tend to operate roughly ten times a day, so we’d suggest booking in advance to secure your trip. Always be sure to leave yourself enough time to pass through airport security so you’ll have enough time to make your bus. If you have any further questions, then please feel free to get in touch with us again.
Best regards,

my partner is onboard 1600 from Victoria to b0urnemouth she has been told 3.5 hours trip time your pc info says nearly 1 hour shorter . which is correct please?
CheckMyBus-Support
Dear T Sanford,
Thank you for your message. From where did she receive the information that the trip’s duration would be longer? The information displayed on our search engine comes directly from our bus partner’s websites and unless the travel time has increased due to extenuating circumstances, this should be the most accurate time. If you have any further questions, then please feel free to get in touch with us again.

Trying to find coaches/buses from Gloucester city centre to Oxford. According to your site it seems that the journey, using a National Express coach & marked as the fastest service, takes OVER FIVE HOURS?? Is this really accurate? Could easily drive to Edinburgh in that time.
CheckMyBus-Support
Dear O. Smith,
Thank you for your feedback. All the information regarding bus duration and price comes directly from our partner bus companies. Bus duration can vary from day to day, and the extended time could be due to changeovers and stops. For example on 29 September, the quickest trip between these two cities is 3 hours 55 minutes. If you have any further questions, please feel free to get in touch with us again.

I have a senior bus pass and want to travel on any day, from Stratford on Avon Warwickshire at approx 9.00 a.m to Birmingham and to return at approx 6.00 p.m Can you help me please?
CheckMyBus-Support
Dear Christine,
Thank you for your message. You will need to check with the bus company you would like to travel with to know whether your senior pass will be valid. Many intercity coach companies, such as National Express, which is the primary coach company that provides this route, have their own senior discounts which need to be purchased. There are connections travelling from Bidon-on-Avon and Warwick Railway Station around 18:15 and 18:25 which should be reachable via public transport from Stratford-upon-Avon.
