Stagecoach-owned megabus.com has announced a new partnership with Brighton-based transport company CrewFlyer.
Passengers travelling between Brighton and Gatwick Airport will be able to purchase tickets for travel on CrewFlyer services from megabus.com. The new services will be available 24 hours a day, seven days a week, 365 days a year.
Offering a luggage allowance of two hold bags and a hand bag or laptop bag, passengers taking the service will be offered complimentary tea, coffee, hot chocolate and cappuccino on departures from Brighton Coach Station.
Mark Venables, MD for megabus.com, said: “This is an exciting partnership for us and we’re delighted to be able to introduce this new route to our network.”
Adam Miller, MD for CrewFlyer Ltd, said: “We’re thrilled to be working with megabus.com to expand its network into Brighton. We’ve been offering our services to Gatwick staff using our fleet of new vehicles and are delighted to welcome aboard megabus.com customers and believe that with both companies’ commitment to customer service, reliability and value, customers on this route can look forward to a much improved service between Brighton and Gatwick.”
The partnership will also offer a new connecting service between Gatwick and Heathrow airports. This will enable passengers to buy tickets from Brighton to Heathrow and return using CrewFlyer from Brighton to Gatwick before changing onto a megabus.com service from Gatwick to Heathrow.
