FlixBus has announced an expansion of its presence in Alberta with the introduction of a new, direct route connecting Calgary and the Kannaskis region.
The new route will include stops in Kananaskis Village, Stoney Nakoda Resort and Casino, and the Nakiska Ski Area once it launches on November 29.
Running seven days per week with two trips per day into February; the route aims to provide a budget-friendly travel option for reaching the region ahead of the peak season.
The route will stop at the following locations:
- Calgary International Airport
- Calgary Downtown
- Calgary Crowfoot
- Stoney Nakoda Resort & Casino/Event Centre
- Kananaskis Village
- Nakiska Ski Area
Karina Frayter, Head of Communications at Flix North America, said:Winter travel plans can look very different depending on who you are, whether that’s a solo traveler flying in for a quick ski weekend, a family planning a holiday vacation, or friends meeting up for a long weekend.
What they all have in common is the need for a simple, reliable way to get from the city to the mountains. This route cuts out a lot of the friction that usually comes with that part of the trip and gives travelers a more direct, dependable connection to the region.
Passengers will have access to free Wi-Fi, power outlets and modern interiors. Tickets for the new route are on sale now.
