FlixBus adding CK stop to Toronto-bound trips

An inter-city bus company is expanding its Windsor-Toronto line with a new stop in Chatham-Kent beginning this week.

FlixBus will be adding a stop in Chatham on Thursday.

FlixBus launched its Ontario network in April 2022 and cross-border service between the U.S. and Canada in May 2022. The company launched a new line to Windsor in August.

"Chatham-Kent represents the first expansion of this line with service six days per week (excluding Wednesdays) on a line that includes Windsor, Chatham-Kent, London, Hamilton, Toronto and Scarborough," FlixBus officials said through a media release.

Chatham-Kent to Toronto trips will depart from the FlixBus stop at 22216 Bloomfield Road in Chatham in front of the Esso gas station at 9:45 a.m. on service days and arrive in Toronto by 1:50 p.m.

Riders heading westward from Toronto will depart at 3:30 p.m. and arrive back in Chatham-Kent by 8:10 p.m.

"With tickets starting as low as $32, this is a great new intercity transit option to consider for Ontario residents and travellers," the media release stated.
