If you click a link with an * to go through to a provider, we may get paid. This usually only happens if you get a product from it. This is what funds our team of journalists, and keeps us free to use. Yet there are two crucial things you need to know about this.
- This never impacts our editorial recommendations – if it's in, it's in there because we independently rate it best.
- You'll always get as good a deal (or better) than if you went direct.

Ways to save include:
- Book early and be flexible. Megabus allows you to book around four months in advance, so if you book early and are flexible with your dates and travel times – you’ve got even more chance of getting a great deal.
- Check out similar companies. Have a look at our deals from National Express, where there may be a better offer.
- Want more? Take a look at our cheap train and coach deals to see how you can save money on travel costs.
- Had a problem with Megabus? There’s a free online tool you can use to complain – it helps draft, manage and if necessary escalate your complaint. It’s offered by a firm called Resolver, which we like so much we work with it to help people get complaints justice – you can use it to complain to Megabus*.
