Eurolines

Eurolines is a coach (long distance bus) organisation, operating international bus routes within Europe to over 500 destinations in over 25 countries. Rather than being a single company, Eurolines is a network of co-operating bus companies from all over Europe, offering integrated ticketing and extensive connections. For example, in Great Britain Eurolines services are operated by the National Express Group, in Northern Ireland by Ulsterbus, and in the Republic of Ireland by the semi-state bus company, Bus Éireann. Eurolines headquarters are based in Brussels

Due to its decentralised approach, the standard of service vary between countries. In some parts of Europe, notably Lithuania, Latvia and Estonia, Eurolines is a major method of travel between neighbouring countries. In other parts of Europe international rail travel is more common and Eurolines coaches occupy a niche market of mainly overnight links.

Eurolines sell passes for unlimited travel between 45 main European cities for either 15 or 30 days under the name "Eurolines Pass".
