Eurolines is a brand of intercity bus service owned by an international non-profit organisation formed under Belgian law.[1] Using the Eurolines brand, partner bus companies operate service in Europe and Morocco.
Eurolines was founded in 1985. Its forerunner was the Europabus brand network created by the Union des Services Routiers des Chemins de Fer Européens (URF), a consortium of 11 European national railway companies, in 1951.[2]
In April 2019, the Eurolines operating businesses in France, The Netherlands, Belgium, Czech Republic and Spain, and the Isilines brand, all of which were formerly owned by Veolia Transport and later Transdev, were acquired by Flixbus.[6]
In July 2020, Eurolines operators in France were placed into compulsory liquidation by a French court.[7]
