New Eurolines Timetable for the summer season 2013

After a long break due to a new occupation I have updated some timetables at www.EuropeBus.co.uk. Unfortunately this new job takes me a lot of time and unfortunately I am not able to carry out updates soon after the changes are made, which quite often these days introduce carriers.
At the moment I have changed only the Eurolines’ timetables. During this weekend and next week I'm going to update timetables for other countries, where connections are combined (by two different carriers or an other carrier which is offering better coach service). I'm sorry for the delay.

A few details about the new timetable introduced by Eurolines you can find below.
