In a heartfelt tribute to the Armed Forces community, Stagecoach has announced free travel on its bus and tram services (excluding Megabus, TFL, and the Bee network) across the UK on Armed Forces Day. This initiative, scheduled for Saturday 29th and Sunday 30th June, extends to serving personnel in uniform, individuals carrying a military ID card, and veterans proudly displaying a medal or veteran’s badge.

Armed Forces Day, celebrated on Saturday 29th June, is a time for the public to show appreciation for the men and women of the Armed Forces community, including serving troops, Service families, veterans, and cadets.
Stagecoach bus companies nationwide will offer free travel on both Saturday 29th and Sunday 30th June to serving personnel in uniform, those carrying a military ID card, and veterans with a medal or veteran’s badge.
Additionally, Stagecoach provides free bus travel annually for veterans and military personnel on Remembrance Day and Remembrance Sunday.
The initiative is supported by Stagecoach’s employee-led Veterans Network, established to unite colleagues in advocating for change, raising awareness, and influencing business decisions to strengthen the company.
Since March 2015, Stagecoach has been a proud member of the Armed Forces Covenant, recognising the invaluable contributions of serving personnel, regular and reservists, veterans, and military families to the nation and businesses nationwide.
“We are extremely proud and honoured to confirm free travel for all serving personnel, veterans, and cadets on the 29th and 30th June throughout the UK. This is our ongoing commitment to the wider armed forces community and a privilege to honour those serving personnel, veterans, cadets, and their families. This is the least we could do to honour those that serve and represent the armed forces community.”
