Coach company the Kings Ferry has launched an online booking service for commuters.

The new facility, which launches on Tuesday, March 3, allows travellers to choose between delivery or collection for an annual season ticket and redeem other ticket types on the coach with an automated booking received by email.

The new system automatically reduces the rate paid on selected tickets should a bank holiday feature in that period.

The Kings Ferry, based in Gillingham, covers 188 pick up points across 36 services in Medway, Swale and Gravesham, including Park and Ride stops.

The London service has 15 drop-off points around the city from Canary Wharf to Victoria.

Managing director Ian Fraser said: “We are continually updating our fleet of coaches and investing in new technology to provide a better service and we’re delighted to be able to offer this new service to our customers.”
