Aside from the cities mentioned above, OnniBus MEGA buses stop at numerous other places but unlike OnniBus Flex branded buses, they do not stop at all express stops on the way. Passengers can board and leave the bus only at predetermined stops, often located at city and town centres or highway junctions. This practice cuts travel times whilst also making business more profitable according to the company.
