In many European countries private bus operators are not allowed to compete with the public transportation system. This is the case in France, Switzerland, and the Benelux countries. This means that a bus operator like Eurolines cannot transport people within those countries, even though their buses might have several stops. In Germany the ban on domestic ...

In your case the best option is to buy a return ticket to Lund (270 kr).
It's valid for 24 hours and covers the public transport in Lund as well (trains and buses).
You can buy it with a credit card or with a Jojo card. The Jojo card gives you 20% discount of the price of a ticket. The validity of the ticket is exactly the same whether you buy it with a ...

The train trip alone costs 135 SEK one-way with Öresundståg from Kastrup to Lund C. That makes 270 in both directions, plus whatever you'll pay for bus fare (for local traffic, that's probably going to be around 100-200 SEK total, depending on where you are going). I'd definitely buy the card, it does save a lot of hassle, although admittedly not very handy ...

You can check out Eurolines and Busabout for a bus Europe travel if you're in a budget. My relatives recently traveled there but I remember they have used http://www.voyajo.com/ for their trip.

Another altenative maybe to consider the train, if of course you can find a cheap ticket or one that is similar to the price you would pay on either National Express or the other companies mentioned in Mark's answer.
Cheap train tickets is a resource zone for finding cheaper train tickets. It's packed with hidden tips and tricks for cheap rail fares.

There are a few other companies in the UK, although none are particularly great - it's not huge distances so they go for packing you in, more than anything.
Megabus - if you get tickets well in advance, they can be incredibly cheap. They also have a sleeper service from London to Glasgow/Edinburgh.
Eurolines - although as they're an associate company of ...

So there are two options.
1) You're planning on doing a Salt Flats tour, if you're going to Uyuni? Most of these run from Uyuni to San Pedro de Atacama in Chile, or vice versa, and take 3ish days. It's well worth it and you should consider that if you haven't already, as it'll make the next part really easy. Once you're in San Pedro, there are buses over ...

You've identified most of the standard options. Almost all travel between Denver and Fort Collins is by private car (as is almost all travel in general in the U.S., outside of a handful of corridors between large cities), and relatively few people are expected to take Amtrak to Denver in order to get to Fort Collins, so the schedules are not coordinated.

They have started enforcing this rule strictly especially in more popular routes. I cannot speak for the routes when the passengers are few. In my personal experience, if you have excess baggage, you can always pay for an extra ticket to the Megabus official there and they would allow your excess baggage on board, so you shouldn't have a problem.
Caveat: ...

I found a story going back to 2010 about Megabus being taken out of service for being overweight. Now while buses are normally not subject to routine weight inspections you might consider the bus being used on the route. Megabus uses double deckers like Van Hool Astromega have limited space for luggage so it is likely to be enforced pretty strictly.

According to a post on TripAdvisor by JeenaB who is from Kaliningrad tickets are only available at the station. There are 3 buses, one at 6:30am, 3:30pm, and 5:00pm. JeenaB states that the buses are rarely full so there shouldn't be anything to worry about. So it looks like the only way to get a ticket is at the bus station, but there shouldn't be any ...

I don't think the exact tool you are after exists, mainly because the bus network is just too complicated. To start with, people in London tend to use the tube and rail for longer journeys, and only use buses for local routes; and this is what the available maps are optimized for. E.g. the tfl bus maps allow you to select a bus stop and see what buses go ...

It's iPhone/Android only, but I find Citymapper easily the best routing tool for London. It does support mixed mode journeys, and there is a limited ability to customise the modes of travel - for example, I have done mixed bus/walking journeys with it in the past. I don't know if it allows you to customise the journey to the extent you want, but it does ...

You can use Google Map Engine lite.
You can create maps, draw into it and import other data from Google. More info can be found on the help page. Google has the complete bus schedules of London. You can see that if you click on any of the bus station icons and plan a transit with public transport and choose "bus" as one of the options.

There are buses. At the very least, you can get a bus 1.5 hours west to Calama, which has a bigger exchange. A member of our party did that in August (winter) and got to Antofagasta, Iquique and more.
The bus companies in Chile/Bolivia don't have much online presence - it's far easier to just get one in the town - but go as early as possible when you know ...
