'''Vy express''', formerly '''Nettbuss express''', is a long distance [intercity coach service](/source/intercity_coach_service) owned and operated by [Vy Buss](/source/Vy_Buss) in [Norway](/source/Norway) and its Swedish subsidiary Vy Travel in [Sweden](/source/Sweden) with regular services between the countries' major cities.

Other bus services that run similar routes include [NOR-WAY Bussekspress](/source/NOR-WAY_Bussekspress) in Norway and [Swebus Express](/source/Swebus_Express) in Sweden.

Säfflebussen was acquired by the [Norwegian](/source/Norway) bus company [Nettbuss](/source/Vy_Buss) in March 2006. In January 2009 the name was changed to ''GoByBus'', and in spring of 2013 to ''Nettbuss express''. On 1 May 2013, several routes in Norway that were formerly operated as NOR-WAY Bussekspress were included into the Nettbuss express network. On 24 April 2019, it was rebranded as ''Vy express''. In 2023, the service was expanded to include departures in [Åsane](/source/%C3%85sane), [Bergen](/source/Bergen), [Haugesund](/source/Haugesund), [Stavanger](/source/Stavanger), [Kristiansand](/source/Kristiansand) and [Oslo](/source/Oslo).<ref>{{Cite web |last=Svendsen |first=Dag Atle |date=2023-06-04 |title=Nå kan du ta samme buss fra Ålgård til Bergen |url=https://www.gbnett.no/5-102-433888 |access-date=2024-07-02 |website=Gjesdalbuen |language=no}}</ref>
