"No problems have so far occurred on the Tallinn-St. Petersburg route," spokesperson for Lux Express Marina Bachmann told.
Around 270 people were traveling on the stopped buses on Monday, most of whom were Russian citizens, the company said.
Lux Express is looking for ways to get passengers to their destinations as soon as possible. By Monday evening some of the passengers had found ways to reach their destination, or the company had directed them to trains or buses traveling to Russia.
According to head of sales at Lux Express, Sander Lohmus, they have still not been able to find out why the buses were stopped, adding that the company has the necessary license to operate in Russia and Monday's news came as a surprise.
According to Lohmus they are trying to find out what happened, but have meanwhile halted ticket sales until Jan. 9. The company is to publish any news they have on the company's home page and through social media channels.
Lux Express has three departures a day on the Helsinki-St. Petersburg route.
