This bus services charges entirely to much for the low quality of service they give , paying 100$ + for a bus ride or more, to still have to ride a filthy stinky bus & get terrible service. So not worth it , go to Vonlane or Red Coach . They should have better drivers who don't harass their customers because there miserable. This driver harassed the shit out of me about a backpack, that was the correct size for a Carry on , I intentionally bought it to carry on . Because the backpack was full he felt like it should go under the bus , I told him no , it's the correct size to carry on . The he harassed everyone the entire ride about seats & everything else . He's a terrible driver & needs to be removed.

First time using Flixbus; I travel frequently. Terrible service. Non functioning bathroom on a 5 hour ride. Useless customer service. Bus was running late; calling to check on the bus means hearing a robot give me instructions and ask me to make multiple selections before I can even talk to someone. Finally bus arrived, and we left1 hour late. Driver was grouchy at me before even getting on, asked me if I had paid for my luggage (I did; the default ticket price includes one undercarriage bag and one carry on) and singled me out, insisted on seeing what was inside my bag and lecturing me about not spilling my water bottle before letting me on. Other passengers had food and drinks they were actively eating so I don't know why I was singled out. He didn't notify me about the bathroom not working until I tried it while en route and found it was locked. He then scolded me for not knowing it wasn't working and not using the bathroom at our departure location. Overall just a bad experience so I wanted at least 50% of the fare back as I have a medical need to have access to a bathroom and was treated poorly by the driver. I contacted customer service through their chat (they don't have an email and you can't talk to someone on the phone) and was told that I'd get a 20% off voucher for my next ride. I said that this was unacceptable because after my experience I have no desire to ride with them again. Was told they can't refund my money because I completed the ride. There was no other option for me to get home and if I'm forced to use their (not fully functioning) services you'd think they'd be understanding that they didn't provide their usual service so I shouldn't be charged full price. Was denied that there was anything else I could be compensated with. Asked to speak to a manager. Told one was unavailable and that their team would be contacting me soon. Never heard back from them, so I went to chat with an agent again. Same feedback but instead of being offered a voucher, was shut down and repeatedly told they were "sorry" for my experience. I asked to speak to their superior and they said it was impossible. Then they said they were sorry for the experience and ended the chat. Their online feedback form on their website is ridiculously hard to access, and there's no way to contact them besides chatting with an agent. Overall there's no accountability whatsoever and no attempt to make sure their customers are treated with dignity. They don't convey that they value anything about customers other than our money. Absolutely do not recommend. Greyhound, Amtrak, Megabus--they all accommodate you when something goes wrong. Flixbus simply DOES NOT CARE. read more

Would give 0 stars if I could. Bus was delayed by over two hours, so had to take a very expensive cab ride to the airport an hour and a half away. Cab cost $150 dollars. I get it, shit happens not mad about the bus being delayed. Flixbus would not give me a refund, only offered a voucher. Don't use flixbus. Horrible customer service, and shady refund policies. read more

My experience has been always good with Flixbus but I think it only takes one horrible experience to really sour my impression of this company. I bought a ticket for my mom to visit me from LA to Las Vegas. She waited in the station indicated in the ticket. 15 minutes later she was still waiting but as she saw about 12 people also waiting she figured the bus was just running late. When she contacted me I checked my email to see if there was a notice and I saw one I had just received saying the bus couldn't pick passengers up where it had originally confirmed and it now was waiting on a corner one block away. I told my mom right away and her and the other people still waiting headed to this new address but alas by the time they got there the bus was gone (They arrived to this corner 9 minutes after I had received the email). I immediately contacted customer service who wasn't very helpful because after asking me 10 questions about the ticket, the email used, the amount paid, the date i purchased this from, the phone # I used, etc which were all answered correctly since I had bought the ticket, they told me they couldn't help me with anything else and that any information could only be provided to the passenger directly. I had been on hold for 20 minutes before being able to talk to someone so I could talk to someone and after interrogating me they said I couldn't provide any feedback, info or do anything for my mom. The person who was talking to me was not helpful and I don't think they were the most fluent in English so It added to my frustration level as you can imagine. I ended up having to call again and say I was my mom so I could get a refund and book another ticket departing from downtown LA instead 3 hrs later from the original time. How this could have been handled: -Send a mass email/call/text to everyone who was supposed to take the bus on that station to let them know of their options if they miss the bus -Give some kind of discount for the trouble to those affected -If this ever happens again give people a call about the change in pick up location and give them at least 20 minutes to go to the new location. 8 minutes is jut not acceptable. read more

I have had very good riding experience with this company, but I am totally bummed out that a cancellation of $40 for $89 tickets purchased and canceled all within less than 24 hours. Calling their toll free number to complain as well as question the charges, Benjamin the agent, tells me "he is at the highest point of escalation" He has no manager or supervisor according. I stayed on the telephone line for greater than an hour trying to speak to a supervisor. I also went the website chat to no avail. Unsatisfactory!! read more

FLIXBUS IS THE ABSOLUTE worst transportation company in the USA. It's cheap for many reasons. Booked a ticket for 7am. Arrived at the location around 5am. The Bus comes rolling through never stops to pickup passengers. Customer service had the nerve to say all other passengers boarded the bus & that we were late. This is not the way to treat your customers.. DON'T EVER BOOK WITH FLIXBUS customer service reps. are a bunch of rude liars. They are not willing to work with you & find another bus. They said the bus was there and left at 7:05am. NOT TRUE Do yourself a favor book with any bus company not affiliated with FLIXBUS. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND NOT SPENDING YOUR HARD EARNED MONEY ON FLIXBUS.... if it were possible to submit without a star I would.. However I would give it -100 read more

Stranded AGAIN! I have booked about 10 buses and only ridden 5. I have used the same voucher from a canceled bus over and over because my buses keep getting canceled. Sometimes it's a few days ahead, one time it was after the bus was scheduled to arrive, and this time was about 30 min before. This is a real treat because I got one email that said it was canceled and then another one that said it was delayed. When I called customer service, they struggled to identify what was happening. Now I get to spend a bunch of money figuring out another way home from the airport. Absolutely the worst!!! read more

My wife and I we live in New Hampshire her mom and father live in Lebanon Pennsylvania, Her grandmother visiting from Puerto Rico we're invited to come to New Hampshire for Thanksgiving celebration. My wife has not seen her family in two years and was excited to celebrate and host Thanksgiving dinner for her family. Her family is low income do not possess credit cards, nor do they own a vehicle. We could not rent a car for them, so my wife chose to pay for them more than a week salary $522.93 Flixbus to book a 3 AM bus to Boston from Philadelphia two hours from their home. They secure their two hour ride and encountered an accident on the highway, which prevented them from making the bus on time. This trash company would not allow ticket exchanges refunds or no solution to accommodate whatsoever. Even a half price nothing go screw yourself happy Thanksgiving. We Did not even want a refund just the next bus available. Understandably, this is not their fault for the missed bus but this is not a single operated one bus company no remorse no system in place for these types of situations with a big corporation so if you want to spend your hard earned money and encounter problems in life and have them take your money feel free to use them because I'm sure if their bus was late and broke down and was in the same accident they would tell you to go screw in the same way they told us. They should be ashamed of them selves. Use them at your own risk of losing all your money. I am a manager at the Home Depot and I give away far more money for such smaller problems with more remorse and compassion to take care of customers they don't care about their customers whatsoever. read more

Truly terrible. Of the 5 trips from Ellensburg to Portland, 2 were canceled the day of (including today, the day before Thanksgiving, marooning our son to be by himself on the holiday). And the best part is: although Flexibus canceled the trip, we are only eligible for a voucher for a future canceled trip. If you have ANY OTHER travel option, do yourself a favor and take it. read more

Horrible. I booked a bus with them so I could get back to the airport after a bike tour. No information on the booking about how to add the bike to the reservation. When I called in they said I now could not bring a bike and they would not refund the ticket price. Absolutely horrible company. read more

Terrible. No information on ticket on where to find bus. No phone number for support. I finally found the info on a page of the website. Waited 45 minutes outside for the bus and never saw a FlixBus come. Found out it had come and gone with no announcement, no name written on the bus, and no way to know. Wrote to customer support who said it was my fault I missed it and no refund would apply. Multiple other passengers in the exact same boat as me. Never booking again. read more

I made the horrible mistake of reserving a ticket with FlixBus. I reserved a ticket to to arrive back home for a wedding, and one hour before my booked departure, they cancel. I look for other alternatives and there are none. I will never book with FlixBus again and I URGE you to do the same. read more

Cheap tickets = Cheapest quality of service + non-refundable taxes Our bus was supposed to leave at 7:30pm and we were asked to be at the venue 30min early. After 45 min waiting, we got an SMS saying the bus is delayed by 45 min. We had now waited for 1.5hrs. There was absolutely nobody we could talk to at the venue. They have a namesake counter that was locked an unmanned. Multiple flixbuses came and dropped people off and went and all those drivers said they don't know, they can't help. On calling customer care which got connected after 20min, we were rudely told the refund will be issued only of the bus is 2hrs late and they don't know the reason for the delay, they also don't know when it was going to come or if it was going to come at all. The tracking link never worked. After waiting for 2.5 hrs, we never got notified that the bus was not going to turn up. We made different arrangements at 11:30pm in the night. My very senior parents had to sit on the dirty sidewalk all this while - hungry and tired of walking in NYC. I would give them minus 10 stars if I could. read more

note: I am based in Louisiana, where our bus infrastructure is not great. you would think there would be incentive to provide good bus service! But alas. i booked a trip a month in advance and they cancelled the return trip 3 days before. okay, no big deal, it happens. Then they cancelled my departure trip THE MORNING OF. this is just unacceptable. the only reason i'm not giving a one star is because it's super easy to cancel and get a refund or rebook. just wish it wasn't so last minute because the alternative trips don't work, so now i have to scramble. read more

Great way to travel. I had a short trip from Sarasota to Ft Myers. Seats had head rests and foot rests. Very comfy. Restroom at the back. Driver great. Would now take them anywhere. Prices armrest good too! Much cheaper then driving your own car. Wi-Fi worked but couldn't watch my show that I previously downloaded. Also, everything on time! read more

Flixbus is a most dishonest bus company, unreliable and lie to the passenger. After Flixbus representative made a mistake and resulting I missed my bus, they instead of correct their mistake, they lied to me and the company won't even care about their dishonesty, and told me that I have to pay for all the damages. I have missed my connecting bus to London at Lille, it was caused by the wrong information given by Flixbus Chief Lille. When I was at the Lille bus stop at 2:35pm and asked the Flixbus Chief Lille, about the bus information ( the bus to London departure at 2:45), he told me that the bus was not here yet, most bus drive doesn't speak English, also the Bus Stop is at the street of outside of train station, there was no monitor or any other information for the bus arriving or departure, so Flixbus Chief Lille was the only person who I can depend on, he asked me to sit down and wait. About 15 minutes later, he came to me and told me that the bus has left. he said that he made an announcement, but it was in French, I don't speak French, so I didn't know that the bus was actually parked there already. The Flixbus Chief admitted that he had made a mistake on this bus, so he called the Flixbus dispatch and see if the bus could stop at any of gas stations, I would take the taxi there because the bus just took off about 5 minutes, the dispatch told him that they would contact the bus driver and ask him to turn around to pick me up. I waited about 1.5 hour, and there was no bus coming back, so I asked the Flixbus Chief again, he tried to book me another bus for 18:10, but he could book that bus, so he called the dispatch again, after he spoke to the Flixbus dispatch, he told me that they couldn't book me for another bus, the solution is that I should buy a Eurostar train ticket, after I arrived in London, I should send both tickets ( bus and Train to Flixbus, they will refund me both ticket money. I asked him again that is for sure, he said to me with booking number, there will be all the explanation from his supervisor, so the flixbus will certainly refund my money. He wrote me an email address and his title for this refound. After I wrote email to Flixbus customer service,and verifying from Flixbus Chief Lille, they refused to refund my money and told me that it is just too bad that this has happened to me. read more

If I could I would put an even lower rating on this company. The worst costumer service ever!! We had a bus ticket from Biarritz to San Sebastian that was suppose to leave at 10.55 and we got to the station 20 minutes before departure. Then we got an email and text message saying the bus was 56 minutes delayed. Went in for a coffee and came back out and noticing the bus had left 3 minutes after set time. We asked for money back, but after a lot of hassle we only got 1 out of 2 tickets back minus the fee. This after about 8-9 emails back and forth trying to explain how stupid their system is and that we missed the bus ONLY because of their own message about delay. Ending up loosing a significant small amount of money to a company that probably running the traffic in hell. The worst kind of company that I only wish their prices wasn't that tempting... read more

Recently took a trip up to NYC and the bus smelled horrible. Every time someone opened the bathroom door, you'd get hit with a wave of disgusting smells from the toilet. They don't have outlets so if you have the newer c type charger...you're shit outta luck. The bus was also an hour late so i was standing outside from 12:50 am until around 2:20 am and the only thing they gave me was a "referral" that only took off like $6 on another trip. Customer service is also terrible. NYC had a really bad flood recently (so bad that news stations from other states were talking about it. My friends from other countries heard about it. A lot of brooklyn, were i was staying at, was totally and completely underwater) and i told the customer service agent that it would be far too unsafe for me to travel to the bus stop (and because the trains and city buses were literally flooded, making it impossible to travel unless you were already in chinatown earlier that morning) and all they told me was "the system says everything is fine" despite me telling them it is LITERALLY unsafe for me to travel to the bus stop. They also told me "everyone made it to the bus stop" which sounds...odd because obviously everyone didn't if i couldn't even get there? Like i said, the only way people could have all "gotten" there was if they were already in Chinatown to begin with. My family lives in brooklyn so obviously i wouldn't be just strictly in lower manhattan. Tried canceling my ticket and they wanted me to pay $35 just for canceling the ticket. Tried getting a refund but apparently the only way you can get a refund is if the bus is delayed more than two hours or the bus company themselves cancel the trip. That's a really shitty policy when it comes to literal natural disasters. And yes, i did send customer service screenshots and photos of what was happening in NYC during that day but they still refused to let me cancel for free or even refund me my money. That is utterly ridiculous and they need to review and change their terms and conditions. What happens when another natural disater happens in another state they have to drive to? Are they just going keep driving through no matter what? They very clearly don't care about anything besides money. Avoid them and either take the Greyhound, Amtrak, or a plane. read more

We travelled for 2h45m on flexi bus. It's cheap and was there on time. However our seat wasn't even attached to the seat frame. It was completely loose and could be picked up off the frame with no effort. The driver was informed and after Looking at it for a minute says it's plastic and then goes on n his way. So my wife sits in this seat for the entire ride. If an accident were to happen would she have been ok? Why wasn't this issue taken seriously? 1 star cause your main priority should be customer safety and this ride was not safe. Shame on you read more

This bus company is absolutely horrible. The bus came and left over 30 minutes early. I have called customer service and there was NO supervisor to help me. I booked a ticket from my brother and because that bus came and left over half an hour early he is going to miss his dialysis. He can die because of this! I have no money to book another trip for him to go home. This is completely unacceptable. My brother is also blind. We were given no notice the bus cam early. I'm their contract it states to be 15 minutes early and we were 20 minutes early. But that didn't matter. If my brother dies it will be on this companies hands. I was on the phone with customer service for over an hour and NO supervisor was available. This is unacceptable. If my brother dies it will be on this company! read more

Would give zero stars if I could. They gave me the wrong bus number so we missed our bus. Refused to give us a refund or replacement tickets. So I canceled our tickets with them for the next day cuz they said we could REFUND THEM. Turns out by refund they mean we get half the money and the other half they gave us a "voucher" with the rest on it. So that's gone cuz I'm never using them again. Oh and I got a $30 phone bill added on from trying to contact their customer service who basically told me to go fuck myself. DO NOT TRUST THEM. read more

I was not riding a FlixBus, but I have a very serious safety concern. in the harbor tunnel in Baltimore, MD, at 0505 this morning, bus numbered 2908 switched lanes across the double lines in the tunnel and forced me to slam on brakes. is there no requirement for the drivers to follow legal traffic laws, or is it a case of might makes right, he is bigger so he can do what he wants? I think this is a very poor example in trying to make customers want to ride. if that is how their drivers are trained, I will ensure I and my family do not entrust our safety to a company displaying such a blatant disregard to clear traffic laws and disregard for the safety of motorists around them. read more

Bought a 10am bus, bus arrived at 10:30, when passenger asked if it was the bus to his location the driver called him dumb and said that was a stupid question. Driver made jokes during prolonged speech then told us service would be held up an additional 20 minutes for the bus to be repaired, while three other buses waited to go to other destinations in an hour, but no switch was made. bus was late, driver was rude to polite customers, bud didn't work. Awful experience read more

I can't say what a FlixBus looks like because they cancelled our trip there less than 24 hours before and changed our return booking home from 5 pm to 11 am the same day with 1 day warning (during which we had no signal). They have cost me money to not take me anywhere. There is no accessible customer service line - they don't want to take you to your destination nor hear about it when they fail to. I will never book with FlixBus again and I will tell my loved ones to avoid them to. I recognize they are cheap, but so are literally all the other bus companies (Arriva, BlaBlaCar, etc) and those ones actually run when they are supposed to. DO NOT rely on Flix. read more

The Flix Bus is an absolute joke. It's so inconsistent and gives riders no grace period even if THE BUS is late and not you. I've had several experiences where I show up right on time and the bus is already gone. The most ironic part is that the bus expects you to show up early but has a tendency to arrive late. When you try to compensate for this, they're so inconsistent they will just straight up leave you. I got a notification once that the bus was going to be 20-30 minutes late so when I accommodated my schedule around this, the bus already left. The bus drivers have a roster and know that there are people that need to get on but they stubbornly dictate their own schedule. A joke of a company when people rely on this transportation. read more

I booked the ticket on the app. I stood in line. The driver was not able to scan my ticket from the app. Even though he saw that I purchased a ticket he did not allow me on the bus. I have tried calling and emailing Flixbus repeatedly to receive a refund. I cannot get an answer. They claim they are "investigating" but no one will respond on the status. It has been weeks. read more

The Flixbus website is set up to trick people out of their money if they have to cancel a trip and want a refund. The small print indeed states that refunds are available, but if you navigate through the main page to "cancel and change" you will only be able to get a voucher, NOT your money back. However, it is not made clear that there is no option to choose between a voucher and getting money back. Indeed, the page suggests that vouchers are only there to be used for CHANGING bookings - not in lieu of a refund if you want to CANCEL. The site is unclear, and you may very well end up getting a voucher before it's too late. And nowhere is the ACTUAL procedure for getting a refund made clear (viz. writing a separate email using a different part of the site). If Verflixtbus were honest about having decent customer service, they would include the cash refund procedure in their FAQ and rename the main page on their website "change booking" (with no mention of cancellation). The fact they don't do that shows that they wish to trick people out of money. I've written back and forth to these people many times, explaining my honest mistake (and expressing the fact that their site is somewhat deceptively designed). Nothing. They just repeat again and again that they think the website is clear, that I knowingly agreed to a voucher and that it is non-refundable. I mean, if they cared about their customers they would actually understand what I'm saying and give me the money back. But that's clearly not their game. A band of thieves. I will never consider using them again and will discourage everyone I know from doing so. read more

Where to start... They come at they time they want and leave at the time they want. At least here in orlando. Sometimes you wait an hour for them. Other times you are waiting an hour because the driver decided to leave early. Customer service won't acknowledge it, Wont refund and will hang up on you. Luggage isn't safe. Anybody can take it. There's always a fight because of assigned seats since everybody will seat anywhere and the driver will see you as the problem if you complain. Definitely worth paying 5 more bucks for another company if you appreciate your peace of mind. read more

WORST BUS COMPANY EVER. So many things went wrong with Flixbus. Do not waste your money. I ordered a round trip seat and before I got on there were immediate issues. 1. It doesn't matter if you pay in advanced for better seating. They don't care. On my first bus the driver ignored the assigned seating and told people to sit where they want. He couldn't be bothered with that so he just let people do what they want. 2. 15 minutes into being on the highway the bus broke down and we were stranded on the turnpike for almost an hour while waiting for a replacement bus. Most people taking this bus had commitments like flights. People were getting angry (rightfully so), and because of the negligence to the buses' upkeep, we got to our destinations over an hour late. 3. When we DID finally get our replacement bus, the driver did not transfer our luggage from the old bus to the replacement bus. He left all the passengers to fend for themselves and it was a safety issue. These bags were heavy and part of what we're paying for is the driver to to his job. I got hurt because I'm small and my bag is big and had trouble lifting it. 4. The next day, they "lost" my confirmation for the bus coming back. The driver (different driver from the last one mentioned) asked for my confirmation & name. I showed it to him. He then asked for the barcode. I showed it to him. He said he couldn't find my name. I started to get mad because I paid, had PROOF that I paid, had the email & invoice in front of him, and he was still denying me from getting on the bus. He then told me he would need to call customer service to let me on. As you can imagine, this delayed us and everyone else was on the bus, upset that this was taking so long. 5. The driver put me on the phone with customer service and had me repeat my confirmation number that had the date & time of my booked ride and the woman on the phone said she couldn't find my name for the reservation and that I couldn't get on the bus. I got even more upset because I paid over $60 for the round trip, had PROOF of the booking, and she said it didn't matter. I told her it's not my problem that flixbus lost my reservation because I paid. She then said "its not MY problem" and HUNG UP! Yep. Customer service hung up on a paying customer. I then went to my banks website to show the driver proof of purchase that I paid for the round trip and he was literally about to leave me stranded. The greyhound security saw the whole thing and they felt bad for me and convinced him to let me on. He then told me "I'll let you on, but you're so mad right now." Of course, I was mad. Anyone would be mad after not being let on a bus they PAID for after showing all the proof, being hung up on by customer service, and holding up an entire bus for more than half an hour. The bus is cheap but not worth it. You're better off paying $5 more for any of the competitor bus lines. Lesson learned. read more

If you love turning 8 hour trips into 14 hour trips, this is the bus for you. Not only do you get to wait on the side of a highway for 5 hours waiting for a repair truck that said it'll come within 2 hours, even though you are only a 45 minute drive away from your starting point, but you get to wait while starving yourself too and without water (if you didn't pack enough food, since you know, it's not a full-day bus ride...). Ok well I lied. The repair truck did arrive after 3 hours but they forgot a tool so they had to go all the way back to get that tool. But seriously. Please put your money elsewhere. Do not get attracted to the super cheap rates because you may end up with a completely unaccepable experience like I did. When the repair truck eventually came, there was no communication with the passengers. They fixed their flat tires and whatever busted under the bus and we went on our way without a single word spoken to us. On a side note, the fact the bus broke down should speak for how much the company cares about their passengers' safety. If you couldn't take the hint, then let me spell it out for you. They do under the bare minimum to keep their buses running. If you like to live on the edge and question whether or not you will be able to survive a bus accident, let alone get to your destination, then by all means take this bus. But I'm assuming most people get on a bus ride to go to somewhere. Oh yeah did I mention that their customer service is bad/nonexistent? If you do call them, expect a 30 minute to an hour wait (or no call at all. That wouldn't surprise me one bit) read more

Cautionary Tale: I rode with Flixbus and had my life ruined On Sep 25, 20:30, I boarded on the Flixbus at the Berlin Central Bus Station bound for Zurich Central Bus station. In addition to my checked-in luggage, I had one small waistbag/fannypack that I wore on my body during the journey, which holds all the valuables including passport, wallet with 130 euros in cash, all credit cards etc. When the bus arrived at the destination, I got off to retrieve my suitcase but left my waist bag on my seat. On arriving at the terminal stop Zurich, I walked away from the bus to take the tram nearby. About 500 meters away, I realized I'd left my waist bag on my seat. I returned immediately, the bag was gone. The bus was already loading new passengers for a new trip since it arrived 2 hours late according to the schedule. I asked the new driver, he didn't speak English and simply did not care. The 2 drivers from Berlin were off duty and went to sleep, he told me. Since this bus arrived in Zurich late, it was already filling up with passengers for the next planned trip to Stuttgart. There were a few passengers on board and I asked them if they saw anything, they told me no. Since my seat was at the mid-bus entrance by the partition board, it's directly under the surveillance camera. I believe by reviewing the footage we can find out what happened. To this day, my legitimate request has not been answered. I called the service center of Flixbus in Germany right away and told them the whole incident, believing that in this mostly timely manner the bag can be found easily found without too much trouble. How wrong I was! The simple, automated line designed to pawn off passengers which the guy on the line, in his most indifferent tone, must have repeated a thousand times before goes, and I quote: submit the loss&found form! My 5 day trip to Zurich was naturally ruined. I made an official police report in Zurich with which I later returned to Germany as a kind of explanation for not having an ID when passing the border control. I specially mentioned the surveillance camera which could be used to discover the whereabouts of my bag. 5 days later I embarked on my return trip with Flixbus. It was a red-eye ride and I had to change midway for a train in Heidelberg. Due to the enormous stress and emotional fatigue endured thanks to the ruined trip, I left my suitcase uncollected when I got off at my stop. I soon realized the mistake minutes after the bus drove off and immediately called Flixbus help center, the only advice they provided was 'to ask someone you know to pick it up for you along the stops the bus will make on this trip'. I do not know anyone in those cities, to which he suggested to submit a loss and found form via their website and wait for the news, cause that's the best they can do, naturally. I came back to Berlin totally devastated. I'd submitted loss and found requests for both of my lost properties to Flixbus not only once, but three times in total, and each time they came back with the automated message: we're sorry, but we could not find your belonging. I'd paid a personal visit to their company, and the staff there, clearly underpaid and overworked, said there's nothing they could do. Nothing, not even a word of apology. The course of my life in Germany flipped 180 after the unfortunate ride with Flixbus. 2 months later, I had to leave the country for good since some documents I had was irreplaceable. I blame myself for the thrift, for having wanted to save 60 euros and made the poor choice, for not having done my homework properly beforehand. The ill reputation of Flixbus as an irresponsible, bloodthirsty company can be revealed a simple google search away, enough to discourage any penny pinchers to think twice before travelling the perilous road with them. read more

I am writing to formally complain about the unacceptable treatment I experienced during my journey on FlixBus 095 from Munich Central Bus Station to Klausen (Chiusa) on 8 March 2026. Details of the incident: During the scheduled stop at Innsbruck Südbahnstraße, Austria, the bus paused at a service station. The driver announced the break and explicitly allowed me to use the restroom for 5 minutes after I asked him in German, which other passengers can confirm. The driver was aware that I was going to the restroom without luggage and would return within the 5‑minute period. I bought a bottle of water at the station at 15:02 (transaction receipt available) and returned to the bus within the permitted 5 minutes, only to find that the bus had departed without me. Additionally, the bus left the Innsbruck stop earlier than indicated in the app (15:10). As a result, I was left stranded without my backpack, which contained my passport, wallet, and all my personal belongings. This caused not only stress and inconvenience but also restricted my freedom to travel, as I was denied access to my identification and financial means. This put me in a personally threatening and unsafe situation. I had no option but to follow the bus by taking a taxi. Another important point: FlixBus didn't mentioned in the ticket-related information that my action was prohibited. I did not expect this outcome. In addition, I called FlixBus customer service multiple times, but they could not provide any meaningful assistance. Instead, the lack of support only increased my frustration. Imagine racing a taxi after a FlixBus from Austria to Italy. I had to convince the taxi driver that I was not attempting to deceive him, with no money or ID on me, while speaking with the highly unhelpful FlixBus customer service. I had no option but to follow the bus by taking a taxi. Despite the fact that the bus departed minutes ahead of schedule, the driver's negligence forced me to arrange an emergency taxi from Innsbruck to Klausen, Italy, which cost me significantly. When we finaly intersected with the driver this was reluctant to give me access to my belongings. This situation has caused significant distress and financial burden, and I expect FlixBus to take full responsibility. read more

I have been travelling through Europe a lot in the past few years and I'm really glad that it's finally possible to travel within Germany by bus now. A fellow traveller highly recommended Flixbus to me and I found their connections perfect for a little trip through Germany so I planned an entire trip with Flixbus for me and my boyfriend. We stayed about 2 nights in each city, mostly in hostels and we also did some couchsurfing, so the entire trip was extremely cheap and one of the best travel experiences I ever had in Europe! Our experience with FlixBus was very positive. Everything worked out well and the tickets were so cheap :-) For my first booking I called the Flixbus Hotline for some help as their website is not available in English yet. Their staff was very friendly, helpful and could speak perfect English. + Very cheap tickets, snacks and drinks! + Our busses were all on time + Everything was extremely clean (I think they only have very new busses) + The drivers were great, very friendly and helpful + Free wifi + The transportation of our big backpacks was free + Service Hotline staff is great - Website is not available in English yet Here are the routes we travelled and the fares for one person: For the first part of our trip, I booked the tickets a few weeks in advance, so I managed to get the really cheap early birds fare Frankfurt Airport Cologne (5EUR) Cologne Bremen (13EUR) Bremen Hamburg (1EUR, yes! They had a special promotion or something and I got two 1EUR tickets, sweet!) Hamburg Berlin (8EUR) For the second part of our trip I booked the tickets only a few days in advance, so the cheapest tickets were mostly gone, but the full prices were still awesome (From Berlin to Dresden we took the train) Dresden Nuremberg (23EUR) Nuremberg Munich (15EUR) Munich Regensburg (11EUR) Regensburg Prag (23EUR) Prag Munich (33EUR) Munich Stuttgart (16EUR) Stuttgart Nuremberg (9EUR) Nuremberg Wurzburg (5EUR) Wurzburg Frankfurt (6EUR) I can highly recommend FlixBus and the whole route we took. Germany is a great country and it's now possible to easily travel from city to city on a budget :-) read more

I must express my profound disappointment with the recent experience I had with FLIXBUS. On the 8th of July, 2023, I, along with two other passengers, eagerly awaited the departure of the bus in České Budějovice. We arrived at the designated platform well in advance, but little did we know that this would be the start of a frustrating and unprofessional encounter. Fifteen minutes past the scheduled departure time, there was still no sign of the bus. To add to the frustration, the mobile application failed to provide any updates or notifications about a possible platform change or any other adjustments. As a result, we were left clueless and stranded, eventually causing me to miss a significant tournament I had planned for so diligently. The lack of communication and disorganization exhibited by FLIXBUS is unacceptable. As a traveler who relies on timely and accurate information, this experience left me not only inconvenienced but also with a considerable financial loss. I am genuinely concerned about the professionalism of FLIXBUS. The utter disregard for its passengers' time and schedules is deeply troubling. When customers make a commitment to travel with a company, they expect the same level of commitment in return. I am now seeking an immediate resolution to this issue. It is only fair that FLIXBUS compensates me fully for the trip that never happened, booked under reservation number 3090140303. Furthermore, I believe it is essential for FLIXBUS to take responsibility for its lack of communication and ensure that proper measures are implemented to avoid such situations in the future. In conclusion, I strongly advise fellow travelers to think twice before choosing FLIXBUS. This experience has left me with a bitter taste and has shattered any trust I had in the company's services. I hope this review serves as a warning to others, and I implore FLIXBUS to address this matter promptly and professionally. read more

On April 28, 2024, I traveled from Paris (Bercy Seine) to London (Victoria Coach Station) via a FlixBus service, with a departure time of 10:15 (Paris time) and an arrival time of 18:55 (London time). My booking reference number for this particular trip is 315 443 4163, route 700. Unfortunately, upon my arrival in London, I realized that I had inadvertently left my suitcase in the luggage compartment of the bus. The suitcase in question is a medium-sized black one with four wheels, displaying some minor scratches, and branded "Newcom." Immediately upon recognizing my mistake, I hastened back to the station within a mere 10 minutes, only to find that the bus had already left. Despite my swift actions to retrieve the suitcase, which included visiting the station on the evening of April 28 and again on April 29, as well as lodging a report with FlixBus's lost and found department (report reference number: 37302145), there have been no updates or leads regarding its whereabouts. It has now been more than two weeks since my first contact with the lost and found service. The inability to find my suitcase, which was left in the luggage compartment of your bus, for such an extended period is unacceptable. This lack of professionalism on your part is simply unacceptable. I vividly remember the driver who operated the route and have provided all relevant details. Despite suggesting the possibility of contacting the bus driver, FlixBus declined to do so, citing privacy concerns. While I acknowledge my own error in leaving the suitcase behind, I am profoundly dissatisfied with FlixBus's approach to resolving this matter. I believe the company's actions--or lack thereof--could be construed as negligence. Consequently, I am considering taking legal action to address this situation. read more

Ich studiere in München und besuche an den meisten Wochenenden meinen Freund in Nürnberg. Vor allem auf dieser Strecke, aber auch auf ein paar anderen habe ich den Flixbus jetzt schon einige Wochen lang ausgiebig getestet und bin total begeistert! Endlich gibt es eine tolle, günstige Alternative zur Bahn. Und auch Mitfahrgelegenheiten muss ich jetzt nicht mehr nutzen. Da hatte ich in letzter Zeit auch nicht mehr so Lust drauf irgendwie. Meistens steht der Bus in Nürnberg oder München schon lange vor der Abfahrt bereit. Bis jetzt habe ich nur ein mal eine Verspätung von ca 25min erlebt. Da kam dann kurz vor der geplanten Abfahrt eine Benachrichtigungs-SMS, dass der Bus verkehrsbedingt 20min Verspätung hat. Das geht für mich absolut in Ordnung und der Service mit der Benachrichtigung ist klasse. Das gratis Wlan auf der Fahrt nutze ich sehr ausgiebig mit dem Laptop zum Surfen und Arbeiten. Ab und zu ist auf der Autobahn mal kurz das Signal weg. Läuft aber sonst ziemlich schnell und war bis jetzt in jedem Bus verfügbar. Die Busfahrer waren bis jetzt immer sehr freundlich und an der Fahrweise hatte ich noch nie irgendetwas zu beanstanden. Die Busse waren alle sauber und neu. Solche komfortablen Sitze mit so viel Beinfreiheit hatte ich bis jetzt im Bus vorher noch nie. Die Ankunft in München war immer pünktlich, meistens waren wir sogar ein paar Minuten vor der geplanten Ankunftszeit am Ziel. Ich bin absolut zufrieden mit dem Fernbus Service von Flixbus und auch viele Freunde und Bekannte von mir haben immer nur gute Erfahrungen gemacht. Ich hoffe das Netz wird ganz schnell weiter ausgebaut, dann kann ich bald komplett auf die Bahn verzichten. read more

Freitag war meine erste Fahrt mit Flixbus fahren. Gebuchte Strecke Berlin - Leipzig. Keine Frage: der Preis ist erschreckend günstig. Ich nutze sonst die Konkurrenz und zahle mehr. Das werde ich wohl auch in Zukunft wieder machen, denn für die Fahrt mit Flixbus brauch man Nerven. Der Buchungsprozess war nicht ganz einfach. Telefonisch reservieren geht ja wohl nicht. :-( Der Bus war pünktlich. Das Gepäck wurde einfach nur in den Kofferraum gepackt. Es hätte sich unterwegs an jeder Haltestelle also jeder bedienen können. Die Dame vom Check-in war freundlich, sah aber aus, als sei sie einem Manga entsprungen. Ein Bisschen dezenter wäre schon ok... Im Bus waren alle drei Reihen etwa Müllsäcke an die Armlehnen gehängt worden. Zur Erinnerung: letzten Freitag waren gut 25 Grad und der Bus kam wohl aus Rostock. Mit anderen Worten: es müffelte. Alles nicht so schlimm, dachte ich. Bis die Busfahrerin im breitesten Bayrisch ansagte, dass man sich anschnallen sollte und wenn nicht ist das unser Problem. Sie zahlt das nicht. Ein Einfaches: "Bitte schnallen Sie sich an." hätte gereicht. Was dem Fass aber den Boden ausschlug war, dass im Klo bewusst kein Toilettenpapier mehr ausgelegt wird. Die Leute werfen es immer in die Toilette, die verstopft dann und deshalb hat die Firmenzentrale gesagt das machen wir nicht mehr. (Ist das nicht eigentlich Nötigung in einem abendländischen Land???) Wlan - Fehlanzeige. Getränke, Snacks - gab es nicht. Dafür eine Pause von 30 Minuten am Rasthof Fläming. Insgesamt dauerte meine Fahrt damit fast 3 Stunden. Da ist auch der Preis von 9 Euro nicht gerechtfertigt. Sorry, aber ich geh wieder zur Konkurrenz. read more

my trip with you guys has turned out to be one of my worst traveling experiences ever! Been on a bus from hell from Barcelona (what's the worst smelling toilet you ever smelled? For me flixbus N710 towards Düsseldorf) got physically sick of it and I'm a bartender used to cleaning horrible toilets!!. Plus I now stink sooooooooo bad that other passengers won't come close and probably think I'm incontinent so yeah feeling great. As cherry on top I booked a ticket for 40 minutes after arrivel in Amsterdam since you guys are never more than 30 minutes late but now am delayed again and send a message on Facebook about my connection. And it seems that you guys are not responsible for me missing my transfer in Amsterdam because of bs reason the nice girl (Linda on facebook) had to give me. So we go from boasting about being on time to not taking responsibility for a 40+ minute delay on a 3 hour and 40 minute trip (assuming my math is correct and I miss the flixbus in Amsterdam) boasting about service where you straight up endanger people (yes the ride were a boy got a seizures from the smell) and your bus drivers (both) did nothing! Tought BHV (dutch for company first aid) was something they would need as well but you guys are welcome since I have mine and together with some passengers could stabilize the guy and see him off in a ambulance. Oh and please stop advertising that you have wifi now in my 7th flixbus in 8 days and only one had (sort of) working wifi. So here is what I would like. Man up and take responsibility! Signed by a sad and very sick customer read more

Hier frische Geschichte darüber, wie ein Flix-Bus-Fahrer mit Fahrgästen umgeht... Gestern bin ich mit dem Bus 051 aus Düssi in Berlin angekommen, der Fahrer ist unten beim Gepäck mit anderen Passagieren, ich hab keins - also bin vorne ausgestiegen und losgegangen. Da merke ich, dass ich den Regenschirm im Bus vergessen habe. Schnell zurück zum Bus (der Fahrer sagte vorhin, er muss gleich wieder los fahren, bitte schnell aussteigen und eigenen Abfall mitnehmen - was ich freundlicherweise auch getan habe). Nun stehe ich vorne auf der unteren Stufe und will weiter nach oben, merke dann den Fahrer, der steht auf der oberen Stufe und will nach unten. Mein Fehler war, zugegeben, dass ich als - a.Fahrgast b.eine Frau 50+ und c.schlecht von der Stufe rückwärts zurück nach unten kann - irgendwie erwartet habe, dass er einfach einen Schritt zur Seite macht und mich die 2 restlichen Stufen rauf steigen lässt. Was aber dann in sekundenschnelle passiert ist, hätte ich mir nicht im Traum vorstellen können. Der Fahrer lässt mich nicht nur nicht rauf kommen, sondern er geht noch eine Stufe runter, somit steht er jetzt dicht vor mir, legt seine beiden Hände auf meine Brüste und schubst mich mit physischer Gewalt aus dem Bus raus, sagt dabei eiskalt: "ich zuerst" ! Wie ich den Balance halten konnte und nicht rückwärts hingefallen bin, weiß ich gar nicht. Aber den Schock und die Wut spüre ich auch jetzt noch. Ich musste den ganzen Weg vom ZOB nach Hause weinen. read more

I used FlixBus to get from Ljubljana to Zagreb and then Zagreb to Budapest, and was very impressed with the service. Both buses had a good wifi connection for the entire trip, and both had bathrooms on board. The Zagreb-Budapest trip was a longer one (5 hours) so they also had food and drinks available on the bus to purchase and stopped us at a cafe halfway through in case anyone was hungry. While the bus trip was better than I anticipated (especially because the cost of the tickets were cheaper than anything else I had seen), but how they deal with cancellations and changing tickets is actually why I wanted to write a positive review. On the day of our trip from Ljubljana to Zagreb, we found out we needed to get to Zagreb earlier than we thought so we could drop off our luggage at the bus station luggage hold before it closed. FlixBus had an earlier bus to Zagreb that day, and we were able to cancel our original tickets, get a voucher for the full cost of the original tickets we cancelled (sent to me immediately by email), and then use that voucher to book the new time, all of which was incredibly easy to do on the FlixBus App through the "rebook" option. They also allow mobile boarding passes (also through their app), which was great because so many bus companies require a printed ticket which general isn't possible when you're travelling and don't have access to a home printer. Overall, I would highly recommend FlixBus! read more

Flixbus ist doch eine peinliche Firma Ich habe eine Fahrt von Düsseldorf nach Dresden gebucht. Ich habe mit Absicht den letzten Trip gebucht um den Tag in Dresden auszunutzen. Am nächsten Morgen musste ich um 9:30 arbeiten. (Anfahrt : Sonntag 23:15 Dresden- Montag 07:40 Abfahrt in Düsseldorf) Alles ging cool los, bis ich die erste Sms bekommen habe , dass der Bus 1st 50 Verspätung hat. Kein Thema, kann es passieren! Doch jetzt fing der Albtraum erst an. Jede Stunde, bis 5:35, wurde eine SMS verschickt , inder der Bus einfach immer um eine Stunde verschoben wurde. Ich versuchte mehrmals die Hotline anzurufen um mehr Informationen zu bekommen, aber niemand ist dran gegangen. Nach der 7 Sms in der Nacht, ist der Bus endlich angekommen (ungefähr 6 Stunden Verspätung). Leider nicht am gewünschten Zielort Duesseldorf sondern in Leverkusen. Dort wurden alle Mitfahrer ohne Grund und ohne Hilfe einfach Rausgeschmissen . Die Begründung: ''Der Trip ist in Leverkusen vorbei". Nachdem ich mir ein extra Ticket der Bahn bis zum Hbf Düsseldorf gekauft hatte, erreichte ich diesen um 14:40 (7 Stunden später von der vorausichtiliche Zeit). Erstaunlicherweise bekam ich heute eine Email von Flixbus: ,, Sie bekommen wegen der Verspätung eine kostenlose Fahrt mit Flixbus´´. Einfach Peinlich, niemand hat uns eine Erklärung bzw Rückmeldung gegeben, als wir es gebraucht hätten. Danke aber ich fahre nie wieder mit diesem Unternehmen. read more

I had the worst travel experience of my life with FlixBus. My trip started at the Miami Beach (Newport Beachside) stop, which was already a confusing and poorly marked location. The signs could easily be mistaken for the hotel's shuttle, and the lack of clear instructions in my confirmation made things worse. The bus passed right by me at the stop while I was standing there with my luggage! Determined not to miss my trip to Orlando to meet my family for our Disney vacation, I had to chase the bus down in a car and catch up to it at a red light. When I approached the bus, the driver immediately started screaming profanities at me, addressing me in the most disrespectful and racist manner, calling me by my skin color and using offensive names. It was shocking and humiliating. I felt incredibly unsafe, but I had no choice but to get on since I had already paid for my ticket. I had even paid extra for a seat upgrade, but when I found someone else sitting in my assigned seat, the driver refused to assist me. His hostility throughout the experience made me feel completely unwelcome and uncomfortable. FlixBus's lack of professionalism, accountability, and basic human decency is appalling. I would never recommend this company to anyone, especially if you value respect and safety. Avoid FlixBus at all costs! 1/5 stars, only because 0 stars isn't an option. read more

Had a horrible experience with Flixbus!!! I was supposed to board the bus around 1am at the airport in Amsterdam. First the bus was late (which is understandable) but then when the bus finally arrived and I was trying to get on board my printed ticket or the ticket sent to my email would not scan. I showed both my printed ticket and the ticket on my email and everything was okay but for some reason my name was not in their system and they would not let me board the bus. I was trying to reason with them but I was told there must be a problem with the payment and still they would not let me on the bus. So I slept at the airpot in Amsterdam while trying to figure out what to do. It has now been a month and I have emailed flixbus 4 times. After the 1st email I got a reply a week later telling me to explain the situation better because they could see that my name was in their system. I replied to this email with and got a reply blaming me saying that I had missed the bus because it was late and other people had boarded the bus. Since then I have emailed them 3 times and have not heard anything back! I decided to share my experience in case people are trying to decide between bus companies I would say do not choose Flixbus unless you want to be left stranded somewhere in the middle of night and not receive any help regarding it. read more

Ich reise grundsätzlich viel, auch mit Fernbussen seit Einführung. Meistens reise ich dabei mit MeinFernbus, aber da es zu meinem Reisezeitpunkt billiger war mit dem Flixbus nach München zu fahren, wollte ich ihn einmal ausprobieren. Vorteile: + er war pünktlich losgefahren + wenige Mitfahrer, viel Platz Nachteile: - bei der Buchung gab es einige Probleme, da ich umgebucht habe - einen höher wertigeren Gutschein als der Fahrtpreis wird nicht angenommen! - Umbuchung kostet pro Karte 3 Euro - Verspätung von 45 min bei Ankunft - leider Gepäckstück vergessen im Bus, Kundenservice reagiert seit Wochen nicht auf mehrmaliges Anschreiben und Telefonhotline nimmt nicht ab; nach etwa 10 Versuchen aufgegeben. SEHR ÄRGERLICH Besonders ärgerlich finde ich den Service von Flixbus. Nach mehrmaligem Anschreiben und Anrufen habe ich bis jetzt, nach ca. 2 Wochen noch immer keine Rückmeldung erhalten ob mein Gepäckstück gefunden wurde oder nicht. Auch die Buchung dauerte statt wenigen Minuten Tage aufgrund des bereits genannten Gutschein-Problems! Schließlich durch das Personal gebucht. Wenn es geht, werde ich in Zukunft definitiv versuchen eine weitere Fahrt mit Flixbus zu vermeiden! Lieber zahle ich 2-3 Euro mehr und bleibe flexibler und habe auch einen guten Service! read more

I'm absolutely disgusted by the experience I had with FlixBus and the way they handled my complaint. A few days ago, while waiting at the Broxden Park & Ride, I mistakenly boarded a bus headed for Aberdeen. The driver's reaction? Completely rude and dismissive! Instead of a polite response to a simple question, I was met with a condescending and aggressive tone, embarrassing me in front of other passengers. And when I reached out to customer service to report this unprofessional behavior, I received a generic, computer-generated response that did nothing to address the issue. Clearly, FlixBus doesn't care how their customers are treated. I've used FlixBus multiple times in the past, but let's be honest, the only reason I tolerated their poor service was the cheap price. The internet never works, the toilets are often out of service, and the buses themselves are filthy. I could overlook these things for a budget-friendly trip, but dealing with rude, disrespectful employees is where I draw the line. I've deleted the app and will never use FlixBus again. If you're traveling in Scotland, I highly recommend Ember, which offers a far better and more professional service. Do yourself a favor and avoid FlixBus--it's simply not worth the trouble. read more

Ich habe noch nie so einen schlechten Kundenservice erlebt! Der Bus hatte 5 Stunden Verspätung, weswegen ich mit dem Zug fahren musste. Allein das war schon fast 10 Euro teurer (und auch nur weil ich eine Bahncard habe) als ich eigentlich für den Zug bezahlt hätte. Trotz dieser massiven Verspätung wurde mir der Busticketpreis vom Konto abgebucht!!! So etwas geht überhaupt nicht! Auf meine E-Mail kam keine Reaktion, obwohl ich diese schon vor 2 Wochen geschrieben habe. Auch per Post habe ich den ausgefüllten Beschwerdeantrag verschickt - wieder keine Reaktion! Das ist so unmöglich, der Kundenservice hier ist schlechter als bei der Deutschen Bahn - und das soll was heißen! Nachdem ich heute die Hotline angerufen habe und endlich mal durchkam, wurde mir nur gesagt, dass das 4 Wochen dauert bis ich eine Antwort bekomme und man konnte mir nicht einmal versichern, dass ich das Geld zurückbekomme. Ich finde dieses Verhalten so unverschämt! Ich kann nichts dafür wenn Flixbus täglich 2000 E-Mails bekommt! Das ist doch keine Entschuldigung! Wenn ich das Geld nicht bald wieder bekomme, werde ich künftig völlig auf den Flixbus verzichten! Da ist man ja selbst bei der Bahn besser aufgehoben - hätte nicht gedacht, dass ich das mal sagen würde! read more

FLixBUS hires racist bus drivers. DO NOT SUPPORT THIS COMPANY Wir sind mit dem Flexibus zum Flughhafen Berlin gefahren und von dortaus in den Urlaub geflogen. Wir sind zurück aus dem Urlaub gekommen und wollten nach Hause mit dem Bus. Wir haben bei der Bushaltestelle mit einer ausländischen Familie gewartet, die auch kleine Kinder hatten und als der Bus ankam und die zwei Busfahrer aus dem Bus gestiegen sind, haben die gleich zu der ausländische Familie gesagt: Sie fahren nicht mit dem Bus. Ihr Argument war, dass ihre Kinder einen Kindersitz brauchen und forderten, dass nur Kinder, die älter als fünf sind, können ohne Kindersitz mit dem Bus mitfahren. Die beiden Busfahrer haben denn gesagt, dass diese Info auf dem Flexibus Website stehen...Was da auf dem Website steht ist das Kinder bis drei Jahre alt müssen eine Kindersitz haben. Weil wir versucht haben, die Famile die weder Enlgisch noch Deutsch sprachen zu verteidigen, durften wir auch letztendlich nicht mit dem Bus fahren. Welcome back to Germany! Ich kann nur Flexibus empfehlen wenn Sie eine Firma unterstüzen wollen, die Ausländer feindliche Busfahrer einstellen. read more

Absolut inakzeptabel! Die Abfahrt findet erst mit 2 Stunden Verspätung an, die allerdings nur stückchenweise kommuniziert wurde, sodass man leider an der Haltestelle warten musste (danke für 120 verschwendete Minuten meines Lebens!!!). Anschließend warten wir auf der Autobahn weitere 3 Stunden wegen eines angeblichen Staus, der - liest man die Verkehrsbenachrichtigungen - maximal 30 Minuten hätte dauern dürfen. So werden aus einem 12 € Ticket mit geplanter Fahrtzeit von 3 Stunden von Berlin nach Hamburg auf einmal Kosten von 212 € (aufgrund der späten Ankunft um 3 Uhr morgens musste ich mir ein neues Hotelzimmer suchen und ein Taxi nehmen). Zu guter letzt erhält man als Antwort vom Kundendienst eine automatische Nachricht, man könne nichts für mich tun. Danke für nichts Flixbus! Ich kann dich NICHT weiterempfehlen. Könnte ich 0 Sterne geben, würde ich es tun. Ihr seid leider noch UNZUVERLÄSSIGER als die restlichen Alternativen am Markt! Schade schade, den Hype um dich als Unternehmen kann ich nicht nachvollziehen. read more

Meine Erfahrung mit FlixBus: Ich studiere in Nürnberg und fahre oft am Wochenende nach München. Bis jetzt bin ich immer mit Mitfahrgelegenheiten gefahren, habe aber eine echte und vor allem günstigere Alternative gefunden! Mein Ticket habe ich online gebucht und dann mit'm Smartphone beim Busfahrer eingecheckt. Dieser hat dann auch gleich um meinen Koffer gekümmert und ihn im Laderaum verstaut. Den richtigen Bus habe ich auch sofort gefunden die Orange-blauen sind ja leicht zu erkennen. Der Bus war auch innen ganz neu, modern ausgestattet und sehr sauber. Einen Platz am Fenster konnte ich auch gleich ergattern und dann habe ich es mir bis München vor meinem Laptop gemütlich gemacht. Die Beinfreiheit ist hier echt genial. Zwischendurch kann man auch Snacks, Getränke oder Kaffee (kostenloser refill an der Kaffeebar:)) kaufen. In München ist der Bus dann zwar mit 5 Minuten Verspätung angekommen, was ich allerdings vollkommen akzeptabel finde. Mein Fazit: Meine neue Mitfahrgelegenheit heißt FlixBus! read more

Horrible. I would give 0 stars if I could. We went a day early to ask the bus driver if our 11 month baby could travel with a baby carrier and if he needed a ticket. He said it was fine and baby travel free. Based on that info we reserved tickets online for the next day from Luxembourg to Brussels. The next day , we artived two hours before departure , the bus driver arrived late and made us wait till the end of the queue with my baby in tow before telling us he wasn't willing to take us without the car seat even though we explained we checked the policy the day before. We then had to unpack all things from the bus. Three things. 2. It never specified what a suitable carrier or seat was for babies, if they need a ticket . We have lost 40 euros and lost time as well as endured humiliation all because we listened to one flix bus driver advice and had another horrible bus driver to deal with. I will never set foot on flix ever again. read more
