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.

The only reason I gave 1 star is that the bus arrived on time for both our departure and return trips. Unfortunately, the overall experience was very disappointing, mainly due to the drivers--especially the one on our departure trip from downtown Toronto to Niagara Falls. His behavior was rude and unprofessional. My wife and I paid extra for 'first class' seats to have the additional legroom I need as a tall person. However, when we boarded the bus, we found the driver's personal belongings in our reserved seats. When we showed him our tickets, he not only refused to acknowledge our rightful seats but also made a scene in front of the entire bus, saying things like, "I hate first class," and "Now you have to sit behind me," as though we had chosen to inconvenience him. We only wanted to sit in the seats we paid for. Reluctantly, we moved to the seats behind the driver, which were less comfortable. To make matters worse, the driver watched the news on his phone, which he had propped on the steering column while driving. This was extremely unsafe and made the experience even more unsettling. Our return trip back to Toronto was better but still unsettling given the driver tailgated and beeped at other drivers the whole trip. We did not have any luggage but we saw him throw other people's luggage around in the storage space under the bus. I was deeply disappointed by this experience overall and will not be using this bus line again. read more

Worst experience ever. The tire on the bus broke on the highway so we waited for 2 hours to get fixed, with the police and servise support, so i missed my first connection and i had to buy another ticket. When i asked them for refund, they just lie that the bus was on time for my connection. I will never use Flixbus again. read more

They will change pickup locations without any notice. I had been taking the same bus at the same time for months, and it simply did not show up when I tried to take it. I was standing at the bus stop confused with several other people who hadn't been waiting for hours. When I called customer service they were pretty rude and short. I've also seen a bus driver yelling at people for waiting at the incorrect bus stop, which didn't really warrant yelling at people. Not great that they hire unhinged bus drivers. read more

Wrong Pickup Location- Missed Bus FlixBus Toronto to Ottawa route changed their pickup and drop off locations, but did not change the address on January and February email confirmations. My party and 2 other passengers were at the 265 Iris St IKEA location, and we missed our 1.30 pm bus that left from Walmart, Gloucester Centre. We needed a $20 Uber and had to buy new tickets ($133) for a later bus from the correct stop. The driver forced us to buy new tickets or get off the bus. FlixBus and their operator Gallexy are badly managed and are a scam. Avoid FlixBus and Gallexy Inc. in Canada, you have been warned. read more

I honestly don't know where to start. Do I start with the incredibly rude driver? Maybe that we weren't able to sit in the seats we reserved? How about the fact that there was no toilet paper or paper towels in the restroom? I know. WE ENDED UP IN GENOA! When we arrived we asked one worker, who ended up being a co-driver, if we were at the right place. He did not speak English, which is fine. I showed him my phone with the reservation and he motioned to see the other driver. The other driver was so incredibly rude. Again, he did not speak Engilsh, which again, is fine. However, when I tried to show him my phone he just "shewed" me onto the bus, so we took that as confirmation that we were on the correct bus. We loaded our bags into baggage area, boarded the bus, and headed to the front and the very specific seats I paid extra to reserve. Knowing we were driving through the Alps, we very specifically wanted the front row seats so we would have the best view. We had wanted to leave earlier, but those seats were not available, so we chose a later bus so we could get those front seats. However, as we arrived at what should have been our seats, the bus drivers' stuff was on them, and another passenger told us we weren't allowed to sit there. When the driver boarded, I tried to explain that we had reserved those seats but I basically was motioned to sit down. Looking at the seat labels, on this bus the front row was row 0 and the row behind that was row 1, the row we reserved. However, the seat map on the website clearly showed row 1 as the very first row. This is 100% false advertising. So we took our seat and began to enjoy the ride. A couple of hours into the trip, I needed to go to the bathroom. As I sat down on the toilet, I realized there was no toilet paper nor paper towels. Well that sucked. Let's just say I'm glad I was wearing socks and only needed to pee. So we eventually stop in Turin, our destination. However, I don't see "Vitorio Emmanuele" on any sign, which according to our reservation, is where we are to disembark. Again, I try to ask the rude driver if this is where we should exit, and he shewed me back onto the bus. So my assumption is that there is another stop in Turin and that one is ours. Well, about an hour later it was apparent that there was not another stop in Turin and based on another passenger's conversation with the driver, our next stop was Genoa, another 4 hours away. Cue a rush to notify our hotel in Turin that we would not check in until the following night as we didn't want them to cancel our reservation. Definitely not happy that we're paying for a hotel room we won't stay in. We then had a mad search for a hotel room in Genoa. The worst part of this was that the bus never stopped. 8 hours and we were unable to use a proper restroom (you know, one with toilet paper) and more importantly, 8 hours without the opportunity to get food or water. Luckily, we had a couple of bottles of water with us and some snacks, but my husband is diabetic and this situation could have been very, very bad for him. read more

booked bus, took payment 3 times, customer service said id probably get my money back - when I raised another query I was told most people would say thank you for the advice rather than asking for more clarification. then the bus drove straight passed and missed our stop leaving 2 women in a bus station at 1.30am (bus had already been delayed). no customer service available on the weekend despite what the website said. Made me miss an important family event and are currently refusing to refund despite me being more than £300 out of pocket for their non-existent service. avoid like the plague. read more

Flixbus is a rip off!!!! I was delayed my ride services by 2 mins and I called to reschedule my ticket or cancel my ticket for a work trip. The reschedule cost $200 plus dollars to change the time from 12A.M to 5A.M ,so the total would've been $435 (a flight price ) for a Sunday, midnight ride . Then I asked for a refund , they took $172 and refunded me a voucher per their policy So they basically just robbed me for my funds !!!!! I wouldn't recommend this service . It's literally highway robbery !!!! I Will Never use this service again !!!! read more

Zero stars. I had a return ticket from London Victoria Coach Station to Manchester Shudehill Interchange. The bus broke down an hour into the journey and we were stranded. Everyone had to find their own way home. No bus replacement, no assistance, etc. When I contacted customer support regarding my refund for this, they are so daft they're telling me that my bus from "London Finchley Road" reached its destination. Excuse me, please don't me that their staff don't have the brains to look at records properly and make sure they have all the details about a customer's journey when the customer asks them for assistance? Nice ploy to avoid refunds for their mistakes. Employs people who know to gaslight and can't check details properly. Absolute bullshit. read more

If I could give ZERO stars I would! This is a sham company with shady business practices! I booked a return bus trip for 2 outside of Seattle, USA. The route was then washed away by record flooding. I called them as soon as I heard. They told me there were no alternate routes available, so I could call on the morning of ride to cancel for a full refund. They had to verify daily that the route was closed -even though it was national news and posted on Washington Department of Transportation that the highway was closed and would not be fixed for months. So I booked alternate transportation and called them back on the morning of my planned travel. They then told me that they could not verify the information (even though it was National NEWS and availabe online) and that they would not cancel or refund me. The representative was rude and even laughing -HORRIBLE CUSTOMER SERVICE. I've now seen hundreds of horrible reviews, I wish I would have seen prior. I WILL NEVER BOOK WITH FLIX again and you shouldn't either. read more

I took outbound and inbound trips London Victoria - Amsterdam Sloterdijk, Route N814, on Tue 22 and Wed 23 July, which coincidentally (but it is relevant) were on the same coach, 42F4 (Polish licence plate OP 5902 T). There were already inconveniences on the outbound leg as there was no power to the power points in my seating row, and there was no working internet on the coach, a major inconvenience. But this was as nothing compared to the return leg, which had major problems exacerbated by a crew whose attitude and lack of professional standards were wholly unacceptable. First, of course, there was again the power issue (though I was in a different row this time!) and still no internet. But then the crew did NOT check or scan passports or ID cards on boarding, something that may have prevented the later issue I will detail. We left Sloterdijk 24' late. Much time was wasted on extended breaks en route to Calais so that by the time we reached Antwerp we were running 31' late, Bruges 35' and Calais 40' late. Had the basic checks been taken at Amsterdam and had we arrived at Calais on time, the next problem would not have turned into the crisis it became, because we would have had time in hand. A passenger was detained at the UK Border control in Calais and after a certain period of time had elapsed with no active updates from the drivers to the passengers, we were told not to worry, we'd still make it for the 02:30 DFDS ferry. The coach SHOULD therefore have proceeded to the embarkation point so that IF that passenger was released in time, they could rejoin the coach - but if not, Coach N814 could still make the ferry. In any event, there were many other later Flixbuses after ours that could have taken that passenger if they were released later on... It was not until much later - after the 02:30 ferry had sailed - that the driver admitted we'd missed it and he had no idea when the next ferry was. When we moved from the Border Control to the embarkation point, we were then told we'd been rescheduled onto "the next ferry", the DFDS at 06:05. But this was not true, it was not the next Dover ferry - there were ferries at 03:45 (Irish) and 04:30 (P&O), both with available space, that we could have taken, but our driver seemed unwilling or unable to actively pursue this possibility. (It would not be the case that Flixbus is only using DFDS ferries, because on the outbound leg, we sailed with P&O.) Consequently, we sailed on the 06:05. On reaching Dover, the driver only arrived at the coach after all the passengers, then had a problem unlocking, adding to the tensions that were already running high. We disembarked at 07:00, 4 hours late, therefore hitting the peak rush-hour traffic in London and arriving at Victoria at 09:32 (scheduled time was 05:35), with NO apology from the crew. The driver took numerous wrong turns, ignored queue lane rules, went up dead ends and made U turns as we approached Victoria, adding to the delay and stress. I sought a full refund of the full inbound leg ticket and my missed scheduled onward train to my destination, but Flixbus refused any refund or any compensation. BE WARNED. read more

Poor customer service. Paid for a trip from DC to New York. Missed the bus due to misinformation and they won't refund or credit the fare. Flix misinformed me by saying for nearly an hour after the scheduled departure it had left on time, when in fact it was delayed 94 minutes. Believing it had left on time and that I had somehow missed it, I took a different bus. read more

For a Brussels to Bruges day trip, We order tickets with Omio and i guess if you order directly through flixbus then the seats are assigned, but there was no way to know that until someone came to claim their seat. The station locations were confusing and drivers not very helpful either. read more

This review is on the bus driver we got from Houston Tx to Mobile Alabama on 06/27/25-06/28/25 .Since the first moment we meet with this person he was a very rude guy, he didn't help us or explain us how to put our luggage in the cabinets and starting yelling at us like LITERALLY YELLING!!! He was very impolite specially with people that didn't speak English and even when I tried to help by translating he responded to me "the question was in English".After that every time we did something he didn't approve he will be yelling at us and giving us attitude. He even threatened a non English speaker guy to call immigration on him.I do understand that it might be frustrating that people don't understand or follow directions but there are always better ways to communicate.He also had the audicity to communicate us that he was speeding up so we can arrive earlier read more

I tried to modify or refund a reservation. I did this ahead of time on the site. It wouldn't allow me to. When it transfered me to a live agent I was on hold then eventually disconnected without talking to anyone. I had to order another ticket. I was denied a refund on the 1st ticket despite me following there 15 minute before policy. I also used the online chat before being disconnected from multiple calls. This is a scam to keep refunds entitled to customers. Should start a joint lawsuit. read more

I would give them ZERO stars if I could. They are the WORST!! Customer service here is almost non-existent. I purchased a bus ticket for my daughter, and they missed her stop, and left 15-20 college kids in the middle of nowhere or offered to take them 1.5 hours to the next busstop. When I asked for a refund for this ticket, they told me that they show no record of missing the busstop and stopping 7 miles past the busstop to let the students off the bus, leaving them stranded. I have exact records of this trip on our life360 app and still said there is no proof. Guess I will be calling the police to get their report since the cops were called to this exact location. Seriously - STAY AWAY FROM THIS COMPANY!!!! read more

The Eugene-Seattle route is not safe for college students. The man sitting net to our daughter said something about stabbing and asked if she was a scaredy cat. He followed her off the bus even though I was in a chat with Flixbus while she was on the bus and the company assured me that the incident was being reported. She had to call 911 as she was running away from him. We will NEVER use this service again. read more

bus was very late. we called after it was 10mins late, we were told it will be 30mins late. we called again after 30 mins and that's when we were told the bus left 75 mins late. I guess this review is both for their customer service and then the bus itself. read more

The driver has a serious mental issue. Right from the get-go, he became verbally abusive. I am currently on the bus, but I'm concerned about my safety. I'd hate to see his reaction in a road rage situation. The bus in question is 040 from Garmisch-Partenkirchen to Munich at 1025 am on August 24, 2023. I have no doubt that Flixbus can do better in hiring drivers. read more

Don't Ride! Company is run by a bunch of crooks! Here's my FlixBus story. My bus from Lisbon to Faro with a transfer the Seville gets in an accident which causes damage to the bus and delays the ride by the tune of about 3 hours between an inspection, having to drive slower, and having to make an inspection. Because of the delay, I missed my connection. Only one more bus was available that day and the app said I only two seats were available so I paid the premium (more expensive than the entire first ticket) to ensure I made it aboard. Well, that was also a lie as there were plenty of seats. When they finally did rebook me after I was already on the new bus I had booked, the ticket was for a bus the following day which would have caused me to forego my accommodations in Seville and purchase accommodations last-minute in Faro. Crook #1 is my bus driver who does not report the delay to the company so when other passengers and I are late, none of our connections are automatically rebooked as is company policy nor do we get a refund for the over 2 hours delay rule. The driver showed no remojar to our situation and told us to call customer service which we did to no avail. (Didn't get a name but see photos) Crooks #2 is customer service representative Riad Aliu who informed me I could not be refunded though customer service, but assured me if I filled out the online form I would "certainly be refunded, I have recorded the incident here." I confirmed this three times with him and got his name for this reason. Well, he lied. Crook #3, Shella sends me an email after reviewing my form denying my request saying that I was wrong and my ride was not delayed despite the company rebooking me on a new bus, Riad's report, and the fact I booked a ticket last minute for the same route I was ticketed earlier for. The way I have been treated here is despicable. It sets a horrible precedent for the company. Everybody makes mistakes, and I can forgive this, but the way they handled this situation shows they are all about greed and cannot own up to a mistake at all levels of management. Give me my refund and I might consider adding a half star!! read more

The FlixBus was a last minute option to travel from Orlando back Tampa. It's been years since I've been on a bus and was hoping for a modern bus with amenities. Like the tricked out ones advertised on YouTube. Not the case, the bus was basic, dimly lit with felt seats. Air conditioning was set to freezing, I recommend wearing a ski jacket. Who's this for? Probably last minute transportation, someone without a car, or on a budget. Round trip from Tampa to Orlando the cost is around $30. Throw in Uber rides to take you too and from the stop, it's cheaper to simply drive if you can. I would consider trying Red Coach next time because this bus was not for me. read more

I would hae given 5 stars...if it weren't for this one thing. I accidentally left a small bag of mine on the bus when I got off which had my keys and epipen in it. It goes without saying that life is pretty difficult without one's keys and epipen. I called the company, who told me to fill out the lost and found form which immediately did and then wait to hear back from them. The guy also assured me that since it dealth with keys and a medical device, it would be given priority to get my things back to me. Well, that was a lie. I waited 2 weeks, called them to follow up and they sait to wait ONE more day (as if that was supposed to help, lol). Then it was the weekend, so I called back on the tuesday following week, where they literally said there was nothing they could do for me (not even willing to ask the lost & found department) and told me there's literally no possible way for them to put me in direct contact with them while simulatenously telling me that the only way for me to get an update on my item is to b in direct contact with them. Those 2 statements literally contradict themselves. Their customer service department needs to be retrained and/or their protocols need to be seriously reviewed and updated. There needs to be a way to directly contact the lost and found department other than simply waiting around in limbo and emailing the same people again over and over to no avail. read more

If I could give them a NEGATIVE 100 stars I would. I don't post reviews but I had to for this one. I paid for a trip that left at 5pm out of SF. The bus driver did not open the doors until 5:15 and left 1st stop at 5:20..already 20 minutes late to next destination. When we arrive ton2nd pickup stop the driver got out and allowed riders to get on. He then disappeared for 30 minutes only to come back and mumble something about a tire and that we would be leaving soon. He left the door proceeded to take us to an unknown location where we all were baffled to see we were driven into the bus depot mechanic where we were trapped without a way to get out for over an hour. The driver never shared what was going on. We arrived to the final destination 2 hours late late at night. Here is the kicker, after pleading for a refund they told me I was not merited compensation because I CHOSE to complete the ride. I will NEVER ride again. 0/10 DO NOT RECOMMEND read more

I order a ticket for my brother and nephew to go home from Las Vegas to Los Angeles and the departure was at 8:05pm and we were present at 7:30pm. I received a notification at nine minutes (8:14pm)later stating that the bus broke down and it was going to take an hour to get back on the road. My nephew waited as long as he can but he needed to use the restroom. By the time we grabbed some water and used the restroom the passengers where gone and it was only (8:55 pm), no where near the hour that they claimed that the bus was going to be late. I called customer service 1(855) 626-8585 I spoke to a lady name Marie and I asked for a rebooking do to them not being on time in the first place. Marie wasn't trying to help me in shape or form her answering was no, she tried to turn it around on me and told me i need to read the term and condition. I asked to speak to a supervisor and she refused me of speaking to someone for further assistance I Paid for a service and the original time the bus was suppose to be there, it was never there. Their bus broke down in a different location, we would have never missed the bus if the bus came on time so my nephew could have used the restroom on the bus. I don't mind admitting when I am in the wrong and taking the hit for it, but when a company messes up because there inventory braking down or not working properly they need to have options for people to get refund and make exceptions to make things right with the customer like rebooking if the customer is open to it. This is like robbing people because the majority of people who take these types of buses are for poverty is because they cant afford the better companies. Plus the people that take these bus don't have money to send them to court because of the wrong doing. So flixBus gets away with this but some day you guys will do the wrong person wrong and y'all will have a lawsuit out this world. I would be willing to do a class action against yall. Please help by reporting things like this to the Better Business Bureau (BBB) this isn't right. Please view the attached screen shot read more

I booked to trip to Oregon and the bus was cancelled. I was encouraged five days in a row to book a hotel room and I would be reimbursed. I was not. As I was running out of money and still committed to my trip I choose to stay at the bus garage in Sacramento. Staff and security left at 11pm. One of the patrons left with us decided he was going to kill everyone in the station. police were called twice due to this particular patron. The greyhound manager arrived at 2am and was involved in a physical altercation with one of the obvious upset patrons. He was obviously never trained in diffusing a situation. I gave up on my trip to Oregon and booked a trip home to Phoenix and the trip was cancelled. Rebooked for the following day and finally after a week left Sacramento. In Oakland I learned the bus stop for my transfer does not have anywhere to go except the actual bus stop. No restaurants within miles. No building to get out of the elements. Stood in the rain for three hours. Everytime I call Cust service for help I wait over an hour on hold repeatedly had calls disconnected due to an error. This was a true nightmare. As I understand Flix a German company has bought out Greyhound. They clearly have ways of "dealing with our kind" read more

ADA DISCRIMITATION ALERT!!! Had the worse experience with this company in Toronto - CA. Completely discriminatory against people in a wheelchair. I booked the trip and called way before to confirm if the ride would be accessible. The website said it would ask me to list the chair during the booking, which never happened, so I called. They could not make arrangements because I did not registered my chair 36 hours before (BECAUSE I COULD NOT!), I also asked to change the trip to 1 or 2 days later, still the same answer, "the driver will not allow you to board". What??? Had to request for refund and only got 10% back - I got penalized TWICE for a service that they refused to arrange. This is beyond unacceptable and I will be taking legal actions. Lost money, got frustrated and a nice vacation became a traumatic experience. Just avoid the headache, people. read more

This is the worst bus line I've ever been in, not only did the bus did not stop. It took hours of my time to get to talk to someone to refund not only did they not refund my round trip.

Well, I can't complain. I took a couple of Flix buses when I was touring Europe last month. First was Amsterdam to Paris (6 hrs.) and second was Naples to Venice ( 10 hrs.). The first bus started a little late (15 minutes) but reached on time. The second bus was good on time front. Leg space is plenty and comfortable so no issue in that. WI-Fi- the bathroom is there for you. In AMS-Paris bus, there was 2 level. There are green stickers at the seat for those who don't pay to reserve seats while booking. So mindful of that. Somebody asked me to take another seat in the middle of the journey because I was on his seat, so not all seat is for you. The drivers were friendly and polite in my case. Paris bus driver did not understand English but that's not his fault, I was in a foreign country. Overall Journey was comfortable and rational. Price front - Of course cheaper then Train that's why I booked: P read more

Never use flix bus. The bus came early and left early leaving behind a ton of travelers in Scranton Pennsylvania. When I called customer service, they told me they couldn't refund us, said he couldn't let us speak to a manager or get any of us hotel rooms. They stranded a dozen people in Scranton PA. NEVER TAKE FLIX, also they're often late. read more

If I could give less than one star, I would. To begin with, the communication of important information on the company website and on tickets is abysmal. I bought a ticket for my husband a few days ago on my phone from Edmonton to Calgary. We have been purchasing tickets this way nearly every week for the past 6 months. Nothing about this ticket looked different in any way, and no alerts about any changes showed up on the page to purchase them either. When the day came, my husband arrived with 15 minutes to spare, standing at the stop where the bus always arrives. Unbeknownst to him, the company had changed the stop to be on the opposite side of a major road, with no quick way across. Despite the distance, he moved as quickly as he could, arriving just as the bus pulled away. The bus driver very clearly saw him running in the rearview mirror but drove off anyways. When he went back to the original stop to see if there was information written anywhere letting passengers know of the change, he found nothing. We were later informed by the less-than-helpful customer support that the bus change was written in 8-point font on the backside of the ticket (absolutely nothing about the opposite side of the road, mind you--only the new bus stop number, which is impossible to read unless you get within a meter of the sign). If the lack of communication on their website and downright rude behaviour from the bus driver weren't bad enough, customer service was just as bad. After phoning them to explain the situation--that they had not alerted us to the change, and that my husband had missed an important appointment as a result of this miscommunication (the next bus wasn't for another 2 hours)--the customer support person insisted that the information was in fact visible on the website, even going so far as to argue with me when I, while looking at the webpage, explained to her that no such info is available anywhere on a phone screen. They then insisted that because a change in bus stop number was also written on the ticket itself, missing the bus was his fault (once more, it was written in the smallest print, and with nothing more than a bus stop number that even the best eyesight couldn't spot more than a meter away). When I tried to explain otherwise, they interrupted me and hung up. When I called back, the second customer service person was just as unhelpful, this time going so far as to say that there was actually NO change in stops, and that the bus had stopped exactly where it always did. A worse example of "the left hand not knowing what the right hand is doing and the right hand not knowing what the left is doing" I have never seen. Frankly, I am appalled. In a city where so many rely on buses like these to commute to different cities, I expected better. Evidently though, that hope was misguided as I'm seeing now, based on all of these other reviews proving that the company is infamous for its service. Needless to say, I do not recommend. 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
