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.

Had a round trip ticket from Tucson to Las Vegas. No Wi-Fi from Tucson. Our return trip from Las Vegas was scheduled for pick up at 9:20 a.m. on 10/13/22. The driver never showed up. We were at the pick up site at 9:00 along with 2 other passengers waiting and waiting.Called customer service and was told that I was marked absent. DUH !!! I tried to explain I was marked absent because the incompetent driver did not show up. He canceled my ticket and I used the credit to rebook a ticket on an afternoon trip. This rebooking cost me an additional $64 since the credit did not cover the cost of the new ticket.One and done with Flixbus. Never again. Go Greyhound read more

Unreliable and dishonest. No notification to passengers about ETAs. Absolutely no customer service or way to get a hold of someone who might have a modicum of knowledge about timing. Bus still has not arrived and chat person has no information. And can only say no refunds unless bus is over 120 minutes late or if it is canceled. Don't ever use them in the States. read more

Don't Do It! Eastern Bus was so much better! I did an up and down trip to from Richmond to D.C. and back, because I hate I-95 traffic. I hadn't realized that Eastern Bus had been acquired, but I was hopeful because the already cheap price ($15) was even cheaper ($5). This should have been a red flag. The bus was prompt, and in the same pick up location, so I thought all was well. Nope, about halfway up, the air conditioner died and the bus slowed to around 60MPH. The driver did his best to handle the boiling and increasingly angry passengers. The directive from corporate was to pull off and wait for another bus (that would take 3-4hrs. to get there). Thankfully, the driver polled the audience and we anonymously decided to keep pushing on to D.C. for the next hour and some change. The trip back home was just as irritating. The bus no longer picks up in the old Chinatown location. However, the passengers waiting around in the lobby wouldn't know that from the uncommunicative office staff. A couple finally went over and asked about next steps when we were 7min. from pickup time. The employee told them to walk to the drop off (3 blocks away) to catch the bus. Mind you, there is NO SIGNAGE at the stop. So, I asked the couple if I could follow them. We waited, IN THE RAIN, as a whole hour passed, and still no bus. I called the customer service number 25min into waiting, and the line would hang up after the electronic message played (stating that the 3:05pm bus was still on time...though it was 3:30pm). The crazy part is that a student, also waiting for the bus let me know that she had actually spoken to someone earlier, who got irritated when she asked what the ETA would be. Oh, and the app that is supposed to show the bus in-transit (like on planes or uber), did not work. Once the bus arrived, the driver was clearly irritated. By the time he got there, the New York bus was also supposed to be arriving (but, surprise, it wasn't there). So there was a large group of confused people trying to get on, and getting turned away. The driver refused to honor any of the pre-selected seats, and barked at people to get on. Thankfully, the trip home was uneventful, aside from the poor wi-fi connection. Lesson learned - don't take $5 buses, because you get what you pay for. Also, I miss the Eastern Bus :( read more

Extremely disappointing and unprofessional For our wedding, we rented a bus to transport our American friends & families from Paris to Normandy. The bus showed up 30+ minutes late, nobody contacted us, the phone number that was given was wrong, we had to figure out by ourselves where the bus was. And they refused to drop the guests at the designated location without telling anyone. 40 American people (not French-speaking) where left with all their bags 1km away from the agreed location. I recommend choosing a more competent company with acceptable client servicing for all transportation needs. read more

Really frustrating experience using flixbus. Booked a day trip from Bordeaux to San Sebastian with flixbus. Bus scheduled to arrive at 6am so we were at our stop 15 mins early. My ticket clearly stated take EL210 bus in direction of Madrid. At the stop, a bus arrived with a completely different route no and destination displayed. San Sebastian was not listed as a stop across the digital display. Just to be safe, I checked with driver and Im told "San Sebastian, non!" and batted away like a pesky insect! Assuming our bus was still due, we waited until 7.15am but none came. Furthermore, the live tracker on flixbus website was not working. We eventually resigned ourselves to the fact that we were not going to San Sebastian that day despite having paid 51€ for return tickets. But wait for it!!! Later, when I contacted customer service on facebook requesting a refund, I'm told that the bus did in fact arrive on time and tough cookies, we missed it!!! So either Im being lied to or the bus that arrived was in fact our bus despite having a completely different code and destination displayed!! Perhaps the driver just couldn't be arsed dealing with me or maybe he couldn't be arsed stopping in San Sebastian!! I have since tried explaining several times to flixbus what happened but I am just told email here or ring here without ever receiving any resolution! Their customer service tactic is obviously to frustrate the customer to such an extent that they will just give up and drop their complaint. In future, I will only travel with companies who do not treat their passengers so despicably. read more

This was my first time taking Flixbus in the States and I think it will be the last. It started off fine. I'd read enough reviews to know that the pick-up point at 6th and New York Ave was a parking lot with no benches or anything, so I knew what to expect. I got to the DC location on Friday to take the 8am bus. The bus was there, the driver was there, checked off people's names, and we took off. I was assigned a seat in the front, which I was happy with. The driver, an older Asian man who smoked, was the type to honk at cars and curse when they moved too slowly for his liking. But I was okay with that--I mean who doesn't curse at slow drivers every now and then? The downside was that the air didn't seem to be on consistently, so it got a little warm sometimes. We stopped at a rest stop for about ten minutes which was nice. We made good time and I got off in New York at the Chinatown stop. But oh boy, the return trip... On Sunday, I got to the midtown Manhattan location (again, no shelter, no benches, no nothing) at 11:30am for a bus that was supposed to leave at 12:05pm. I asked the first person I saw where the DC bus was, and he motioned that it was on the other side. So I went to stand near the wall. There was a slight drizzle, but I had my umbrella, so I was okay. Then a man came and told me and another guy who was standing there that we couldn't stand there and to move across the parking lot to an awning (one of those scaffolds builders use). This put us near the street with a bunch of other people also waiting for the bus...And in the direct path of the many unfortunate souls who suffer from substance abuse or mental illness or both. We witnessed one man raging at the top of his voice about something as he stumbled past us on a sidewalk filled with people and luggage. I was just glad that that didn't set him off even more. At 11:45, I start looking at my watch and craning my neck to see if the bus had arrived. Three buses showed up, so I'm thinking, any moment now. 11:50, 12, 12:10, nothing. Then, I hear someone say the bus has been cancelled. I wait a few more minutes to see if the guy who seemed to be in charge was going to come and tell us anything. Nope. So I went to find him and asked him if the bus was cancelled. The first thing he said was, "Yes, but don't be mad at me, I'm just the messenger." Then he said, "You'll get an email and a refund and they will reschedule you." That's when I realized that there are no actual Flixbus officials onsite and that they basically contract everything out. I'd suspected as much because honestly, the drivers I saw all looked just a smidge sketchy...older, didn't seem to speak English well, if at all (which I normally wouldn't care about, but it seems like that might be important for an interstate driver??), not many teeth (but to be fair, I have issues about teeth), that kind of thing. So I waited for the email (didn't come till much later). I decided to reschedule myself and saw a 1:10 bus. I quickly scheduled it and breathed a sigh of relief...until something told me to look at it again. I did and realized it was a bus for 1:10am THE NEXT MORNING. I cancelled that and tried to find a same day bus. They were all for much later and I was not about to get dropped off in a rat-infested DC parking lot at night. I can handle a parking lot in the daytime, but night is a whole 'nother story. I looked over my options and found another bus company (Washington Deluxe) that had a 3pm bus that day. I'd never heard of them before and was hesitant to book. But since I was not about to pay $250 for Amtrak, I decided to take my chances. SO GLAD I DID. Their pick-up was W. 36th at the Pig & Whistle and the men there were much more professional looking. One guy checked off names and another guy was the driver. The cost was comparable, about $42. They didn't have assigned seating, but since I was early, I settled into a seat at the front. There was a bathroom on board, so no stops along the way. I'd have liked a stop just to stretch my legs, but at least the air was on and consistent, so I was okay. The drop off is at the DC Union Station bus bay (NOT out in the elements), so it was a quick walk to the metro and then home. Okay, back to Flixbus. So not only did they cancel, not reschedule same-day service, while they did issue a refund (I need to check that) they had the gall to issue me a 25% off voucher on my next trip. A voucher that's only good for a month. Are you f*cking kidding me??!! At the very least, people should get a free trip on them that's good for a year--in addition to a refund. Flixbus, you're great in Europe, but you totally suck here in the US. My advice, go with Washington Deluxe, or literally any other bus company, but to echo another reviewer, "DO NOT USE THIS BUS SERVICE." read more

"Maddening" is the word I would use to describe my Flixbus experience. It all began with a 3.5 hour trip from Groningen to Amsterdam Schiphol. The first 2 hours of the journey were nice, aside from all of the charging ports being broken. The trouble began when we approached the first (and only) stop on the journey. When you buy Flixbus tickets, you're assigned seats. However, nobody actually sits in their designated seats for the first part of the journey. When we reached the stop, people got onto the bus expecting their seats to be empty-- which obviously was not the case. This resulted in some pretty heated arguments. To make matters worse, the bus conductor only spoke FRENCH?? WE WERE IN THE NETHERLANDS!! Anyways, we still made it from one place to another, so at least that was successful, but it wasn't a particularly enjoyable experience. read more

Flix Bus should be avoided for their complete lack of professionalism, customer care and failure to follow up on serious complaints. On attempting to board at Bratislava for Vienna, I was verbally abused by a driver for no apparent reason other than asking to confirm the bus's destination shortly before departure. Despite making it clear I did not understand Slovak, he continued to shout at me for a prolonged time. Later, as the queue started boarding, I was again shouted at after presenting my ticket. Again not understanding the issue - and having left plenty of time for the driver to scan the QR code - I attempted to board, whereupon I was grabbed and physically manhandled off the bus. At this point, several other passengers intervened with the driver on my behalf. I asked one who spoke Slovak what the issue was, and was told "the guy just hates his job and is having a bad day". When I complained to Flix Bus customer support I twice received a generic copy/paste reply with a mealy-mouthed apology for "inconvenience caused" and that "your experience did not match your expectations". Both failed to address my complaint or request for disciplinary action against the driver. After this absolutely pathetic response by Flix Bus, and on reading multiple similar complaints by other customers, I will be avoiding them from now on. read more

If you are thinking about using Flixbus services, think again. Not only did I have one of the worst experiences with the drivers - where they verbally harassed me and threw (literally threw) my suitcase off the bus breaking the wheels at the end of the trip -- which they did with many other passengers -- I had the worst experience with customer service. When I was booking my ticket with Flixbus, the kept saying there was an "error" in the system when I was putting in my card details. But after three different cards, the third worked and everything was fine. OH WAIT, no Flixbus also charged those other cards, too, without giving me a ticket--so, I essentially paid 3x for one ticket. When I reported this to Flixbus (probably via email and phone 10x) they kept telling me my name and transactions are not in the systems and REFUSED to refund me. So, if you're looking to be ripped off and treated like cattle being herded -- ride Flixbus. If not, think again. read more

Poor!!!!! Booked a ride from Cedar City, Utah to Las Vegas airport. 1 week later they moved the time of the shuttle several hours later. Now the shuttle would arrive after the plane left. They will not issue a refund, only a voucher. But after that kind of unreliability, we will never use them ever. Still trying to get my $93 refund. read more

I WAS HIT BY A FLIXBUS ON THE PEDESTRIAN CROSSING! I was just about to cross the road in the Bus Terminal in Munich ZOB. I had a big suitcase and a bag and just before getting off the pedestrian zone and going on the pavement the bus which was currently driving hit me! There was even a man in the back telling the driver which way to go and even both of them did not seem to look off the was someone in the pedestrian cross! I was so shocked and started crying but the driver did not even come out to see if I was OK or not! read more

Ride FlixBus if you have ample time to WASTE! You definitely get what you pay for...delays, delays, delays! These people had me waiting in the freezing cold in Eindhoven for 4 hours and never offered compensation or even a reason WHY the bus had been delayed. Next time, I'll just hop a flight! read more

Don't use this service they are unreliable and the workers are incompetent. I had a bus that was supposed to get me to my destination that was scheduled to leave at 9:15 and was later delayed to 9:31. I ordered an uber to get me there by 9:31 then 15 minutes later the app sends me a notification saying my bus will actually arrive on time. At that point I would have been late for my bus because my uber was suppose to get me there by 9:31 instead of 9:15. I call their customer service app and their customer service hotline employee tells me that they can't find my reservation even though I'm looking at it in the app. I later on call and try to get a refund and they refuse to give me a refund telling me I should have been at my bus on time even though it was delayed then said it would arrive on time. This isn't the only issue I have had with flix bus it has cancelled on me multiple times and it is unreliable. read more

Tried Flixbus and the price was awesome! Honestly, you get what you pay for. I did pay the extra like $1.43 to get seat 2D. One of the drivers asked me to just sit somewhere else since someone was in my seat I told him no, that I wanted the seat I reserved. The other driver got on, I showed him my ticket and he did ask the person in my seat to move to his seat. The seats numbers don't match the numbers they give you, so it is setting a perfect storm of confusion The alternative for me would have been the AZ shuttle at $45. So I am fine saving $30 and having to stand up for myself to get my seat. I got to where I needed to go alive read more

Worst experience ever. They cancelled the bus trip but didn't inform any of the waiting passengers. All the passengers in bus stop were waiting for more than 8 hours as we continuously kept getting text messages saying the bus is delayed. Finally everyone had to arrange their alternate transport. Worst bus company ever. read more

This was my first and last time using Flixbus. First of all my name was listed as a Mary Smith in their system so I had to wait to board while they worked it out. Then I get on the bus and was sitting in my reserved seat when I was asked to move for someone else who had paid for reserved seats. This experience is terrible considering you're not the only game in town. I chose you over Megabus because you were cheaper but I guess you get what you pay for. read more

My bus from DFW Airport to Austin, Texas was delayed multiple times and showed cancelled at times and finally departed at 8:25 PM instead of original scheduled time of 4:10 PM. However, instead of driving to Austin, it drove the opposite direction or to Denton, Texas, then two hours later returned to the DFW Station again! In neither stops there were any additional passengers to board or depart but the bus nevertheless made these stops. Then the bus ran out of fuel near Temple, Texas where we had to wait another 40 minutes to refuel the bus before finally arriving in Austin Texas at 2:20 AM on Sunday or the next day after the departure!! In fairness to Flixbus, I shared the feedback with them first but I as I have not received a response in weeks then decided to post this review. read more

We paid for tickets and FlixBus didn't show up for a DC to NYC trip. About a dozen passengers were waiting 30+ minutes prior to departure. FlixBus claims the bus came and departed, but that is not true. They don't want to refund passengers for a service not delivered. Try another bus line and save yourself the hassle. read more

Trieste-Ljubljana-Trieste Flixbus was 20 minutes late leaving Trieste for Ljubljana. Two workers checked everyone in before boarding and the workers loaded the luggage by destination. There was free WiFi. Flixbus was 45 minutes late leaving Ljubljana for Trieste. One worker checked everyone in one at time on the bus. The other worker did nothing except open up the luggage area and allow everyone to load their own suitcases in a random, chaotic manner. There was no WiFi. read more

This was my second time riding FlixBus.The first time the bus was late 10 minutes and that was understandable.. However my second time I get an email stating that the bus is delayed by "5" minutes, which the arrival time of the bus was scheduled to depart at 4:40 and here it is 15 minutes later and still no bus. I called customer service and that person could not tell me where the bus was only that it "might" be about 15 more minutes late!! I wouldn't mind the wait if the bus stop was inside an air conditioned building.. However, we're sitting out in the heat awaiting for the bus to arrive.. yet the customers haven't received an updated via phone that the bus would be an extra now 20 minutes late as I type this. FlixBus need to factor in traffic when scheduling their bus routes. Signed, One angry consumer!! read more

I've used them a few times, All of the staff are rude, all the time - desk, phone and drivers. They're often late. Once i got left behind with ALL of my stuff on the bus and was forced to buy a new ticket, and my belonging were not cared for, they would not help me retrieve it (everything I owned) even though I got the very next bus to the same destination. I also left my camera on another bus and called 30 minutes later and they refused to help. "just fill out the form" - if they had retrieved it (as they often have 2 bus drivers - but refuse to contact either of them) or told me where to meet the bus - the loss or theft could have been prevented. Instead you have to fill out the form and wait a month for them to email you and tell you they didnt find it (even though my camera had my name and number on it and I told them straight away). I was advised I could make a compensation claim but that appears to be a lie. There seems to be a different definition of "customer service" where their definition somehow involves none of it. read more

Extremely disorganized and horrible, horrible cancellation policy. Their tickets do not have the proper address of where buses depart or arrive, and their customer service is pathetic when you try to get in touch with a supervisor. I tried multiple times calling and getting in touch with someone who could help me with the information of where my bus would depart from and I could not get ahold of anyone. Finally I had to buy another ticket from another company, and when I tried calling to get a refund they didnt honor it, and they didnt want to put me through to a supervisor. The supervisor's name was Dennis Panqa, I had to keep calling throughout the day until I finally got ahold of this person who of course, did absolutely nothing. Never again using this service, it is disappointing and a very average business. read more

I took a day trip from Amsterdam to Bruges in Belgium. When I booked the bus, I would have 5 full hours in Bruges. Shortly after I booked, I got an email from Flixbus telling me that the times for my bus had been changed. The new schedule only gave me 3 hours in Bruges. Not much I could do about it. On the way, we stopped at a McD for a 15 minutes break and the drivers did not come back to the bus for over a half hour. We were 30 minutes late getting to Bruges. I hooked up with some people in Bruges who love the town so made sure I made the most of my time there. Then I went back to the Flixbus station to get my return bus and there was not bus. There were others waiting. We waited over 2 hours not knowing anything about what was going on. Other Flixbuses came through the station and one driver finally told us the bus was frequently 4-5 hours late because it is coming from London. So we all got busy and got alternative transport to Amsterdam. I immediately cancelled my return bus trip with FlixBus. But I later learned that the refund they gave me was less 15 Euros as a cancellation fee. I tried to argue that they never provided me the "promised/contracted" service of a ride to Amsterdam. The customer service person was very nice and totally powerless. All she could do was apologize on behalf of FlixBus. So in addition to having to find my own way back to Amsterdam and paying for it, they charge a fee to refund me for their non-performance. Customer service told me it is the schedulers who are at fault here. I asked why they schedule a pick-up in Bruges when they know that the bus is almost always 4-5 hours late. She had no response. I just told her to let the schedulers know that the abandoned passengers think they are incompetent. She said she would pass that on. Poor business practices in both scheduling and in providing "contracted" services and then charging me to give me my money back! NEVER AGAIN! read more

This has by far been the worst experience on a bus I have ever had. To start off the bus was a full hour late while waiting at the lot for the bus, I was able to go back to my house change clothes and then head back, with apparently enough time to spare. When I got there a young man was checking people in. Even while checking us in you could see he had an attitude and obviously didn't want to be there. When we finally were able to get everyone on bored he gave a monologue about how he "didn't give a shit when we got to where we were going just that he got there." And how he had been driving for two months and hated his job and wanted to be a flight attendant. So I already knew what kind of ride this was going to be. He got us lost twice trying to find a truck fuel station, and had us driving in circles up and down the great vine all the while threatening to throw anyone who had anything negative to say off the bus. I'm currently still on this ride from hell and will be here for the next couple hours, a ride from LA to San Francisco shouldn't take more than 8 hours MAX but from what it looks like this might be a 10-13 hour trek across California. I should have just taken the blue MEGABUS at least they have a top window level. read more

I was really u comfortable to take the flixbus on because of the reason below. 1. The bus departure time was delayed One hr and half late 2. The bus route was LA- strip - downtown - henderson. But suddenly the driver changed bus route to LA - henderon - downtown - strip without any prior notice. We literally passed by strip from 5 mins away. 3. Driver was really rude. Did not answer the question by pretending she is listening the music. read more

STAY AWAY!! This is one of the worst bus services I have ever encountered. Please be cautious using this service on the east coast USA. The buses don't stop at scheduled stops and the customer service is HORRIBLE!! Rude and unprofessional. Buses are not of the best quality when you can catch them and rarely arrive to destination as scheduled. Beware using this service. I will never use again read more

Rude driver. Bus 2 hours late . Shady company picks up behind a remote restaurant that has no idea they pick up there. The staff were all surprised when a whole bus full of people was stranded there for 2 hours in a cold snap. When another bus for the same company arrived and we asked the driver for help he was incredibly hostile. He wouldn't address any of our frustrations or worries. We had a small child who was ill. We asked him to shelter her on his bus and he refused and actually told us he would not speak to us. The company sent a charter replacement, but it was a different brand and we weren't sure we should trust it. The gentleman persuaded us he was from them, but we were worried. Freezing day. Stranded. Horrible stress not knowing what company we were now traveling with. Never ever ever use FlixBus. read more

I would NOT recommend using Flix Bus. I was supposed to leave NYC to Boston at 4:45 pm. This bus never showed up! At 6:45 pm the company still had no idea where the 4:45 pm bus was. Instead, they made us buy a new bus ticket for the 6:45 pm bus. And they refuse to refund me for both of the bus tickets. Also the bus drivers and customer service line was extremely rude. read more

currently on the one from Phoenix to Las Vegas. both ways its been a bad ride. first, do NOT pay for the assigned seat, drivers dont care or check its a rip off to pay for them, there was people up and moving seats. Now to the worst part, the BUS!!!! both ways we didnt get on that fancy green flixbus they advertise but instead a run down black volvo bus that rattles aaaaaaaall the way through the ride and is extremely rough on the road!!! the seats are falling apart, there are NO TRAYS!!! couldnt do any way on the 6.5 hour trip first ride because they advertise trays but do not have them. the bathroom is absolutely disgusting!!! theres dried fluids everywhere!! use the bathroom when they stop do not use it on board. theres not even a small faucet to wash your hands. the bus itself is disgusting. the driver is rude and emphasized during a stop/break how he would leave at exactly 10:41am and if you're not on board too bad right... he left at 10:36!!! I was on time but had it been someone else he would had left them! I would NOT recommend this company to anyone!!! I totally regret not driving myself and counting on this service. The price does not justify this at all. read more

Recently 2 buses DID NOT SHOW UP AT ALL without explanation or notification, I had to buy train ticket in one case and spent the night in hostel in second case, because the was no other transport! But Flixbus won't refund me for those two tickets, the customer service was very rude and in the end stopped replying! Other two buses were over 4 hours late to their destination, but Flixbus is denying the delay and claims the buses were on time, so no refund either! Today I had to buy a ticket for a short trip because there were no other options, I was really hoping for no problems for such a short trip, but the Flixbus app failed mid-purchase and charged me twice for the same ticket! But the customer service claims it was somehow my fault to double-book so no refund again! I don't know what is going on with this company, this is terrible and inexcusable and I'm never using Flixbus again!!! 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
