After reading some of the reviews I was a little skeptical to use FlixBus for my Brussels to Amsterdam trip, but took a chance since it was such a short ride and so much cheaper than some other alternatives. I was pleasantly surprised! They were right where they said they'd be to do the pickup early in the morning. I booked online in advance and just showed the driver my Apple Wallet QR code on my phone, and we were off! They have a baggage hold under the bus for your actual suitcase/luggage so you are able to free up space on board and just bring your purse or backpack/snacks to your seat. They have WiFi on board, which got a little spotty in areas, but did work most of the time. There is also a USB port above each seat, so I was able to get my phone charged up and ready to go for the rest of the day once we reached Amsterdam! There is also a screen at the front of the bus showing what is in front of you, so you can watch the route you are on. One thing I really appreciated: they had little feet pedals at each seat so your feet have somewhere to rest. I have short legs so often times they are just swinging uncomfortably on these types of bus seats, so I loved that feature! And the seats are pretty comfy too, from my experience. The staff was very nice on the trip from Brussels to Amsterdam. My friend felt a little queasy as we boarded, so the driver said she should sit up front in the "jump seat" next to him so that she could get a little more fresh air than at the back of the bus and also have the less "bumpy" seat that is more centered over the front wheel. Overall for this short route (2.5 hours) it was definitely manageable and comfortable, and a lot more inexpensive than some alternatives

Late bus from l'aquila to Rome for no reason i called customer service and they were useless didn't know why the bus was late, the only reply I got was we are always on time. The bus driver was rude and lazy, not even apologizing for the late arrival and barely looking at you while talking to you, he didn't make any kind of an effort to make up on lost time during the stop in l'aquila. I know one thing for sure I'm never choosing them again. Terrible service experience. Seats are way to small compared to bus lines operating on the same route. read more

The bus was 40 minutes late. We called their hotline and they DO NOT speak English!! We had no idea where the bus was or if we are at the right spot. We asked a German/English person speak instead who was waiting for the same bus. Everyone kept saying it was "coming". Finally after the 2nd phone call it arrived and we went on. Later finding out the back window was shattered, broken. They drove off regardless which was fine by me I just wanted to goto Prague. They made a big circle and 15 minutes we were back to where we're at. They signaled us to get off. We had no idea when we were getting on or when the next bus was. From the other travelers I heard it was 15 minutes then also 2 hours!! We tried calling the hotline again and now the hotline was not valid. They had blocked our numbers apparently so all we can do was email. After 2 hours we heard from someone else they got an email. We checked our email and finally got some confirmation we got a revised booking for the 15:15 bus. Our original bus was suppose to be at 12:15. We finally got on but the poor others who didn't have internet connection had to wait for stand by and not know if they'll get on. I reassured they would because I like little looked at the booking and there was space. We all got shit seats but at least we're on our way. I will never book FlixBus again. read more

And get this, after I've already return from my vacation I get a text that they are sorry about our bus being in an accident and we are able to take the 13:15 bus 060 LIne. Use eurolines it's much more organized and you get an actual person to speak with at inform when we took our trip from Amsterdam to berlin. Or book the train. read more

Hello people, I´m going to tell you my extremely bad experience I had during my FIRTS and LAST experience with Flixbus. Please read carefully, because this company won´t sustain you in case of emergency and you better think 10 times before you buy a ticket with them. I was travelling from Germany to Milan in November 2016 with departure from the main bus station in Munich. The bus did two stops: during the first one, the driver asked 1 by 1 the passengers if they needed to go to the bus bathroom, showing us the bath door keys in his hands, because the door was locked. At the second stop comes the worse: he stopped again in the middle of the mountains in the Swiss somewhere in an area where there were only toilettes and a small kiosk, nothing else! I was waiting as other people, to go to the outside bathrooms and the driver was waiting right next to me. I just went outside the bath and instantly figured out that the bus had left without me, I was desperate! My phone was in the bus, as well as my laptop and another stuff. I didn´t know what to do, I was screaming for help and hopefully two people who stopped to have a cafe at that kiosk were concerned about my situation. I asked one of them to call Flixbus customer service and after an assistant answered the call, I explained her what just happened. I begged her to call the bus driver and tell him to come back at that service area where he had left me since just a few minutes. I gave the customer service informations regarding departure time from Munich and arrival time in Milan and you know what she said? IT IS NOT POSSIBLE TO CALL THE DRIVER AND TRACK THE TRIP! THEY DIDN´T CARE ABOUT ME AT ALL! I mean, how can this be possible? Couldn´t she really make a call? After the second person next to me, just heard what the FLIXBUS service said, he called the Swiss Police, which hopefully forced the bus to come back and pick me up. After I stepped inside the bus, I was screaming at the driver asking him why didn´t he checked the passengers were missing, we were only 10 travelers and I was right 1 seat behind him! Do you know the answer I was given? "WHO DO YOU THINK YOU ARE? DO YOU THING IS THE FIRST TIME HAPPENING?" I was like WHAT? Please be careful, I think the situation I ran into, was somehow weird: the bus bathroom was working at the first stop, at the second stop it was instantly broken (as the driver claimed). He said to me he did me a favor by coming back, meanwhile he was forced by the police to turn around. It is not worth to save money and risk people like these cheat you. I Hope my review was useful and will help you in the future. Cheers read more

I rarely would give any company a one star review or even an Uber but FlixBus is really unprofessional. Their Old Town San Diego bus does not have any specific signs around the address 2728 Congress Street even though that is the address they tell you to show up. I show up & I see no sign around to direct me. I walk around looking & then I see the bus driving really fast. I wave & continue & even tripped on the street but they were heartless. Then I go onto the phone, which says I would be talked to shortly, & wait 50 minutes to talk to a representative who only told me this was my fault for not doing any research on the bus stop & refused to give me a refund. Do not choose this service, especially in the San Diego region. I had a great experience here in this town until I encountered this bus service to visit some old college friends who moved to Los Angeles recently. I am also going to complain to the Better Business Bureau about this awful service which made me have to travel to a different bus station that treats me better than them. read more

So, A few weeks ago I decided to try out FlixBus rather than taking Mega Bus like I usually do. FlixBus's cheap prices caught my eye and I was willing to test it out. Big Mistake! On my way to my destination I arrived at the bus stop 30 minutes before the arrival time. The bus came about 20 minutes late, something that I wasn't to concerned about because there are many factors that could come into play for a 20 minute delay. However, when boarding the bus, I showed the driver my ticket from my phone and even offered to show my picture ID as well. He didn't scan the bar code (which i'm not sure why it even is there if it's not used..) and told me that my name was not on the list from his phone. I clearly bought a ticket though and the driver understood that and let me on. The ride was very uncomfortable compared to the mega bus double-decker seating, but I honestly didn't care about all that I just was eager to get to where I was going. Now, on my way back home... I once again arrived at the stop early and waited for an hour! the bus was scheduled to come in at 5:35 am I arrived at 5:00 am the driver didn't get there until 6:20 am. Once the bus was there I showed the driver my ticket and he didnt even look at my phone all he did was ask me my name. He looked through his list and said that my name wasn't on the list therefore I couldn't board. I repeatedly told him to just look and scan my ticket and that I even had an ID. He refused and said to call the company and ask what the problem was cause he wasn't going to let me on! I called but of course they didn't answer it was 6 in the morning! The bus left and I had to buy a mega bus ticket for the following day. I called FlixBus and they assured me that I did buy the tickets and that it was odd that I wasn't marked off on the list. They told me they couldn't issue a refund on the phone but that I could do it online. I emailed them my statement and they flat out said that it was my fault that I "missed the bus that was on time" and that I couldn't get a refund. I told them again that I didn't miss the bus I was the first one there and they wouldn't let me on! They still wont give me a refund of my money. Very poor customer service! Don't recommend at all. read more

Horrible customer service. I bought a ticket from them once and was stupid enough to save a payment method on my account... A few days ago, out of the blue, they made two (!) unauthorized withdrawals from my account. When I tried to contact the customer service, I was told repeatedly that I need to wait and be patient because they are so busy right now. This is just outrageous. read more

WORST BUS COMPANY EVER. My boyfriend was supposed to take Flixbus from Amsterdam to Salzburg, he put our snowboard bag on the bus, TOLD the bus driver he would wait outside, then the bus just DROVE AWAY with no warning, no final call, nothing! Then my bf asked a different bus driver from Flixbus to radio this bus and the bus driver REFUSED!!! All he said was, "HOTEL." Then he called Flixbus, they said they would either put the bag in the lost and found in Munich or let it come back on the same bus the next day, he asked for it to come back the next day but when he came the next day the bag was not there and none of the bus drivers knew anything about it. Then the people on the phone said, "maybe it was stolen?.." A bit later they found it and said it was in the lost and found but that we could not get it for SEVERAL WEEKS. My boyfriend went there, to the lost and found, where they told him that they have the bag (with his name on it) but REFUSED TO GIVE IT TO HIM. They just said we have to wait, for no reason at all, just because they "don't have the key." NOW WE ARE IN AUSTRIA ON OUR SKI HOLIDAY WITH NO SNOWBOARDS, NO CLOTHES, IT IS COLD!!! AND FLIXBUS REFUSES TO HELP US ALTHOUGH THEY KNOW THAT THEY HAVE OUR BAG. ALL THEY DO IS TELL US THAT WE HAVE TO WAIT. THE BAG HAS OUR F****** NAME ON IT!!!! AND THEY WON'T REPLY TO YOUR EMAILS UNLESS YOU WRITE ON THEIR FACEBOOK PAGE FIRST read more

BEST PRICES, THE WORST SERVICE ! THEY WERE LATE, UNTIL NOW THEY DIDNT REFUND MY TICKET TO THE NEXT DESTINATION, I HAD TO BUY A NEW OVERPRICED TICKET. I agree with opinions of other people here.. book another company or low cost airlines never travel with flixbus ! I wanted to go from Bratislava to Munich, I paid for the tickets and AFTER they send me it has stopover in Vienna for 2 hours. So I changed tickets so I wouldnt have to wait in rainy weather at 5AM in Vienna. And.. My bus was late, no one sent my SMS bus will be late and I missed my bus to Munich, I went to Flixbuss desk service in Vienna, they told me I have to call to another country or send them email and they will give me a new ticket. Their service didnt help at all, of course I hadnt wifi (there is no WIFI in Flixbus at all), so I had 2 options.. to buy overpriced ticket to Munich (+50EUR) or Bratislava (+25% of original price). I said to driver I'm comming back bc WE WERE LATE and I missed my bus to Munich and he started to yelling at me in front of 15 people that its not his fault.. When I came home I wrote them complaint and I wanted to know what they r planning to do with my missed bus, THEY DIDNT EVEN BOTHER TO REPLY.. SO IMAGINE I WOULD STAY IN VIENNA WAITING FOR A NEW TICKET. P.S. Its true most of the drivers, service dont speak english at all. I had to spoke with him local language. P.S.2 In my bus I could have not buy from driver. He sent me to Flixbus desk at station and he told me I have 5 minutes, until they leave. read more

Whatever you do please NEVER use this company. Spend a little more money on another company such as Eurolines or Student Agency. On my first trip with Flixbus from Amsterdam to Prague the tire exploded. Although I understand these things happen and it is not in anyone's control the manner in which the situation was handled was atrocious!! The driver did not speak Dutch or English so we were unable to communicate with the driver. What little he could communicate resulted in him asking everyone on board if they knew how to fix the tire. At 1 a.m in freezing weather and under rain we were forced to walk about a mile to a local McDonalds which had just closed and we sat under the freezing rain..we waited almost three hours in the rain until a restaurant worker who was cleaning called the local police to help us get shelter. It was the POLICE that helped us. The company did NOTHING for us. No apologies. No reimbursements. Nothing. When I tried to reach the company for help the representative on the line was aggressively rude when I told her it was 2 a.m and we were still in the rain she responded with "I know what time it is! It's 2 a.m here as well." To top things when we finally got back on the road the bathrooms were filthy and the Internet was not working... Save yourself much trouble and NEVER use this line! read more

Very bad service. Today I had a ticket from Kolding (Denmark) to Berlin and Prague, but bus did not show up. I was waiting 3 hours at the bus station and after many phone calls with Flixbus they told me it just wont come. The only explonation was that service on this route provides some other company and they cant control that (I bought ticket directly from Flixbus website). Plus they refused to arrange another transportation even after I higlight that is very important I arrive to the destination tody! read more

I took Flixbus from Berlin to Dresden and back - it was horrible! Way too Dresden was okish, or I should rather say hardly bearable, we had no wifi and the toilet smelled like a sewage therefore of course when someone opened the door to it the whole bus was smelling like a moving pile of s***. On the way back it was even worst - 15 minutes before the departure I've got sms saying that the bus was delayed by 1hour. Some people on the bus just said that they cannot wait that long and left. 15 minutes after planned departure the bus arrives, we get in - then we go to another station in dresden where we wait another 15 min, then for some reason we go back to the original station and pick up more people while waiting another 15 minutes. All together 1 hour delay - we just spent driving back and forth between the 2 stations LOL. After we finally moved the wifi was not working again and the toilet was even worse than before. I'm surprised nobody threw up. Don't recommend! read more

I used flixbus for two times and they were disasters. I will never try them again. The trip was just 1:30 hours from Eindhoven in Netherlands to Dusseldorf in Germany. The first time, the bus had around 45 minutes delay. The bus driver was very rude and angry. He wanted to compensate the delay. So, he started driving in a crazy way and we almost had an accident. The second time, the bus had almost two hours of delay. They did not send any mesage to any of the passangers who were waiting. Their app was not updated neither and their telephone service was refering me to their website and their app. So, simply no response. luckily this time the driver was polite and he was driving in a proper way but I arrived so late that I missed my next train from Dusseldorf. I promised myself to not to buy any ticket from them anymore because they are very bad at servicing and they are not very responsible. read more

A couple of days ago I was helping my cousin to get into the bus to Germany at the Victoria Coach station. She had her leg injured and bandaged. The downstairs area was empty except two girls sitting there. The driver said to my cousin: "upstairs". When she tried to explain about the leg and asked if she could sit downstairs, the driver got mad, shouted: "up or out", jumped out of the bus, pushed me (I tried to record his behaviour on my phone) and shouted to the other driver: "throw her luggage out". He yelled to her: "you are not going by this bus", when she questioned why, he answered: "because this is my bus". He pushed me again as I was trying to record, I called the police as this was clearly assault but before police arrived, my cousin's luggage was thrown out of the bus and the bus left to Germany. My cousin was left with the valid ticket, crying, vulnerable, in a terrible state. We both complained to the company, a lady called "Silke from Flixbus" answered that she can not talk to me because I am not their passenger and to my cousin that she should ask the passengers to switch seats (she ignored the fact that my cousin was not even allowed into the bus because she dared to ask if she can sit downstairs). So, the customer service does not work either. I also raised the issue of safety - one of the drivers looked like he was on something!!!. The only hope is the police who is investigating the assault and the media - my cousin is going to inform the media in Germany. Very scary experience!!! Very shocking response from their customer service!!! read more

My friend and I missed our original bus due to a change in the pickup location which wasn't pointed out very well on the ticket. We had shown up at the original pickup location (asked staff around if we were in the right spot) and no bus showed up. Our ticket had two portions as there was a small layover in a town. We decided to take a train to catch up to the next stop to reconnect with our bus. The train set us back 100 EURO! We showed up at the next stop. The bus was 15-20min late and then the bus driver would not let us board. We had a ticket for the first portion and second. However, their check in system would not allow the driver to check us in on his phone even though we could clearly see our names on his phone. We spoke with him and he laughed and did not allow us to board. We needed to get to our final location so had to pay 59 EURO to board a bus we had already paid for. I have spent 3 months now emailing (back in my home country now) Flixbus with only an offer to provide credit towards a new trip. I don't think I want to ever ride with them again. I want the Money back that was wrongfully taken from me as I already had a valid ticket for the journey. On top of that both the customer service agents and bus driver were very rude through the process and they just don't seem to care. The day that was meant to be fun and only cost us 45 Euro turned into a terrible experience and set us back the original cost plus 159 EURO. Could have flown to our destination for that! I'll try another provider next time before I have spend another penny on them. They also promise WIFI and it does not work! read more

I had a horrible time with this company. In the past I had no problems with it, but recently I tried to book a bus to Amsterdam and the website kept taking me to all these different pages. They have a hold on my card from a perches that they said they couldn't see and that I have to email them my bank records as proof in order to get a refund. After all that I still needed the ticket so when I looked online to try and book it again the website kept saying that there was an unknown error. I called them again they told me to try a new card and browser, which was bullshit because there was money on my card. Also I used the card and browser have been used in the past to book busses so I knew that wasn't the reason. They then told me that I could book over the phone but that would cost me 3 extra euros to do over the phone because THEIR website wasn't working. So not only did they charge me twice for the same bus, the price for the bus went up with in the two days so I had to pay an extra 10 euros along with the 3 euro service charge all because their website wasn't working. read more

I just traveled this weekend between Paris - Amsterdam. I took direct bus after seeing reviews about delays in change over buses. It was a good comfort ride. Drivers were descent and polite. Punctuality was not bad as delays due to traffics in highway are out of our hand. But my only suggestion would be Flixbus must try to place at least one attender in bus origin points to clarify customer's doubt. For example, the boarding point for Amsterdam is in front of Amsterdam Sloterdjik station and bus comes to the boarding point from depot just 10 mins before the start time. Almost all passengers gathered there at-least 30 to 40 minutes before but there was no Flixbus staff to guide us on where to wait or to get any directions on the right boarding point. Considering the number of buses that starts from each origin point, just rising ticket price by 2 Euro is more than enough to employee a staff in every point. read more

I tried ordering bus tickets from Vienna to Prague online but when I ran the credit card payment a message came up that it timed out and I needed to try again. I checked my credit card and saw that the card had actually been run and the money was taken but I never received any confirmation number or any emails with tickets or anything like that. I wrote several times trying to resolve the issue and get my tickets but there was only an automated response that they were working on it. After I had to go elsewhere to buy my tickets I have written twice asking for a refund and have again received no response or refund. It has now been over a week and I still have not heard back from them. They have a number to call but they charge you up too 42 cents a minute to use it and i am sure they are trying to make you call them so that they can rip you off for that. I would definitely not recommended using this company it seems that there customer service is horrific and now I am waiting for my $93 bucks back but who knows when that will be, I may just have to charge it back. 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

Unprofessional, Unreliable, and Disrespectful Following a tornado in Gary, IN, my fiancé and I booked FlixBus tickets for Wednesday at 1:25 PM ($70 total) to get to safety. When the bus arrived, the driver explicitly told us it wasn't our bus. However, live app tracking proved that was our scheduled ride. Because of the driver's error, we were stranded and had to pay another $100 for someone to drive all the way from Lafayette to pick us up. To make matters worse, FlixBus customer service was outright horrible: Repeated Misgendering: As a Trans woman, I clearly and politely requested not to be called "sir." The representatives completely ignored this and continued misgendering me throughout the calls. Refusal to Escalate: I asked to speak to a manager seven times, and every request was denied. Disrespect & Unprofessionalism: I called five separate times trying to get a refund or simple answers, only to receive increasing attitude and hostility until they hung up on me multiple times. FlixBus took our money, stranded us after a natural disaster, provided zero accountability, and treated us with total disrespect. Save your money and book elsewhere. 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

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
