FlixBus Edmonton Calgary recent customer reviews
The bus was delayed. Moreover, I was warned about that delay in th morning of the day of a ride. As I had a flight from Calgary airport, I had less time for boarding, and that situation was stressful for my daughter and me.

Everyone was seated together whilst there was four rows that had no people. They did not even try to spread the seating. Also this is my 2nd time taking this bus this week and bith times the wifi had not worked! I have payed too much to not have any wifi and be late to my stops.

First of all the date was wrong on the ticket. I couldn't get through on the phone to exchange it for a different ticket right away, because I couldn't call. I emailed the company and no one got back to me 😞. I was supposed to be in Edmonton for a important court case and missed it. This is not a good experience.

The bus kept breakdown on the way and I had gotten late for my flight due to which I missed my flight. Please have your buses up to date with there maintenances and repairs. A bus with 10 passengers losing power which en route to Destination is not professional.
