Passenger from all over Europe will benefit from high quality, great value and a sustainable way to travel.

The teams in Berlin, Munich, Paris and Milan are handling network planning, customer service, quality management, marketing and sales as well as ticketing, pricing and the company’s business development. Regional bus partners – frequently family-run companies built on generations of success – are responsible for the day-to-day running of routes and a fleet of buses, all based on the highest comfort and safety standards. Therefore, innovation, entrepreneurial spirit and a powerful international mobility brand go together with the experience and quality of a traditional mid-tier industry. www.flixbus.com/company
