Green and smart mobility to discover the world

Flix is a global mobility provider and has been changing the way millions of people in Europe travel since 2013 under the FlixBus brand. As a unique combination of technology startup, internet company, and traditional transport operator, we have created Europe's largest long-distance bus network in a very short time. Since 2018, we have also offered the first rail services and an intermodal offering under FlixTrain. Thanks to easy booking and a daily growing range, we offer millions of travelers the opportunity to discover the world for less. Our green long-distance buses and trains meet the highest comfort, safety, and environmental standards and offer an ecological and convenient alternative to private transport. 

FlixTravel Experience – our recipe for success

Our success is based on the digitalization of a traditional mode of transport. With technological innovations such as a groundbreaking booking and ticketing system, the FlixBus app, free Wi-Fi, GPS live tracking, and automated delay management, we enable a new way of traveling. Through smart network planning and dynamic pricing management, we always offer our customers the best deal. When operating our FlixBus network, we rely on close partnerships with traditional medium-sized companies: Regional bus partners – often family businesses with decades of experience – are responsible for the green FlixBus fleet. When operating our long-distance FlixTrain trains, we cooperate with Europe's most successful private train operators. This is how innovation, startup spirit, and a strong, international brand meet traditional quality.
