The bus was delayed for two hours. Had to wait in cold weather for that time. Additionally, no confirmation on if the bus was coming or not.

Both of my trips with FlixBus were amazing. The drivers were very friendly, welcoming, and nice. The whole ride was so smooth as well. I really enjoyed my experience as well as my family although we are a first timer time in the area and taking the bus.

The drivers were very friendly and helpful. But while waiting to be transferred to the next bus at Calgary, I had no where to sit; I had to stand with sun scorching for an hour and forty minutes.

The bus was extremely uncomfortable. The seats were narrow and there was no arm rest between the seats. There were no assigned seats, safety briefing, or water.
