Flixbus Catania Rome recent customer reviews

I don’t like that English was not anywhere. I don’t like that I could not find out about the stops. I did not know that there were 9 stops and I was not informed of where to get of, no help, didn’t understand nothing, almost got off at wrong stop if it wasn’t for a passenger that stopped me. Then I reached Triburtina I asked how do I get to the airport and was told by Flexbus ticket counter that Flexbus doesn’t go to the airport, which is a lie, we saw Flexbus there. Not happy and Flexbus is very hard for Americans.
