Users have reported a positive experience with Flexibus, highlighting the friendly staff and comfortable journey. However, there was an issue with ticket directions provided by a third party, which led to confusion about the bus location. Fortunately, this did not affect their travel as the bus experienced a delay.

Flixbus Edinburgh Perth recent customer reviews

Flexibus was good although the third party that sold the ticket gave me the wrong directions to the bus and i spent 60 mins chasing the location and would have missed it had it not been delayed.

I couldn’t determine which bus was for me and the advice by the drivers was try this stop and then try another stop. No one could tell me where those buses were departing from. In the end I made my own way and paid for another ticket. It would have been easier not to pre ordering a ticket. I only hope the return bus exists as I need it to catch an onward flight. It does make me feel uneasy.

I missed my buses and connections because the bus stop indications at the start were incorrect. I had to replan my whole journey and day with the more than one hour delay.
