FlixBus Edmonton Calgary recent customer reviews
Dislikes: It was unclear when booking that we had 4 stops in Calgary. I wish I had known it was not direct.
I thought I had chosen good seats but when I arrived I was in the back by the washroom.
The stops took additional time for patrons and the driver to smoke. And we arrived 30 minutes late.

The driver of that bus was very dangerous and he should not have a license. I have used your services many many times and usually they’re pretty good this time the driver was atrocious and I felt very unsafe the whole drive. He was speeding and driving erratically.

Loved how fast and efficient the experience was, the ride was only 2 hours and 45 minutes including a 15 minute break at Red Deer. The only complaint would be to have a sign or specific location to meet. A few other passengers as well as myself were confused on the exact location to wait for the bus. Other than that it was good.

The bus ride was great up until red deer when they switched drivers. The driver who came on was very rude. And told ever single person on the bus the could keep there bags either on there lap or on the seat beside them if it was empty but if there bag was to big it had to be put up top and there were so many people who had backpacks who kept them on the floor or on there lap so I tried to both those things and she wouldn't let me do either and came back when I was taking off my jacket and putting it in my bag she stood there and watched me and said in a loud rude tone “ put ur bag up top now so we can leave.” and wouldn't even give me time to get my water out or anything then proceed to say I wasn't allowed to get it for the rest of the trip because we can't stand while the bus is moving. I'm very upset and feel very disrespectful because she was literally walking down the bus looking under seats and I was the only one she told to put my bag up. The same size as everyone else too. And in fact I could have squished it to make it smaller because it's mostly empty. I have pictures of peoples backpacks under there seats. Even the girl beside me.

Would not do it again. Hot & sweaty, no air and fully packed bus. The lady sitting next to me had a huge back pack and 3 coats on her lap. There were 2 people (both men, go figure) that put their bag on the seat next to them, occupying space. This should be monitored and not allowed.
