Flixbus Hamburg Copenhagen recent customer reviews

This guys are a joke! The bus has been moved from 3pm to 17.50, only to actually set off at 21.00. We are still on the bus, arriving the next calendar day, at 2.30 am. …and dare they ask how the journey ‘was’. Well….one day later, the journey still ‘is’. Stir clear off this company, avoid them like a plague!
