FlixBus Edmonton Red Deer recent customer reviews
Everything was good other than having allotted the seat numbers. If I am to sit with someone of the opposite gender who I don’t feel comfortable sitting with, I won’t enjoy my trip

Elizabeth M.
The bus was almost a 1/2 hour late, then the seats had 1 person in them so I had to sit beside a guy and the seats are so small. I barely fit in them. I’m a big woman, but not that big. The seats are smaller than airplane seats very uncomfortable ride.

Kye D.
Was on time with a pleasant driver.
What I didn’t like was I didn’t know if I was at the right spot to catch the bus. No sign and the people at the site didn’t seem to know that there was even a bus coming.

Ebus AB Edmonton Red Deer recent customer reviews
Sadly the E bus left early. I was there at 2:23 and it had already left. They say they left a few minutes after the set time; all I can say is my truth by my car clock which is set right.

Bonnie N.
The journey on the bus was great; however, I booked the ticket for my sister. I made an error and had placed my own name. I was forced to cancel the ticket and when I went to rebook it cost double the amount.
2.0 out of 5 stars
Jennifer K.
They delayed us for over an hour in Edmonton, without informing us of the reason. We (passengers) later realized that they had mechanical issues. After an hour and 40 minutes, they got us another bus for the trip. No apology was rendered whatsoever. The driver never communicated about the issue. This is the worst service I have ever had! I always travel by bus to Red Deer but with other bus services. I had to book a last-minute trip and that’s why I had to use this bus service. I WILL NEVER RECOMMEND Ebus.
Customers have shared overwhelmingly positive experiences with this bus service, highlighting the friendly staff, clean and comfortable buses, ample foot space, and a relaxing ride. Many appreciated the stress-free travel option compared to driving in challenging conditions. However, some noted minor issues such as non-functioning power outlets and repetitive video playback during their journey.

Brittney S.
Terrible. Missed the bus because of a local marathon. No options to hold the coach. Ticket isn't refundable. Funds can't be used on a future commute.

Khalil D.
There was a free single seat right at the front that was right across from me that was free I would of much rather been told I could seat there instead of beside someone whose I don't know . I would of completely understood if the bus was full but it was not .
Customers appreciate the courteous service, cleanliness, and reasonable prices of the bus company. However, some suggest getting bigger buses for intercity routes to avoid feeling cramped in winter clothing. There were also concerns about inaccurate drop-off locations mentioned in a few reviews.
Cold Shot Edmonton Red Deer recent customer reviews
Terrible. The freight truck with seats would never pass a safety inspection. No shocks. Awful experience. I will be reporting this company to the Alberta Department of Transportation.

Nothing was enjoyable, rude driver, disgusting smell in the mini bus, no seat numbers
1.0 out of 5 stars
Ishan W.
Courteous service, clean bus, reasonable price. My only concern is I could swear when I booked it the sad said we would be dropped at the Quality Inn, and in reality we were dropped at the Flying J, which wasn't nearly as convenient for transit for me.
