Very poor. When we booked the advertising suggested a modern, comfortable bus with allocated seats. Not so. Furthermore we were told we could only use the toilet for ‘number 1’s’ (the driver’s words’. We were running late due to delays at the US border and as a result the next stop was limited to 10 minutes, which meant the driver had only a 10 minute break. He appeared to spend much of the trip talking in his phone and rarely had 2 hands on the steering wheel. Very disconcerting.

FlixBus system somehow showed that my ticket was “refunded” after the bus driver scanned it and let us in the bus from Toronto to Niagra Falls. He was telling us to get off the bus and FlixBus even told him to call the police if we didn’t get off.
Customers consistently praise the drivers for being professional, friendly, and informative throughout their journeys. The overall service is appreciated by many users who highlight smooth rides and attentive staff. However, some reviews mention issues such as a lack of Wi-Fi availability or inconsistent rest stop options during trips.

The experience was pleasant. The drivers where very professional. However, the lady at one of the transit stations was so rude. She spoke to people as if they’re in the plantation ❤️.

At first the bus departing from Toronto was 30 minutes late and there was no reliable boarding place. It was more like a pick spot at the side of street. The toilet in bus was very dirty as well. No one ever cleaned it.
