FlixBus Red Deer Calgary recent customer reviews
It was a great trip to Calgary international airport. Driver was awesome and took the normal hours despite of snowy slippery conditions.
5 out of 5 stars
Rafaela J.
My journey was fine the only problem was that my journey was only made necessary because the driver of the previous bus refused to wait for two extra minutes for my husband’s glasses to be delivered to him. I had to take them with me and book the next available bus to Calgary in order to give them to him before his flight takes off. So, mixed feelings on this one.

Jovita E.
The address of departure was different than the one I had booked my trip from. Turns out the bus didn’t even pick up from the place that was described on the ticket but in a different parking lot and I almost missed it. The driver was really nice but wasn’t even given the right pick up address. The bus was also late departing and arriving, with once again, a different drop off. Not impressed by the company…
Users consistently appreciate the friendly and professional staff, as well as the comfortable and clean buses. Many reviews highlight a smooth booking process and positive travel experiences.

The Canada Bus Red Deer Calgary recent customer reviews
The bus driver was very helpful and kind. However I would like to have had a seat with a foot rest. At my age (78) I need to elevate my legs as much as possible and the front seat he gave me had none. I had a seat with a foot rest booked with my ticket but I did not get it. A small thing that would have made my trip so much better.

Passengers were allowed to take big items onto the bus rather than in the lower compartment. The bus was only just over half full but most people kept items on the seats leaving very little space.
