I booked a FlixBus trip from Amsterdam to Paris on March 18 at 08:05. First, the bus was delayed with no explanation. Then it never arrived at all. When we went to the office, they told us they would reroute us through Brussels and issued new tickets—putting us in the last-row seats.
What should’ve been a 6-hour journey turned into a frustrating 9-hour ordeal.
To make matters worse, although our original booking through the app clearly showed no baggage fee, the new tickets issued required us to pay €10 in cash just to check a small carry-on bag. But once we boarded, we saw other bags—even larger ones—placed directly in the aisle, without any extra charges.
This was incredibly unfair. We were inconvenienced, delayed, and forced to pay extra for something that was included in the original purchase. FlixBus made zero effort to compensate us for the lost time or the added cost.
