How is bus travel in Europe: Entire journey from Paris bercy to London Victoria with FlixBus

[@kevinniehaus5618]

You payed waaaaay to mutch. :D I did a trip from Germany to London for 1 Euro. :D

[@frodeskibrek]

If you think about it,how much of the drivers salary and the upkeep of the bus did you contribute with ? Absolutely nothing. Still feeling proud ?

[@kevinniehaus5618]

Haha i dont care. Not my problem.We had a german word for it called "Lockvogelangebot" - I dont know how to translate it to engish. I also fly to London for 1 Euro by Ryanair ones a year, normally in january. I also drive in the usa from Boston to New York to Washington and back to Boston for a Dollar. ;-) Here my travel story (wirtten in german) kevinniehaus.wixsite.com/kevinalleinunterwegs/single-post/2016/07/24/USA-Teil-11-Mit-Megabus-von-New-York-nach-Washington-DC

Great! The bus is not only very inexpensive but it allows you to see some of the countryside. You are right about bringing your own food! Those prices!

Get it to replace the extortionate national express for distance express coach travel in the UK.

On the train, as your coach was heading to the UK...you had to walk back to france for the toilet :D

I like flixBus, used them many times in Germany, Hamburg - Berlin, always on time, always a good price, just show the driver your ticket on the app and your sorted. Like most operators, the sooner you book, the cheaper the ticket. Like your channel, I just subscribed.

[@tantelilis3017]

Wiw..... Berlin.

[@dvidclapperton]

It's shocking that National Express are so overpriced, charging something like rail fare levels. Yet it's rvn more shocking that whenever there's talk of something like Flixbus entering the UK domestic distance express coach service market, they're scoffed.at as being far too cheap and the seating being far too uncomfortable even though the seating is actually just as comfortable as of National Express. and those supposedly ridiculously cheap fares of Flixbus are something more alike to what you will find in the continent for distance express coach travel. I hate all these private monopoly travel companies in the UK free to charge whatever extortionate fares they like.

So, you depart from Paris at 10:30 A.M. Paris time (approx.), and arrive at Victoria station at 18:30 P.M. London time (approx.) with a 1/2-hour stopover for lunch? All for just 10 Euros in advance? I am impressed! Is it the same cost in the opposite direction?

wow! I am watching from the Philippines and this is my first time to see how the tunnel looks like. thought it was a freeway tunnel all this time but I was wrong. But it makes me wonder for the driver. In France you drive on your left but in UK for all I know they drive on right.

[@tonybramley7649]

@@Olivierantain Wow amazing great invention

[@richardtalbot8769]

I learnt on many trips across Belgium avoid the services and see if there is a petrol station attached as it’s often cheaper. This sometimes annoys the coach driver as they get free food depending on how many people eat there.

[@Geno2733]

Most of the trip looks like the Ohio Turnpike between Youngstown and Toledo. Also, most people usually take a bus OR a train -- never both at the same time. lol 10 Euros for the trip doesn't seem bad, considering it took 6 hours. Last time I rode a bus for an extended period of time was a bus from Pittsburgh to London (CAN). $67 Euros one-way. 12 hours one-way. I have a car now, so I can make the same exact trip in HALF the time and for a THIRD of the cost.

[@lincolnpaul1814]

Adam g. I live in Germany and highway rest stops with restaurants do not have free toilets. They cost 75 cents and that has nothing to do with a restaurant providing toilets for its customers. Most restaurants have toilets even without 15 seats.

Cautionary Tale: I rode with Flixbus and had my life ruined On Sep 25, 20:30, I boarded on the Flixbus at the Berlin Central Bus Station bound for Zurich Central Bus station. In addition to my checked-in luggage, I have one small waistbag/fannypack that I wear on my body during the journey, which holds all the valuables including passport, wallet with 130 euros in cash, all credit cards etc. When the bus arrived at the destination, I got off to retrieve my suitcase but left my waist bag (yellow and green in color, Eastpark brand) on my seat. On arriving at the terminal stop Zurich, I walked away from the bus to take the tram nearby. About 500 meters away, I realized I’d left my waist bag on my seat. I returned immediately, the bag was gone. The bus was already loading new passengers for a new trip since it arrived 2 hours late according to the schedule. I asked the new driver, he didn’t speak English and simply did not care. The 2 drivers from Berlin were off duty and went to sleep, he told me. Since this bus arrived in Zurich late, it was already filling up with passengers for the next planned trip to Stuttgart. There were a few passengers on board and I asked them if they saw anything, they told me no. Since my seat was at the mid-bus entrance by the partition board, it’s directly under the surveillance camera. I believe by reviewing the footage we can find out what happened. To this day, my legitimate request has not been answered. I called the service center of Flixbus in Germany right away and told them the whole incident, believing that in this mostly timely manner the bag can be found easily found without too much trouble. How wrong I was! The simple, automated line designed to pawn off passengers which the guy on the line, in his most indifferent tone, must have repeated a thousand times before goes, and I quote: submit the loss&found form! My 5 day trip to Zurich was naturally ruined. I made an official police report in Zurich with which I later returned to Germany as a kind of explanation for not having an ID when passing the border control. I specially mentioned the surveillance camera which could be used to discover the whereabouts of my bag. 5 days later I embarked on my return trip with Flixbus. It was a red-eye ride and I had to change midway for a train in Heidelberg. Due to the enormous stress and emotional fatigue endured thanks to the ruined trip, I left my suitcase uncollected when I got off at my stop. I soon realized the mistake minutes after the bus drove off and immediately called Flixbus help center, the only advice they provided was ‘to ask someone you know to pick it up for you along the stops the bus will make on this trip’. I do not know anyone in those cities, to which he suggested to submit a loss and found form via their website and wait for the news, cause that’s the best they can do, naturally. I came back to Berlin totally devastated. I’d submitted loss and found requests for both of my lost properties to Flixbus not only once, but three times in total, and each time they came back with the automated message: we’re sorry, but we could not find your belonging. I’d paid a personal visit to their company, and the staff there, clearly underpaid and overworked, said there’s nothing they could do. Nothing, not even a word of apology. The course of my life in Germany flipped 180 after the unfortunate ride with Flixbus. 2 months later, I had to leave the country for good since some documents I had was irreplaceable. I blame myself for the thrift, for having wanted to save 60 euros and made the poor choice, for not having done my homework properly beforehand. The ill reputation of Flixbus as an irresponsible, bloodthirsty company can be revealed a simple google search away, enough to discourage any penny pinchers to think twice before travelling the perilous road with them.
