Advantages
The journey went on timeThe ticket is cheapDisadvantages
The internet signal was weakThe journey by bus is highly recommended and I will gladly book the bus again for my future trips. The ticket is cheap and very easy to book on the online portal. It is then sent to you by email in digital form and can be shown on your mobile phone when you start your journey. Everything is very simple and clear. The bus left on schedule and the journey was stress free and there were no disruptions, either from traffic jams or noisy seat neighbours. A pleasant journey with punctual arrival in Chemnitz. Great service and fabulous value for money. Highly recommended.
Advantages
PriceJourney timeFrequency of tripsDisadvantages
Always lateComfortVery fullWith Flixbus, the journey takes about 3.5 hours, plus at least half an hour's delay due to Berlin's city traffic. There is no need to change buses, there are three stops in Berlin. Especially on Fridays, the bus is very crowded, so comfort is quite limited. WC is on board, wifi and sockets work. Seat reservation is possible, but only for certain seats. Some bus drivers are very nice and greet all passengers, others don't speak a word. Price-performance ratio is okay, tickets cost between 16 and 35 euros depending on when you book.
Advantages
Punctual journeyGood climate in the busDisadvantages
Everything in orderWe had a good journey on the bus to Chemnitz. It was best to book your seat in advance, it worked well and there were no double bookings. The start of the journey was stress-free and the departure was on time. We had no delays and the journey was good. The bus driver did his job well and the atmosphere on the bus was pleasant. The price for the journey was reasonable and everything was fine.
