The journey from Aachen to Maastricht is really very short at half an hour, but I was completely satisfied with it. The journey was actually cheaper with Flixbus than with any other alternative. My feeling was that it was mainly commuters who use this route. The bus itself was well filled, but I was able to travel my route very comfortably and nothing bothered me. The bus driver was also very courteous. An absolute recommendation from me!
