Cleanliness of the toiletSeat reservationsThe journey with Flixbus was uncomplicated, punctual and had a very good price-performance ratio, as long as you booked the ticket in time! The connection to Dresden is reliable and you don't have to change buses. The bus had working wifi, power sockets and also a toilet, which unfortunately wasn't as clean as I had hoped. The bus driver was very nice, but communication was only possible in English. The only disadvantage is the seat reservation system. Unfortunately, there is no display, so you have to hope at every stop that you don't have to look for a new seat.

NoneAbsolutely fantastic bus journey to Dresden. We left and arrived on time. The bus was already quite full, but my seat and the next seat were reserved for me, so I was able to travel in comfort. The ticket including two seats is still cheaper than other means of travel and I think that's commendable. The driver was nice and the passengers weren't annoying or too loud. It was a relaxed journey and I can only recommend the bus. Punctual, clean and cheap.
