Pros

Price very reasonable

Bus was on time

Wifi available

Cons

No toilets on the bus

I used a FlixBus for the journey to Vienna. What was positive was that the bus arrived on time at the station. In addition, wifi access was available. However, the low price was particularly attractive for the trip. The only annoyance was that there were no toilets on the bus. For this, extra breaks are taken during the journey.

Pros

Bus on time

Wifi available

Cons

No toilets on board

Seats uncomfortable

For the bus trip from Munich to Vienna, I used a Flixbus. We drove during the day. The journey went smoothly. The bus was at the station on time right from the start. There was also wifi access on the bus. There were no toilets on board, so breaks were taken during the journey. The seats may be suitable for short journeys, but not for long ones. In that case, it is advisable to take an additional seat cushion with you.

Pros

Secure

Cheap

Cons

Uncomfortable seats

On a positive note, the bus arrived very punctually. The journey was safe and on schedule. Independently, I recommend everyone to always book a seat. The wifi was very slow. There were also no toilets on board, however the bus did stop for a break. On the negative side, the seats were uncomfortable. Over the rather long journey, you already feel your butt hurting after a short time. This was a direct journey.

Pros

Cheap

Quite clean loo

Sockets

Cons

Arrived 30min late

Bus driver could not really speak German

Extremely uncomfortable seat

No wifi

My Flixbus journey from Munich to Vienna was a very mixed experience. The toilets were surprisingly clean and there were plenty of power sockets, which was handy. The price was also very reasonable, but you're used to that from Flixbus anyway. However, there were several negative aspects: We arrived 30min late, which was annoying. In addition, the bus driver didn't really know German and was rather unfriendly. The seats were also extremely uncomfortable and there was no wifi, which is really disappointing in this day and age. Overall, I give the trip 2 out of 5 stars. There is real potential for improvement here.
