SeatsThe FlixBus journey from Vienna to Prague was very positive overall. The bus was on time, the staff were friendly and helpful. The seats were comfortable and the bus was clean. I particularly liked the view of the countryside during the journey. The wifi worked reliably and the toilet was also well maintained. The only suggestion for improvement was that the legroom was a little limited, but it was fine for the short journey. Great value for money!
