Lux Express: FAQs

1. I’ve got a voucher, how can I print my ticket?

2. What services are offered by Lux Express to people with reduced mobility?

  • Travelers with a profound or severe disability can receive a 100% discount on their ticket, along with the person who is accompanying them on their trip.

3. How much luggage can I take on a Lux Express Bus and can I bring my bike?

  • Each passenger can bring one hand luggage item that weighs less than 11 pounds (5 kg), and smaller than 18 x 14 x 8 inches (45 × 35 × 20 cm). In addition to this piece of hand luggage, each passenger is allowed one piece of luggage (such as a bag or a briefcase) for no charge. It must weigh less than 66 pounds (30 kg) and be smaller than 28 x 12 x 22 inches (70 × 30 × 55 cm). These items will be kept in the luggage compartment on board the bus and then handed to the passenger by the bus crew when requested. Passengers can bring more than one piece of luggage if space is available in the luggage compartment and if the bus crew agrees to accommodate it. Whether or not the extra luggage is accepted will be determined at the departure location, and the passenger will not be charged extra for an additional piece of luggage. Bicycles are not considered standard luggage. Bicycles must be stored in the luggage compartment of the bus if space is available. This will be determined by the driver immediately before the departure. Front wheels must be dismantled and should not have any sharp parts that are protruding. In the event that the bicycle cannot fit in the luggage compartment, the driver will make a note on the passenger’s ticket that allows it to be switched to the next departure without a service fee. Tickets can also be refunded according to the Lux Express Group Ticket Sale Rules. Please note that routes operated by Lux Mini coaches cannot transport bicycles.

On international routes, pets are typically not allowed since the travel time is greater than 4h and can be difficult for animals. Guide dogs are allowed on any route.

6. Why might a bus be delayed?

  • Bus travel can be delayed by several factors that are outside the control of drivers and Lux Express Services, such as inclement weather, traffic problems, road issues, and other unpredictable events that may prevent the punctual arrival of your coach. However, the professional and dedicated staff at Lux Express does everything possible to ensure that your journey is as smooth and seamless as possible.

7. My last bus got canceled, what should I do?

  • If your bus is canceled, Lux Express will connect you with the next available departure from your location for no additional charge.

If you choose not to utilize any of these options, you can receive a refund from the company within 14 days.

8. What should I do if my bus is late?

  • If the bus is delayed by an event outside the control of Lux Express, there are no additional accommodations offered due to the unpredictability of events.

Lux Express: Exploring the Balkans and beyond

Tucked up in the northeastern tip of Europe near the Baltic Sea, you'll find the Baltic states. Geographically close, Estonia, Latvia and Lithuania are often grouped together, but each country has its own distinct air.

Thanks to their proximity, it's easy to discover all three countries on one trip. Lux Express buses can take you between the capital cities—Tallinn, Riga and Vilnius—as well as to some more remote destinations with ease. Explore Tallinns' important Freedom Square—known as Victory Square during the Soviet era in Estonia—before taking a four-hour bus ride to Riga. Here you can spend a day exploring the city's old town, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, which is a treasure trove of Latvian culture and architecture. For the last stop, hop on another Lux Express bus to Vilnius. In just under four hours, you'll be discovering this slept-on gem. With its vibrant atmosphere, rich history and picturesque buildings, you won’t forget Lithuania’s capital anytime soon.

If you want to get into nature, then we recommend a trip to Pärnu. Just a two hour bus ride away from Tallinn, the town is a popular summer destination for locals. With long stretches of sandy beaches, a busy harbor, spa hotels and tasty restaurants, it’s a holiday destination that will please everyone.
