FlixBus is a unique combination of tech-startup, e-commerce platform, and transportation company. FlixMobility is a young mobility provider, offering new alternatives for convenient, affordable, and environmentally-friendly travel via the FlixBus and FlixTrain brands. Thanks to a unique business model and innovative technology, the startup has quickly established Europe’s largest long-distance bus network and launched the first green long-distance trains in 2018 as well as a pilot project for all-electric buses in Germany and France. Since 2013, FlixMobility has changed the way over 100 million people have traveled throughout Europe and created thousands of new jobs in the mobility industry. In 2018, FlixMobility launched FlixBus USA to bring this new travel alternative to the United States.

From locations throughout Europe and the United States, the FlixTeam handles technology development, network planning, operations control, marketing & sales, quality management, and continuous product expansion. The daily scheduled service and green FlixBus fleet are managed by bus partners from regional SMEs, while FlixTrain operates in cooperation with private train companies. Through these partnerships, innovation, entrepreneurial spirit, and a strong international brand meet the experience and quality of tradition. The unique combination of a technology start-up, e-commerce platform, and classic transport company has positioned FlixMobility as a leader against major international corporations, permanently changing the European mobility landscape.
