Very good except flying js in red Deere is under construction so there was no place to get a sandwich. The driver from Edmonton to Calgary, Catherine is an excellent driver.

The bus ride from Lloydminster to Edmonton can use a bit more working on. There was way more passengers that had their devices speakers on to where everyone can hear their cell phones as well as their discussions on their phones. The transfer of bus drivers could go more smoothly, as one passenger either at the stop or not and the driver wasted more time waiting or making a call to find out if the passenger was coming or not. Greyhound and Red Arrow did not wait nor waist anyone else’s time for one passenger. As they were on a time frame and kept to the schedule.
The bus ride from Edmonton to Calgary went smoothly. The driver introduced himself and let everyone know about the etiquettes of the bus, he also let everyone know the stops and times and how long the stop in Red Deer would be. He was very courteous to each passenger and checked to see if we were comfortable. I would like to give a shout out to this bus driver his name is Kelly and highly recommend this driver.

Adding an additional bus stop to pick up three passengers is not a reasonable trade-off if it compromises the scheduled arrival time in Calgary. Removing the Panatella bus stop, on the other hand, creates inconvenience for many passengers.
Based on 14970 reviews, the company was rated 3.5 stars on Busbud. Travellers were especially satisfied with the ticket access and the temperature but often complained with the Wi‑Fi. FlixBus ticket prices on this trip start at $54
The driver from edmonton to calgary was rude. He left us in edmonton downtown station after we buy some food there and we got him in South LRT station and He scolded us instead of showing some empathy. Thinking of riding flixibus again
