Why travel with FlixBus?

More places to go, less fuss getting there. FlixBus gives you an affordable and convenient way to travel along Australia’s east coast and beyond, with comfortable buses, useful onboard extras and digital tools that keep your journey close at hand.

Affordable fares and great value

Spending less on getting there means more to spend once you arrive.

FlixBus combines affordable fares with useful extras already included in your journey. On Australian services, that means your standard luggage allowance, free Wi-Fi, USB charging and onboard toilets are part of the experience rather than things you need to start adding one by one.

Fares are dynamic, so the amount you pay can depend on demand and how far ahead you book. If your plans have some wiggle room, comparing dates and departure times can help too.

What to expect on board

A bus journey is still a journey. We just think it should be one where you can settle in, stay connected and arrive ready for whatever comes next.

You can explore the full range of services available on board FlixBus before you travel.

Bring your luggage

Weekend bag, suitcase, backpack containing far too many “just in case” outfits - there’s room.

For journeys within the Australia, your FlixBus ticket includes one small soft bag or backpack up to 7 kg and one piece of check-in luggage up to 20 kg. Your smaller bag stays with you, while check-in luggage travels in the luggage compartment.

Need to bring something extra? Additional and special luggage can be added on eligible journeys, subject to available space and the relevant fee. Surfboards up to 200cm can travel as special luggage too, but they need to be booked in advance.

Manage your journey with the FlixBus app

Your phone already comes everywhere with you. Your journey might as well live there too.

The FlixBus app helps keep the essentials together before and during your trip.

Accessible travel with FlixBus

Travel works better when more people can use it.

FlixBus supports passengers with disabilities and reduced mobility, including people travelling with wheelchairs, walking aids and other mobility devices, as well as passengers with service animals. We work with our coach partners to make their coaches as comfortable and accessible as possible, although accessibility at stops can vary because individual stops are managed by different local operators.

The support you need and whether you should contact FlixBus before travelling will depend on your circumstances and the mobility equipment you’re bringing. If you want to travel seated in your wheelchair, you can add it while booking, at least 24 hours before departure.

A more sustainable way to travel

Sometimes sharing is the smarter move.

Collective coach travel gives more people the chance to make the same journey without putting another private car on the road. According to Flix's 2025 Avoided Emissions Methodology, passengers choosing Flix instead of alternative transport options helped avoid an estimated 1.5 million tonnes of CO₂ globally in 2025.
