No car, no problem: A ton of new Flixbus routes with WiFi are coming to Alberta

Transportation options are growing in Alberta, with a new economical intercity coach bus option operated by FlixBus starting this week.

FlixBus, North America’s fastest-growing intercity bus service, will have bus routes from multiple cities and towns in Alberta beginning on Friday, April 5, 2024.

Its fresh entrance into Alberta is in addition to its already existing service in Ontario, British Columbia, and Quebec.
