      FlixBus has announced its plans to enter the Indian market last year is slated to start its operations this month.

The routes will include 59 stations and about 200 connections in total.

      In strategic relationships with local bus operators, FlixBus will use its unique technology platform to help partners improve their business operations. FlixBus, which leads in network planning, revenue management, and yield optimisation, aspires to provide an efficient and smooth travel experience for both passengers and operators by committed to quality, safety, consistency, and great customer service. Furthermore, FlixBus will only run premium bus models equipped with BS6 engines, complying to high emission standards that dramatically decrease pollutants while reaffirming the company’s commitment to environmental sustainability.

      Andre Schwammlein, CEO, Flix said, “We are delighted to announce FlixBus’ expansion into India, a large move as we reach our 43rd country and one of the largest bus markets globally. Entering the dynamic Indian market is a huge opportunity for us, filled with anticipation and the recognition of the significant potential to change the mobility landscape in India. Our mission is perfectly fitting what India strives for – sustainable, safe and affordable travel options for all. Acknowledging the growing demand for such services in India, we are committed to upholding consistent quality, safety, and delivering a seamless customer experience in every region we operate.”

      Surya Khurana, MD, FlixBus India said, “We are thrilled to introduce our services in India. Our commitment to safety, comfort, and cost-effective journeys make us the global choice for millions exploring diverse destinations. Our success lies in close collaboration with local operators, optimising for growth and efficiency. We champion shared mobility to reduce congestion and emissions in cities. We’re anticipating a transformation in the Indian intercity travel space, we’re excited to lead the charge, setting a global standard for seamless, reliable, and affordable intercity transport.”

      Philipp Ackermann, Ambassador of the Federal Republic of Germany to India & Bhutan said, “The German transportation major Flixbus is coming to India! I am convinced that it is a great opportunity for both of our countries. Both governments cooperate under the umbrella of a Green and Sustainable Development Partnership to modernise the Indian energy sector and to help reduce CO2 emissions in many other sectors, including transportation. Having a private company providing sustainable transportation as a business model and having the reduction of CO2 emissions as part of the company’s DNA is very encouraging. Strengthening collective travel in order to reduce emissions of the transport sector is a global undertaking that requires significant efforts from both the German and Indian Governments, our societies and industries. Making bus travel more convenient and accessible is an important lever to increase the attractiveness of collective transport.”
