1. Purpose and acceptance

These terms govern use of Terminal Notes at flix-bus.site. By using this website, you acknowledge that it is an independent informational and educational travel resource. Its articles offer general planning guidance about European coach travel, terminals, arrivals, luggage, transfers and related topics. They are not ticketing, booking, dispatch, customer support, legal, immigration, financial, medical or safety advice.

Terminal Notes is not owned, operated, endorsed, authorized or represented by FlixBus or another transportation operator. References to FlixBus identify a separate transportation operator only. The site does not sell tickets, accept payments, maintain bookings, provide accounts, alter reservations, process refunds, choose seats, quote live fares, or confirm live availability.

2. Information limits and verification

Travel conditions change. Routes, permits, stops, timetables, schedules, service days, availability, fares, boarding rules, luggage conditions, amenity provision, accessibility processes, border procedures and local public-transport services can change without notice and may vary by operator, journey, country, passenger and date. Content on this site may be updated, incomplete, simplified or no longer current when you read it.

You are responsible for independently verifying the information that governs your actual trip before travel. Use the relevant current official operator source for route, station, booking, luggage and service conditions; use official government sources for passport, visa, entry and border requirements; and use the relevant local public-transport authority for final-mile service information. An illustrative route discussion on Terminal Notes is never a guarantee that a route operates, is available, has a particular price, departs at a particular time or uses a particular stop.

Our content can help organise a travel decision. It cannot replace the current official source that controls that decision.

3. No schedule, availability or policy guarantee

Terminal Notes makes no guarantee that any route, operator, stop, connection, facility, policy, timetable, schedule, availability, fare, luggage arrangement, border process or local transit service will be available, accurate, suitable or unchanged. We do not provide real-time information. Do not rely on this site as the sole basis for a time-sensitive decision, a cross-border journey, a protected connection or a transport purchase.

Third-party operator policies and government requirements apply on their own terms. You should read them directly and follow the instructions of relevant operator staff and public authorities during travel. If an article and current official information conflict, treat the current official information as controlling.

4. Third-party links and services

For convenience and educational context, this website may link to third-party sites, including official transportation operators, governments and public-transport authorities. Those sites are not controlled by Terminal Notes. Their content, availability, privacy practices, terms, transactions and services are their own responsibility. A link does not create a partnership, agency, endorsement or recommendation, and we are not responsible for decisions made on or through external sites.

When you leave Terminal Notes, review the external site’s current terms and privacy information. Any booking, payment, account, support request, travel contract or personal-data submission is between you and the relevant third party, not Terminal Notes.

5. Appropriate use and intellectual property

The text, editorial selection, layout concepts and other original content published on Terminal Notes are protected by applicable intellectual-property laws. You may read, share links to and make reasonable personal use of the content. You may not reproduce substantial portions, systematically scrape, republish, sell, misrepresent as your own, or use the content in a way that implies Terminal Notes’ endorsement without prior permission. Third-party names and marks remain the property of their respective owners and are used only for identification or editorial context where applicable.

Editorial photographs are attributed as identified in site materials and are illustrative. Do not assume they can be copied, relicensed or used outside this site; obtain permission from the applicable rights holder or source where needed.

6. Reasonable limitation of liability

To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, Terminal Notes and its content providers are not liable for loss, cost, delay, missed connection, missed departure, inconvenience, data loss, travel disruption, injury, border decision, accommodation issue or other consequence arising from use of, reliance on, inability to use, or information obtained through this website or a linked third-party site. This limitation does not exclude liability that cannot lawfully be excluded.

Travel involves personal judgment and changing conditions. You remain responsible for your documents, booking decisions, health needs, belongings, compliance with applicable law and verification of current official information. Take appropriate professional or official advice where your situation requires it.

7. Changes, contact and governing context

We may revise these terms as the website changes. The version displayed on the site applies to its current use. If a term is found unenforceable, the remainder should continue where permitted. These terms do not create a transport contract, agency relationship, partnership or employment relationship.

For a factual correction, editorial feedback or question about these terms, contact [email protected]. This email address is not operator support. For travel-day issues, bookings, refunds, route confirmations or policy questions, contact the relevant official operator directly.
