Flix SE, the global passenger transport service provider, today announced record figures to mark the 10th anniversary of FlixBus.
With global revenue in excess of €1,5 billion and EBITDA profitable operations, 2022 was the most successful year in Flix's history with a 185% increase in revenue compared to 2021. In that year, more than 60 million passengers, across 40 countries of the world, used the services of FlixBus, FlixTrain, Greyhound in North America and Kamil Koç in Turkey. Since the beginning of the company, almost 300 million passengers have traveled with Flix.
"2022 is our most successful year so far. The numbers show us how Flix has positioned itself stronger than ever in a very attractive growing market environment - we stand for modern mobility, sustainability and digitalization", he said André Schwammlein, Flix co-founder and CEO.
The company expects an increase in revenue of at least 20% in 2023 and plans to continue investing in the expansion of FlixBus and FlixTrain services, and sustainable travel remains the core of the growth strategy.
Despite the restrictions imposed by the pandemic in many countries during the first quarter of 2022, even more than 60 million passengers used the transport service of Flix bus partners. Flix is currently present in more than 40 countries on 4 continents.
"All our markets have recovered after the pandemic. We continue to strengthen our position in existing markets, while at the same time expanding the network of lines across some new countries to enable easy travel for as many passengers as possible", added Schwämmlein.
