History

[edit | edit source]

The company in collaboration with local bus operators specializes in airport bus services.

Germany

[edit | edit source]

The company started operating bus lines to Frankfurt–Hahn Airport[2] around 2006, around the same time that low-cost airline Ryanair began operating at this remote airport.

Belgium

[edit | edit source]

In Belgium, Flibco has launched[3][4][5] lines to Brussels South Charleroi Airport, which is poorly served by local public transport with only TEC buses available.[6] Initially, the service was only available from Brussels-South railway station, but later expanded to include connections from Bruges, Ghent, Arlon, Mons, Antwerp (BE), Breda, Tilburg (NL), Lille[7] (FR), Luxembourg (LU). In 2019 it carried 25% of travelers at this airport.[8]

Italy

[edit | edit source]

Since 2019, Flibco has been present in the Italian market, establishing the company FlibTravel International Italy SRL with its headquarters in Milan. Currently, it carries out a connection service with coaches between the Milan Central station and the Orio al Serio airport,[9] between Malpensa[10] and Turin, the Turin Caselle airport and Turin, and between the city of Florence and Pisa airport.

United Kingdom

[edit | edit source]

On April 1, 2025, Flibco began UK operations,[11][12] providing a coach service between London Stansted Airport and London, specifically Stratford and Liverpool Street stations with a 30 minute frequency. Flibco say they aim to operate from more UK airports.[13]
