Why do intercity bus apps show different departure times than station boards?
I arrived 20 minutes early for my trip, but the app said 14:30 while the station display showed 14:15. Missed the bus and had to wait three hours for the next one. Is this a common glitch, or should I always trust the physical board over the app?

Common issue. Apps often pull from central schedules, while station boards reflect real-time updates from drivers and local dispatch. Delays, route changes, or platform swaps get updated locally first. Always double-check with station staff or the board when you arrive, especially during bad weather or holidays when disruptions are more frequent.

I missed a connection last winter because of this exact problem. The app hadn’t updated after a delay, and I trusted it over the board. Now I always verify at the station and keep backup options. If you’re dealing with repeated issues, you can look up how to contact flixbus for additional contact details and escalation routes. Sometimes reaching out through a different channel helps clarify schedule discrepancies or request compensation for missed connections.
