Flexa

Flexa is an on-demand shuttle service in Leipzig that offers an ideal connection to public transport (trams, buses, and suburban trains). Whether for private or business purposes, Flexa shuttles go to numerous transport hubs, from which onward travel to neighboring districts, the Leipzig city center, or throughout the entire MDV region is easily possible.

Yes, up to six people can ride in the Flexa-Shuttle at the same time. You can increase the number of people up to six during the booking process.

In your booking request, under departure time, you specify the latest time you wish to be picked up. You will receive a push notification approximately five minutes before your ride with your exact departure time. The Flexa shuttle can pick you up up to 15 minutes before your latest desired departure time.

You can select "Multiple trips" during your booking request and select all the days on which you would like to be picked up at your stop at this time. You can do this up to seven days in advance.

In the booking process, you can select your departure time or your arrival time when selecting the time. In this case, we recommend that you select "Arrival time" and enter your preferred arrival time. The background system will then plan the route so that you arrive at your destination on time. It also calculates who else can be picked up where along the way (pooling) so that you arrive on time.

When making your booking request, enter your entire route to your final destination within the MDV area. In this case too, the background system will plan the route so that you reach your connections on time.

We communicate canceled trips in LeipzigMOVE via push notifications: Please activate notifications or push messages in your phone's „Settings“ under „Apps“ in the „LeipzigMOVE“ app, and allow „Background data usage“ under „Mobile data.“ Additionally, you can check the status of your booking under „Subscriptions & Bookings.“.
