SLG and Flix announce majority equity investment by Flix in leading digital airport-transfer platform Flibco

Munich/Luxembourg, 13.1.2026 – SLG and Flix, a global travel-tech leader, today announced the acquisition by Flix of a majority share of Flibco, a leading European airport transfer-platform currently owned by the Luxembourg company SLG (formerly Sales-Lentz Group). The transaction marks Flix’s further expansion into the airport-shuttle segment and strengthens its position in European travel, while enabling Flibco to accelerate its growth as part of the Flix Group. SLG will remain a minority shareholder and strategic partner. Flibco will continue to operate from its headquarters in Luxembourg under the leadership of CEO Tobias Stüber and the chairmanship of the board of directors of Jos Sales.

A strategic partnership

For Flix, the investment represents a logical next step in expanding its portfolio beyond intercity long-distance travel. Having already successfully launched airport-shuttle services in markets such as Sweden and serving airports across Europe with its long-distance buses, the company sees significant potential in scaling dedicated airport connections by building on Flibco’s established network and expertise.

Flibco has established itself as one of the leading airport-shuttle providers in Europe, operating services in seven countries partnering with local bus partners. The company’s asset-light operating model and focus on digital and innovative products closely aligns with Flix’s approach, making Flibco a natural addition to the Flix digital ecosystem.

André Schwämmlein, Flix CEO: “Over the years, we have learned that customers are looking for reliable and affordable ways to get to and from airports – not just between cities. This investment allows us to expand into the airport shuttle segment in a targeted way. Flibco has built a strong business in a fragmented market, and we see clear potential to scale it further by leveraging Flix’s platform, technology and reach.”

Marc Sales, associate of SLG added: “We built the Flibco concept with a clear dream: to become the leader in airport mobility. Finding a partner who shares that ambition and can match the speed at which we need to grow, feels like a turning point for us. As a family-owned group, innovation has always been at the heart of what we do, and

Flibco reflects that spirit. With Flix now by our side, we can take this vision further across borders and unlock new possibilities for our whole group.”

Customers will continue to book airport-shuttle tickets directly via flibco.com. Moving forward, Flibco routes will also become available on the Flix platform, allowing customers to combine airport shuttles with Flix’s wider travel offering.

Flibco to continue its expansion from Luxembourg

Flibco’s management team and employees will remain in place. The company will continue to operate from its headquarters in Luxembourg under the leadership of CEO Tobias Stüber, while pursuing further expansion as part of the Flix Group. SLG will remain a significant minority shareholder and strategic partner, continuing to contribute its deep operational expertise in regional and international transport markets.

Tobias Stüber, CEO Flibco commented: ”The partnership with Flix marks the next milestone in Flibco’s successful growth story. We share the same vision of making affordable and sustainable mobility accessible to everyone. By combining Flibco’s innovative strength and operational excellence with Flix’s global network, we will expand into new markets faster than ever before. At the same time, we remain committed to offering our passengers a fully digital, comfortable and reliable travel experience – from booking to arrival at the terminal.”
