The driver was very helpful. The bus had issues such as - wifi was not working, and water dropping from the air conditioner. Bus quality should be taken care.
First class bus travel, 8.5 hours whizzed by in the very comfy and recliner seats. Bus was fully air-conditioned too.
Would deffo travel with them again.
In 15 degree weather, my bus driver decided to have the emergency doors open during the whole 9 hour bus drive, which caused the bus to be freezing. On top of that all the outlets on the bus were not working.
The bus driver was mentally unstable and lashed out at one customer who was listening to music using her headphones. Apparently her music was audible to him (we did not hear anything) and he said it was a "legal issue". He later called the state troopers on her. The whole time she was quiet and not bothering anyone. It was just disturbing to watch and we all felt uncomfortable and unsafe in the vehicle with the driver.
Man on a mission. I appreciate the operator forgot his name but love his pride for the job definitely will be back using this bus again. He make it his business to get to each stop on time!
The bus was on time from New York and to Buffalo. However, when we arrived at the Buffalo airport the driver just dropped us off at a location where we didn’t even know where we were. This is the area for ride share. Other passengers were probably waiting for Lyft, etc. We were from out of town and we needed to catch the parking shuttle back to where we parked. We ended up crossing the streets unsafely in order to get to the side for entrance to the airport. If there was better alternative, we don’t know. It was a bit of a shock factor but then we figured it out. Dragging bags across the lot wasn’t fun either. I know now for next time. This was my first time taking the bus to Buffalo airport.
I was put on the wrong bus, I supposed to get on the bus that stops at buffalo airport, but the one I got on didn't stop, but the nice gentleman at buffalo terminal was kind enough to call me a uber that eventually took me to the airport, so overall was ok
Very disoriented. Changed bus on last stop , passengers over loaded ,second bus driver was so rude and shouted on passengers , took so long to reach to my destination
The bus was overheating instead of transferring to another bus he just kept going. I arrived 5 hours late and got to my job late. Not only did my 8hr trip become 13 hr it was the worst ride.
The bus was not in condition to do any trips the heat was not working and we endured 20 degrees of freezing cold for over 6 hours. The bus driver knew about the issue and said “oh well it’s not a big deal” we all become extremely sick. This was a safety issue and it needs to be address by the company
It was very quiet for sleep and everyone was very friendly and helpful. Also, the constant location and stops ahead was very informative. Overall a 10/10 easy experience
The booking process was terrible. I paid 145,- for a 80,- dollar ticket, and was booked from NY to Philadphia and back to NY to go to Buffalo. This is ridiculous. Fortunately the staff was helpful.
The outward bus broke down and I was delayed by some hours. The inward bus was delayed by an hour because of having to wait for 1 passenger at the Canadian border. We should have gone without them.
Service was great, driver was very friendly and cheerful. Seats we very uncomfortable, mine had a metal loop near the base of the seat which was very uncomfortable to sit on for 9 hours.
