I love big coach and comfortable seat. The bus departed on time and arrived on time. However, it should add wifi.

Bus left and arrived on time and staff were nice. While we arrived safely, the driver was texting at times while driving which did make me a little nervous.

Bus was comfortable but could have been a bit cleaner. Driver took some of the bends a bit fast and the music was a bit loud.

The bus got me to the airport. However there was none WiFi and the bathroom door was broken so I couldn’t use it. I think that there could be a better process for loading luggage and lining up for the bus
