My route was Cancelled and I Never received a Notification informing me of it. There were 2 Tickets purchased for the Trip. We both waited for 2 hours in the Sun before any Connections could be made with the FLIX bus concerning our Route. Very Highly Disappointed and Irritated with the Lack of Communication and Professionalism!
