Smooth journey overall but did not announce my stop on the PA system, causing me to miss it.

First ever, it was a very good experience except the dismount. There was/is no guidance on the duration of stop at Newark - our destination. As a result, before we would dismount alongside accompanying kids, the train left for New York Station. That added a lot of distress and increased the travel time by over one hour.

There was no air conditioning in the quiet car. This made the trip a bit uncomfortable.
According to customer reviews, the bus service received positive feedback for its efficiency and helpful staff. However, there were complaints about unclear information during the booking process regarding transfers from a bus to a van. Additionally, delays occurred due to late departures and extended stops at each stop along the route. Despite these issues mentioned in multiple reviews, overall satisfaction with the service remains high.

Bus arrived on time but we left 20 min late. Bus sat at each stop for several minutes and we arrived late at each stop so no idea why we waited.

Shawtanet M.
It was extremely unclear in the booking process that we would be switching from a bus to a van. If there are transfers in the itinerary, it should be extremely clear in the booking process. Second, the driver was not given an updated list of passengers, which delayed the start of the trip.
