I don't know where to start,,,on the 1st of 31 of December 2025 I book my daughter a bus from MooiRiver to park station the child was supposed to arrive at 6am in the morning at park station for the child to arrive 12:00 midday apparently the bus got delayed for 6hours...we let it slide,,,today the bus was suppose to pick her up at 9:30 In the morning only for the same bus to arrive faulty and have to wait for another one till 11:30.. I mean we have place we can wait for 6hour for a delayed bus or wait 3hours for faulty bus blue sky should really work on their service..i don't think a bus will wait for me for 2 hours so they shouldn't also not keep us waiting without a proper explanation,,
