National Express Newport Bristol recent customer reviews
The driver allowed us to get on the wrong bus . He was vile when we flagged it to him with no apology or the slightest bit of concern that we were going to miss our flight . Disgusting customer service .

Helpful driver. Slight delay due to traffic congestion but the driver knew his lanes and got us to Bristol earlier than we thought we would make it.
5 out of 5 stars
Anne F.
Felt very sorry for our driver trying to get to the airport…what a nightmare for him & many other passengers in cars trying to get their flights. A large number were walking with their luggage from about a mile from the airport. Shocking planning by those responsible, and, from what I could see no 24hr working. Whoever authorised this should hang their heads in shame.
Customers praise the on-time service, polite drivers, and comfortable buses. However, there were some issues reported with a driver almost not allowing a passenger onboard due to confusion over an e-ticket from another bus company. The driver seemed rushed in handling the situation.
Megabus Newport Bristol recent customer reviews
All was fine but I very nearly wasn't allowed on the bus as I showed the driver what I had from mega bus on my phone he said it was not a ticket. I had to tell him to read it then he let me on. He was in a rush.
