National Express Plymouth Heathrow recent customer reviews

National Express is reliable and brings me where I need to go. I'm just constantly baffled by how uncomfortable their buses are and how the toilets are always so stinking.

Couldn’t board the coach as it was over an hour late at the pick up point, which would have made me miss my flight out of Heathrow. I therefore had to forfeit my already paid for ticket and quickly make alternative arrangements. I waited for over an hour at the pick up point with no updates available on times/delays. I luckily found out from another passenger who learnt of the delay on Google. Good old Google!
