Slovak Lines Vienna Bratislava recent customer reviews
Trip went smoothly and on time. Problem was a user error in that I wanted to go to the Bratislava airport but I selected a bus that only goes to the city. Apparently a grey airplane is supposed to mean “not airport” though the text seems to say most places.

No very happy, my flight was delayed 2,5 hours so my bus tickets weren't valid for late bus, had to pay 20 euros extra.
