National Express Cheltenham Birmingham recent customer reviews
Coach was clean and on-time, but the temperature onboard was uncomfortably hot, with no air coming out of the ventilation. Usually National Express coaches are a comfortable temperature, so this was surprising. Didn't want to distract the driver by asking about it, so just had to put up with it.
