Expressway Dublin Sligo recent customer reviews
I was disappointed that there was no enforcement of the no vaping rule. Driver did not bother intervening when people vaping, also did not make people who were clearly sitting in the outside seat alone so they didn’t have to share with anyone move in to make way for others, instead he just told others that the bus was full. Overall I would have liked to see more consideration for passengers and the social dynamic of the bus.

On line scheduling was easy. Bus was (only) 15 minutes late, not too bad. However, I had stomach ache & dry heaves throughout the 3+ hour trip to Sligo. Very disappointed. Never again!
