The online ticket purchase went fluid but the travel experience was terrible, bus arrived late, litter bags all over the bus not cleared, seat covers dirty and charging ports not working. Bus drivers smoking while offloading luggage disregarding the non smoking public...

Users generally enjoyed their trips, noting that the journeys were fine overall. However, some common concerns include a lack of air conditioning making it cold inside and buses not adhering to the schedule consistently, with instances of delays ranging from 40 minutes to two hours being reported.
The journey was fine no complaints, but the bus must keep time this is the third time consecutive the bus is not on time table. On the 21st of May it arrived 2 hours late from the pick up point, yesterday 25th of June it arrived 40 mins late.
