Bus driver was a little too nice to passengers.. which caused for some riders to take advantage of our limited timed stops.
Cheney B.
that was a real mess! people are crying! buses are cancelled, i had to take uber to get to my flight in time. i don't think i would ever depend on timings specially if i have tight schedule.
Khalil A.
It was far from what it was promoted to be. The WiFi on the bus was a HUGE lie. It does not work, which was a big deal because I had work to get done. The bus did not even leave the station until 20 mins AFTER we were supposed to leave. The bus was not even very clean, the stations certainly left MUCH to be desired. We arrived 1 hour after the said time. Which I get some of it is traffic, but our stop at Chattanooga was 20 mins longer than it was scheduled to be ON TOP of our late departure originally. I was VERY unsatisfied.
