It was good. We arrived. I just want to mention that I booked 2 seats and both names were on my reservation but the bus driver insisted it was just one name I had booked. We insisted on our seats and he let us stay on bus

Trip great good driver, bus and on time. Only comment I would make is that the tickets in my wallet on phone the driver didn’t seem to recognise and didn’t seem to have anything to scan them. I had to find the email
