Pros: I didn't have to share my seat and I have hips so that's a very big deal. The bus driver made awesome time, people were respectful and quiet on Sunday afternoon so we were all able to take a nap. Cons: I never got the wifi information. Tips: Get there early. The bus leaves on time.

Pros: It was smooth and I got a row to myself. Cons: The bus was an hour late and it was tiring to wait for an hour and then arrive around 12:30 am instead of 11 pm. Tips: Hope your bus isn't an hour late.
