Greyhound passenger reviews
Pros Trip was great Cons Maybe one stop between Penn Station and Atlantic City to stand up and stretch Tips Good bargain
Cons There was no wifi or power to charge devices on the bus, when other patrons and myself approached the staff about it we were told that they would have to do a reset of the whole bus, I was expecting or hoping this would be done after our first stop in NY and it wasn't. Patrons continued to address this with staff and it was ignored for the whole trip. I am heavily reliant on my mobile device as I'm sure many others are during travel so this wasn't appreciated by me and from the conversations I had with others them either. I don't know how much of a bother it would have been to fix the issue but it would have been nice if he at least tried to address it which he didn't. Tips Pack portable chargers be over prepared even if it says power is available on the bus it's not a guarantee 😒 Make sure your data is stocked up and if your using g a laptop you can provide a hotspot.
Pros I reached to my destination safe Cons The seat could move back and none of the outlets was working to charger our phones which is crazy Tips Make sure your phone is fully charged incase you need to get in touch with someone

Greyhound Cancellation Policy
Greyhound tickets are nonrefundable and cannot be cancelled. It’s always a good idea to double check your travel details before completing your booking, especially for nonrefundable tickets.
You can change your Greyhound bus ticket for a different travel date by calling Greyhound’s customer service phone number at +1 (800) 231-2222. Greyhound charges a ticket exchange fee of $20, and changes must be requested before the bus departs. You can change the date and time of the trip, but not the departure or arrival locations.
Wanderu also offers an affordable trip protection option by Allianz Global Assistance that you can purchase when booking your tickets. In addition to 24-hour assistance during your trip and coverage for lost or damaged baggage, trip protection can help you get your money back in case you need to cancel or change your trip. You may be reimbursed if you cancel your bus trip due to covered reasons such as illness, extreme weather, or required work shifts. If you need to change your ticket, you may also file a claim to have the $20 Greyhound change fee reimbursed.
Greyhound Baggage Policy
Carry On Bags: You can bring one bag up to 25 lbs (or 11 kg) on to the bus with you. The bag must be able to fit into the overhead bin or fully under the seat in front of you.
Checked Baggage: You are allowed to bring up to 2 bags that will be placed under the bus for the duration of your trip. Each bag needs to be less than 50 lbs (or 22.5 kg), with a maximum total size of 62 inches when the width, length and height of the bag are all added up.
Travelling on Greyhound with Disabilities
If you have a disability or reduced mobility, Greyhound will provide service in accordance with the ADA and work to ensure your trip is as comfortable as possible. If you would like assistance during any part of your journey, ask the driver or a customer service representative and they can assist you with boarding, or help you store mobility aids or baggage. Service animals and other mobility aids like canes or walkers are always welcome onboard, depending on your needs.
The first row of Greyhound buses is reserved for the elderly and customers with disabilities. When booking your Greyhound ticket on Wanderu, you can add a wheelchair seat to your reservation on the Trip Summary page. Greyhound buses are equipped with a wheelchair lift, and you can either travel sitting in your wheelchair, or board the bus and then stow your wheelchair or mobility scooter in the baggage compartment.
Travelling with a Group on Greyhound
Want to travel as a group on Greyhound? You can book up to five tickets in one reservation on Wanderu. Simply add more travellers on the Trip Summary page, and then type each passenger’s name on the checkout page.
If you choose to print the tickets at home, the email address on the reservation will receive the tickets for each of the passengers travelling on the bus. Alternatively, you could choose to pick up the tickets for your group at the bus station by selecting the will-call option on the checkout page.
Greyhound Bus Guide & FAQs
Yes, you can reschedule your Greyhound tickets for another date or time. A $20 change fee applies in addition to any difference in the ticket price.
Yes, Greyhound tickets are refundable! You can cancel your Greyhound ticket up to 15 minutes before departure and get a refund as a voucher. The amount you get back depends on when you cancel:
Less than 2 days before: 25% refund 2 to 6 days before: 50% refund 7 to 29 days before: 75% refund 30 days or more before: 100% refund
Extras like seat reservations and extra baggage get a full refund, but booking and service fees aren’t refundable.
Yes, Greyhound offers WiFi on their buses. Although most trips with Greyhound will have WiFi as advertised, some buses might not come equipped with WiFi and onboard WiFi can lose its connection in rural areas. We recommend you bring a book or download a movie just to play it safe. Greyhound WiFi is generally best used for surfing the web, checking emails and chatting with friends; you shouldn’t count on the WiFi to binge watch your favourite show.
Most Greyhound buses have between 50 and 55 passenger seats. However, depending on the bus model, some buses in Greyhound’s fleet might have smaller or larger capacities.
Yes, there are power outlets onboard Greyhound buses. You can generally find one or two sockets per row of seats, so be a good traveller and check if your seat neighbour might want to charge up their devices as well. With the onboard power outlets, you can charge both a computer and USB devices with a USB power adapter that typically comes with most phones and tablets.
Since Greyhound might sometimes use replacement bus vehicles, not all trips are guaranteed to have power points. We recommend bringing a power bank to charge your phone for all trips over 2 hours, just in case.
On a typical day, Greyhound has 22,597 scheduled bus trips in total. However, the exact departure and arrival times vary depending on the day and route. The best way to find the exact schedule for your trip is to use the search tool on this page.
No, Greyhound does not offer will call tickets. You should purchase your tickets online and make sure you have everything you need to board before you arrive at the station.
Greyhound does not allow pets or animals onboard the bus. The only exception to this policy is for trained service animals accompanying a passenger with a disability.
On Greyhound buses, one infant (under the age of 2) can ride for free if they sit on an adult's lap. All passengers older than 2 will need a standard, full-priced ticket for travel.
Yes, Greyhound requires a valid government-issued ID to board. College IDs or other alternative forms of identification are not accepted. If you don’t have a government-issued ID, contact Greyhound directly to check for alternative boarding options.
Thanks to Greyhound’s BusTracker tool, you can easily track your Greyhound bus online and know when it is expected to arrive. Live status updates show your bus’ progress and where it is along its route. This is also a helpful tool if someone is picking you up from the arrival station.
Yes, on most Greyhound trips. You pick your seat at the first step of checkout, and Greyhound sets the price for each one. You’ll see that price before you pay, and your seat number shows on your confirmation page. Once you book, you can’t change your seat on Wanderu, so choose wisely. Seat selection is optional, so you can skip it and book as usual.
Sure thing! It’s actually cheaper to do so on Wanderu. Greyhound normally charges an $18 USD fee to buy a ticket that will be used by another person. You can avoid this fee by quickly and easily ordering a ticket on Wanderu for the person who will be travelling. Just make sure you enter their personal details in the passenger information fields.
At check-out, you can choose a print-at-home ticket (which will be emailed to you, and you can forward it to the traveller) or a will-call ticket (which the traveller can pick up at the station).
Yes, there are bathrooms on Greyhound buses. The bathrooms are pretty basic and include a toilet, toilet paper and hand sanitizer. Most bathrooms don’t have running water. As you will be using a bathroom on a moving vehicle, please use caution and hold on to a rail at all times.
Greyhound allows bikes to be transported in the under-bus baggage compartment for a fee. Make sure that your bicycle is packaged into an approved bike box or container. The container must be securely sealed for the trip.
Bicycles count as an oversized item. Depending on the station that you depart from, they might need to be shipped through Greyhound Package Express. If your bike needs to be shipped via Greyhound Package Express, the fee is between $42 to $52 USD, based on the distance you travel. Please contact the carrier ahead of time for an exact quote on how much it would cost to bring your bicycle.
If you do not have an ID, you must contact Greyhound directly to ask what options there are for you to travel without an ID. For example, you may be able to set up a password to collect your will-call ticket and/or board the bus.
Greyhound does not offer meals or beverages onboard. We recommend you bring a drink and some snacks for your trip. We also suggest packing a reusable water bottle with you to reduce your impact on the environment. However, note that most buses do not allow you to bring your own alcoholic drinks.
Greyhound does not require a printed ticket to board the bus. Instead, an eTicket is sent to you by email when you make your reservation. You can use your smartphone to show this eTicket to the ticketing agent as you board.
Greyhound goes the extra distance to deliver premium features to its customers.
Movies are provided during the bus trip to keep you entertained. Don’t forget to bring your favourite pair of headphones, as headphones are not always included on the bus. We recommend in-ear noise cancelling headphones due to their small size.
Board games are all the rage these days and Greyhound is keeping up with the latest trends by providing games you can play with your seat neighbours.
Children under the age of 12 must be accompanied by someone aged 17 or older in order to travel on a Greyhound bus. Anyone over the age of 17 qualifies as an adult when travelling on Greyhound.
Children between the ages of 12 and 16 may travel on Greyhound unaccompanied. However, there are certain restrictions and important procedures that you must follow. An Unaccompanied Child Form must be completed in person at the bus station, and tickets for unaccompanied minors cannot be purchased online.

Greyhound’s Commitment to Sustainability
Did you know that travelling by bus has one of the smallest carbon footprints of any mode of transport? Greyhound is committed to implementing sustainable technologies and policies across its bus network.
All Greyhound buses are designed to reduce the impact on the environment. This includes engines that minimize emissions and maximize efficiency; for example, by running on low-sulfur diesel fuel. You’ll also notice that buses limit the time spent idling to reduce emissions at stations. A green thumbs-up for Greyhound, and one for you too, for choosing to travel by bus.
Safe Travel on Greyhound
Your safety while travelling is important, for you and for everyone who wishes you “safe travels!” Greyhound is committed to providing a safe and comfortable trip, starting right at your seat. Every seat is equipped with three-point seatbelts, which work with standard child seats, too.
Greyhound drivers complete rigorous training, including driving in inclement weather and at night, to make sure they’re ready to get you to your destination safely. In fact, Greyhound has consistently received the Department of Transportation’s highest possible safety rating. Sandra Bullock in Speed could never.
