16 May 2025- Regular commuter

Peter Pan Lines

Pros: The obvious competence and friendliness of the driver, the promptness, the convenience of being closer to my home in New Lebanon rather than making my husband pick me up in Albany. Gorgeous scenery. I loved this trip! Cons: Seats seemed a bit worn down. WiFi would be nice, but the fare was already pretty high. Tips: Be prepared to enjoy yourself.

Peter Pan Lines

Pros: A pleasant journey mainly. Cons: Just a few too many stops, especially on the return trip to NYC. A pocket on the back of each seat to put a book in would help. Also, flaps on the headrest so one could sleep. Tips: Try to get seats near the front of the bus. Less bumpy.
