Wanda Coach
Pros: Comfy on time and petal to the metal Cons: More time on bathroom breaks and staff have to be a bit patient because when we pull up to rest stops we are also engaging with other travelers and also locals so if a person like myself is traveling with a small child I may have to use the restroom and as well as the child then may wanna purchase beverages. I know time is money however the policy of just pulling off on a customer leaving them stranded for running behind in time has to be revisited and have some more understanding. And repair and update bathrooms on bus. Each bus trip makes around 5-6 thousand so fix the bathrooms and also revisit breaks. Thanks Tips: Be there early and be organized and be prepared for a crowd and busy boarding. Bring snacks and drinks because they will leave you at stops if you’re not out in Time. Only use stops for quick bathroom breaks. Have some entertainment however keep in mind bus is dark.
