PandaNY Bus

Pros: Very nice bus service. Definitely more worth than the price of ticket. Do continue the good bus service. Cons: If you could make the seats can go more backwards.. it would make the journey more pleasant to sleep and relax as the journey is quite long .. as the bus travels a long distance. Tips: Just the regular piece of tips..... Speak with lower voice on phone calls and no speaker to the phone/tab/laptop.. as journey is in night and passengers would want to sleep..
