Question 1

Is there WiFi onboard BestBus?

Accepted Answer

Yes BestBus offers WiFi connection onboard their bus trips. Though most trips with BestBus will have WiFi as advertised, some trips 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. BestBus 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 favorite show.

Question 2

Are there power outlets on a BestBus bus? Are there USB plugs?

Accepted Answer

BestBus provides both regular power outlets and USB plugs on board their bus trips. They have gone to great lengths to ensure your electronics never run out of power. Your laptop can be juicing up while your phone stays charged as well. Of course, even with all these options, it’s possible that a BestBus vehicle might have an issue with its power supply, so to cover that situation bring a charge power pack.

Question 3

Does BestBus offer will call tickets, that you pick up at the station?

Accepted Answer

No, currently BestBus 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 or stop.

Question 4

Do you need an ID to get on a BestBus bus?

Accepted Answer

Yes, BestBus requires you to present an ID to an agent to be allowed to board the bus. Make sure you have identification issued by a government agency that meets the carrier’s requirements. Alternative IDs, like a college ID, won’t work.

Question 5

Can you use your phone to board BestBus?

Accepted Answer

Yes, you can get onboard BestBus bus trips with your phone, but you can just keep scrolling through your newsfeed as BestBus doesn’t require you to show a ticket or confirmation info. Simply tell a BestBus agent your name as you board.

Question 6

Are there bathrooms on BestBus buses?

Accepted Answer

Yes, there are bathrooms on BestBus bus trips. 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.

Question 7

Are meals or beverages offered onboard BestBus trips?

Accepted Answer

BestBus 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. Most carriers, though, do not allow you to bring your own alcoholic drinks.     Your thirst is a priority for BestBus, and to make sure you are never parched onboard their bus, they offer free water bottles. Just remember - the only right thing to do at the end of your trip is to make sure every water bottle is placed in a recycle bin to reduce your impact on the environment.

Question 8

Does BestBus offer any premium features like extra legroom, movies or TV?

Accepted Answer

BestBus goes the extra distance to deliver up-class offerings to its customers.  Movies are provided during the bus trip to keep you entertained. Don’t forget to bring your favorite pair of headphones, as not all carriers offer headphones on the bus. We recommend in-ear noise cancelling headphones as the best choice for the frequent traveler due to their small size.
