Frequently Asked Questions
How much baggage can you bring on the bus?
El Expreso has a very generous luggage policy. You are able to bring two checked bags that weigh up to 40 pounds each. If you are traveling with children, each child is allowed only one bag up to 30 pounds. You can also have one carry-on bag that does not exceed 25 pounds and fits properly in the overhead compartment.
Make sure all your bags, including your carry-on, have luggage tags with your name, address and contact information. The El Expreso Bus crew may refuse to allow you to take any luggage that does not have a tag.
Your electronic devices cannot be stored in your checked luggage and must be in your carry-on.
Do El Expreso Bus buses have WiFi?
Yes, El Expreso Bus offers WiFi on their buses. Although most trips with El Expreso Bus 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. El Expreso Bus 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.
Are there power points or USB points on the bus?
Yes, there are power points onboard El Expreso Bus 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 points, you can charge both a computer and USB devices with a power point USB converter that typically comes with most phones and tablets.
Since El Expreso Bus might sometimes use replacement bus vehicles, not all trips are guaranteed to have power points. We recommend to bring a power bank to charge your phone for all trips over 2 hours, just in case.
What is El Expreso Bus's schedule?
On a typical day, El Expreso Bus has 151 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.
