FlixBus US
Pros: Bus driver was relaxed, and broadcasted exactly how long we would be at each stop. Cons: Bus was dirty, there was trash in the cup holders, no bags for trash collection in the aisle, and other customers were much more concerned with the assigned seating than the driver(s), which made some passengers confused and others tense. Tips: Bring a pillow, don't use the cup holders, and try to elevate concerns about your to the driver instead of asking for help from other paying customers.
