Pros: I liked how timely the trip was. We left precisely on time or a bit early and I arrived at my destination early. The tracking online was also helpful. Cons: I couldn't find any information about the wifi on the bus, so it would be helpful to have that more clearly written out somewhere. Tips: Arrive at least 10-15 minutes early and utilize the tracking feature online.
