February 24, 2025- Visiting family

Balzac to Edmonton

Pros: I like that the bus stops at Cross Iron Mall close to Airdrie AB. I liked that the driver let me have the seat for people with a disability because it was clear that I have an issue. Cons: I would like to be able to book the seat for people with a disability when I book online instead of being assigned a seat and hoping the driver will give me that seat. Tips: I would advise others that your prices are fair.

Calgary to Edmonton

Pros: Good. The driver was helpful and friendly. Cons: Cleanliness, the inside of the bus smelled pretty bad. I have used bus from other provider in the past and it was much cleaner.Otherwise it was good. Tips: When someone books tickets for a family, it would be better if you try and put them together. It's understandable when it's a last minute booking but when it's not and the bus is half empty it does not make sense assigning 4 people to 4 different parts on the bus specially when neither the driver nor the passengers are worried about the seats assigned.
