Pros: The bus arrived late due to heavy traffic. I travelled the day before thanksgiving, so that’s understandable. But overall, very smooth ride, clean and spacious bus, and friendly driver 🧡. Cons: Nothing. Tips: Please be considerate and do not take up more than one seat. There were several people lying down on two seats or placing their bags on the seats beside them. It became a bit frustrating for the people coming onto the bus.
