The staff at union station bus terminal were SO unhelpful with this trip. I was traveling Toronto to Hamilton at 2:15, the boards were showing a 2:15 Flix bus stopping at Pearson, Kitchener, Chatham, Windsor & Detroit, no Hamilton stops. I asked three staff who weren’t able to confirm if the bus was stopping in Hamilton. I waited in line for 20mins to try to ask with the Flix rep but had to leave the line due to my bus departing. The employee at the line still wasn’t able to confirm that the bus stopped in Hamilton, everyone on the bus who was going to Hamilton literally had to wait until the bus driver came off to confirm. Kind of crazy.
