Very nice lady, on time. Even early, for the better to catch a flight. Only thing, the driver should message a little earlier than last minute at the stop.

I enjoyed the cheap fair, and how many options there is on a daily basis. I am sad that they didn't have any plug ins to charge devices. Would really like to see that in the future.

The service itself was great, however, I had a bus booked for 0915. This bus was cancelled, yet I wasn't informed about this. I waited in freezing temperatures for an hour. I had to use a nearby hotel to call, and they informed me that my booking had changed to 1130. This would have been fine if I was informed, but I wasn't. They said they tried to call me and emailed me about the change. This didn't happen. What I would recommend, is having a Whatsapp contact as well. Because I am from overseas, my phone could only use the internet to keep contacted (I was using an esim). Instead on relying on phone contact/email to contact passengers, and this either doesn't work or could be missed. Sending a Whatsapp message to the passenger would be a lot better. And passengers could also contact the bus company using the app.
