I was well pleased,this was my first trip.the only item I would like to see is to add a net on the back of each seat to hold water bottles, reading material,etc. My bottle fell out of my hands onto the floor never to be seen again.

T his was my first time to be on sprinterBus .the was on time while I was waiting in Dover. To my surprise, I got a call asking me if I'm on board the bus.I later asked the female passenger next to me, where the bus coming from? I was told from Virginia. That means the bus branch to Dover because of me.because I was the only one boarded the bus in Dover. The great and I'm surely will recommend this company to a whole lot of friends m
