Was a little difficult to find the stop in New Haven (was not marked and I had to ask) but other than that it was great.

There was some confusion as to the actual pickup spot , but the driver was confident and friendly. I would have liked a better link as to the progress of the bus as it was fairly lste , no doubt due to the heavy HEAVY holiday traffic. We were finally an hour and a half late , but it was bumper to bumper , and still a comfortable ride.

My first bus was three hours late which made me miss my second bus. They did not provide replacement of the second bus and couldn’t tell us if there was one coming or not. We got to Boston only because a Bolt bus driver was nice enough to let us on his bus.
