The drive itself was fine. The driver was good. The disorganization of the process both in NYC and Albany was so bad that I decided to disembark at the non-station rather than wait an indeterminate time to go to the Amtrak station where I had planned to be picked up by my friend. The process is always improved by communication, which was seriously lacking. It was not the drivers fault, but she did little to alleviate the mis communication.

It was easy to buy tickets from the site. I was able to get on the bus 1 1/2 hrs early because the bus was empty and the driver was very nice.

According to customer reviews, there were some difficulties in finding the correct gate at Port Authority. Additionally, during a bus transfer in Kingston NY, passengers had to wait for over an hour outside a closed station on a cold night. However, it's worth mentioning that the staff was polite throughout the experience.

Transfer was only supposed to take 45 minutes but was instead delayed for at least an hour 30 minutes without any communication

We had to switch buses in Kingston NY, and we waited over one hour!! The station was closed and it was cold outside!! There was about 20 or so passengers waiting and it was late night. However staff was polite!!
