The trip itself was fine but both of the bus trips were delayed several hours from the original time. Don't know if this is an aberration or typical of the bus service.

I didn’t enjoy anything about my trip, my departure time was changed to 4 hours later and then randomly changed to 3 hours earlier causing me to miss my bus and have to spend hours searching for a rental and customer support was useless.

I wasn't able to use my ticket because the bus was over 3 hours delayed, so I had to find another way to travel.
