Very professional driver, cared about the overall comfort of all passengers. He had to request 3 times that one particular passenger not talk on her phone or talk so loud out of curtsey of others. On her way off the bus she accused him of being rude. I disagree with her 100%.

I was not allowed on bus because it was crowded and the driver told. Me that was no way to connect to Longan Airport my destination. I finally too a Peter Pan bus for a considerable additional sum. I am disappointed in the service from Providence -Boston and shall not booknit again.
