It’s not the FlixBus pick me. The bus is crazily fluctuating, I felt reallly dizzy in the bus and wanted to omit. There were lots of cigarettes and the air condition is poor. This is the worst experience in bus.

The bus was very dirty and the bathroom had the whole bus smelling like feces and urine. The bus driver almost hit 3 people and couldn’t speak English well. He drove very aggressively and unsafe. Would never take this bus again.

The bus was late and it was very cold on the bus. Uncomfortable. I’m highly disappointed.

Michael J.

Peter Pan worked as it should. Easy to board with my online ticket. There was no staff member available for us to check in but it turns out we didn’t really need to do anything. I wasn’t sure how I would be notified when the bus was there but a line of people stood up at 717 (for the 720 bus) and I asked them. Ans then we were called over a very fuzzy indiscernible PA system. After that it was smooth sailing. Safe driver. Cozy ride. No baggage fees :)

Customers have expressed dissatisfaction with the service, mentioning delays and late arrivals. Some customers had to wait for over an hour in the cold and rain. There were also complaints about lack of communication, as there were no updates or notices regarding bus status. Additionally, one customer mentioned that there should be signs indicating where the bus is meeting and picking up passengers instead of searching at a truck stop.

The bus was an hour late and then took 40 minutes at the rest stop causing me to be 2 hours late to my destination. It ruined my trip
