This was a very useful way of getting from Calgary to Banff. I suggest folks to try and always double check with the information desk about trip schedule and whether you need to get your bags tagged or not--this was not clear and might be confusing to others. Otherwise, it is a Greyhound bus trip, so it is what it is.
I am no satisfied because my ticket was not refundable. My plane was delayed so I arrived at the airport passed the time the bus left. If I could have applied the purchase of my original ticket to another greyhound ticket I would have been happy. Instead I went with an airport shuttle and would recommend that service over greyhound.
The lady at the greyhound station in Calgary was very abrupt and unhelpful, especially consindering we clearly foreign travellers. Also the plugs were on the wall and I had an aisle seat so it was a awkward time trying to manipulate the cord around the other passenger. One of the plugs was also broken.
Trip was good. Seats comfortable and bus was clean. But the trip back from Banff was delayed by over an hour which made a difference to what we had planned, there was no communication either to say the bus was late except for when we turned up at the station.
The staff were super helpful as I didn’t have all my paper work. The lady who helped us, couldn’t have been more pleasant, and professional. Great service, one I will put on trip advisor too.
Thanks
