Bus was nice, staff was great. The only issues of timeliness were not in control of the driver and resulted from traffic conditions.

my ticket was from wdc to stamford, so there are 2 buses and 2 routes. The first bus arrived with a huge delay in WDC which made me miss the second bus in NYC. To make matters worse there were no more buses on the date to Stamford. I had expenses to stay in NYC for a longer time and to pay gas for my old man's car to pick me up and get me to work. I arrived at work very late and then had to go back to Stamford to pick up my car that was in a parking lot. Also the bus was very old and uncomfortable. Much damage on that day. My family and I were disappointed. I would at least like to be compensated for what I spent today, as it was not our fault. No further.
