Yes, many websites have "select seat" but you must pay extra, I did not realize that this was not extra or that it was required to select a seat in Brazilian buses, as such I was automatically selected for seat 01. Not a big problem I know now, since it's an app targeting Westerners and Americans it would be great to clarify this step in the process. The front of the bus was very cold. Etc.
4.0 out of 5 stars
