Satisfied but currently in intercity bus without working charging ports
Users have shared positive experiences regarding the overall enjoyment of their trips, highlighting aspects such as punctuality, friendliness, and safe driving. However, several reviews mention delays in bus schedules that affected subsequent plans for some travelers. Additionally, there was a concern about luggage handling due to missing stickers on bags.
I had a terrible experience with Intercity. The bus arrived 2 hours 45 minutes late, with no updates or apologies, leaving us to freeze in the cold night. This is completely unacceptable, and I will not be using Intercity Express again.

I didn't like that our luggage didn't not have stickers and we had to pack our bags ourselves. But other than that i enjoyed the trip..
