Red Arrow User Reviews
Red Arrow has received praise for its clean bathrooms and safe driving, with rides generally arriving on time. However, some users noted issues such as non-functional Wi-Fi and the absence of expected amenities like USB ports or food. Additionally, there were concerns about increased ticket prices compared to previous experiences.
I thoroughly enjoyed my trip yesterday to Kelowna from Vancouver. Customer service was excellent, from the staff checking us in to the courteous drivers. I can’t think of anything that needed to be improved. The seats were comfy, wifi was much appreciated, plus having a bathroom on board. Having coffee/tea/pop and cookies available was an added bonus! Our drivers were very personable, and I really appreciated Colin’s attention and concern for us passengers. The weather was kind of nasty, but he handled the road like a real pro. I will definitely use the bus service again!

The service itself was great, however, I had a bus booked for 0915. This bus was cancelled, yet I wasn't informed about this. I waited in freezing temperatures for an hour. I had to use a nearby hotel to call, and they informed me that my booking had changed to 1130. This would have been fine if I was informed, but I wasn't. They said they tried to call me and emailed me about the change. This didn't happen. What I would recommend, is having a Whatsapp contact as well. Because I am from overseas, my phone could only use the internet to keep contacted (I was using an esim). Instead on relying on phone contact/email to contact passengers, and this either doesn't work or could be missed. Sending a Whatsapp message to the passenger would be a lot better. And passengers could also contact the bus company using the app.

There was nothing to not like! Both drivers were extremely professional at all times and conducted themselves with personable courtesy, always!
Richard L.
The driver was nice and helpful. The rest stop was nice and for a good length of time. I don't recommend telling people to be there 15 mins early in -11C to then show up 5 mins late.
