My mistake put wrong time in Had to buy tickets for my husband and I all over again to get home

Really good. The only thing I would add was the email said that I had to have paper copies of the ticket. We had booked the night before and don't travel with a printer so it caused some mild stress that we wouldn't be allowed on the bus. However, the driver accepted the e-ticket without an issue.

I missed my bus bcos I thought I booked it from Dublin city Centre to Belfast International. Not knowing it was from Dublin Airport. When I realised I had missed my bus I took a taxi for €25 to Dublin airport to meet up but sadly I still missed the bus and enter the next one to Belfast Queen whatever and pay another £9 to Belfast International. So sad but I am thankful for not missing my Flight bcos I almost did and safe landing.

I didn’t get to use my pass that I purchased. My plane was late, and it was a 2 1/2 hour difference to get the next bus. So I had to forfeit the fare and buy from another company. AirCoach left in 20 minutes.

The person checking tickets, very rude. Claimed would not accept screen shots of ticket, only print out. Told adults very loudly to get into a line with print out tickets ready for boarding. Repeatedly saying I will not accept screen shot of ticket Needs to work on PR Also no wifi on coach
