The bus service was 16 minutes late and I reached 25 minutes late on the Man City vs Real Madrid Quarter Finals. We were stuck on the M62 highway for like 20 minutes for which I do not blame anyone. But I could have saved 16 minutes if the bus had come on time.

The bus broke and no replacement was provided by National Express. We had to take the following one, after 90 minutes, and lucky to find a seat available for us as it was almost complete. Other passengers were left there and could not reach Manchester. We risked to miss our plane. Terrible experience

Polite/confident driver but no ‘side kick’. Made up time from a fifteen minute delay. Value for money journey.
