FlixBus Newark Ithaca recent customer reviews
My first leg of the trip started badly. My bus was scheduled to leave Newark, NJ at 12:15p, it was late and finally showed up 30 minutes later. Flix doesn't list a number to call or issue any updates when the bus is running late. My connection in NYC went well, the bus driver to Ithaca was very professional he made the ride wonderful and made up for the terrible earlier experience. I will ride Flix bus again and recommend to others.
Please list a phone number for passengers to call with questions or provide updates on the App, this will help a lot.
