The Bus was 40 mins late, leaving us standing in the cold. The driver didnt know how to scan our tickets to get us onto the bus. He clearly had no idea where he was going at multiple times stopping for extended periods to check maps.

The driver was on time courteous and was a very safe driver. I was very happy with the services and we use again.

The driver was good, the bus comfortable, but I didn't like to be stranded at the Petro Canada gas station instead of being brought to the Crowfoot LRT station. The good point about public transportation is to help passengers and their luggage. The start from Canmore should coincide wit the Roam bus at the Benchland station. The arrival in Calgary should be at the LRT, like other companies, better still in a downtown location with more public choices. It's lucky that I had a phone to contact the person who picked me up in a different place.

Notified bus was delayed. Then arrived earlier than original time and left without providing any notice to myself or other passengers

We arrived 25 minutes early and the bus never showed up. It completely skipped our stop in canmore. We checked the tracking and it was already most of the way to Calgary. Also there is no phone number to call after 5pm so we were left stranded in the middle of the rockies, had to take a 200 dollar taxi home.
