awful. the bus was late and I almost bought another ticket because no one communicated that it would be late to me, and I feared being stranded at the airport. the bus driver gave no reasoning or apology when he did show up, just took a smoke and checked us in without saying anything. there were barely any seats left because people were sleeping across multiple seats and the bus took many breaks (aside from the normal stops) and kept turning the lights on which woke me up.
