Megabus

[glenpreece]

Hello all, awhile ago I posted about how cheap it is to fly out of BUF and without a doubt it is still cheaper. Over the past couple vacay's I have been splitting my flights between 2 different arilines. And once again I am doing this. It was actually cheaper to fly home on Westjet from MCO than Southwest. So I jumped on it. I still need a way down to WDW and Southwest is only $99w/tax. Now I had mentioned about taking the Megabus to BUF but having read all sorts of TERRIBLE reviews online I am not sure if I should. It seems as if everyone has really long delays at the border (4 hrs in most cases)and since I can't drive this is my only way to BUF. Anyways just wanted to share what I found about the Megabus.

Here's a link from an earlier thread.... mixed reviews. My bus was great, delay at the boarder was horrible

First off, oh my gosh my thoughts to those on that bus

Secondly, I have used it many times. To both Buffalo Airport and New York City. As long as you go in knowing you may be delayed at the border you will be fine, Ive had no issues with service other then the border delays, but megabus doesn't have much control over that.

I have made it through in as quick as 20min, and once waited an hour just to get. I'd say the most I have waited is 2 hours

Noon bus today, 45 mins late arriving in TO, due to the previous driver having run out of driving hours (?), 25 mins late to BUF airport, boarder 30 mins but only 15 people. Extremely rude driver from Buffalo bus terminal, and he was slightly reckless in his driving. TO to BUF driver was awesome.
