I always had good experiences with Greyhound. I was a very frequent passenger. My job at the time required me to travel to various places across the country. When I was at the San Bernardino station, they knew I was going pick up trucks in Az. Or other places. They made sure I was considered a priority and got me where I needed to be. All drivers made sure I got to my destinations. An old friend retired from Greyhound. Many drivers knee him or were trained by him. Thank you, Greyhound, for helping me make money.

January 20, 2024. I was departing from Montréal to NY, but trip cancelled due to the mechanical issue, and there was no spare bus. The Greyhound driver even said that ever since Flix aquired Greyhound, it's gone down the drain, and not unusual that many bus trips are cancelled without notice. In the past, if the bus was full, they'd add an extra bus. No longer the case anymore.

I’m a former Greyhound driver (1989-1996) and the CEO had no desire to invest back into Greyhound. Instead, him and his team would squeeze every dollar they could get out of the company. We use to have the worst equipment & passengers out on the road.

First of all, where can I find passengers to bring me starbies?!😂 I'm a driver based out of Atlanta and having passengers with the attitude you carried is what makes for a good trip (even with crying babies 😅)! I also want to point out a not so fun- fun fact- that was not an emergency exit door, that is where a wheelchair passenger will enter the coach. The seats near the wheel chair door and on the other side (because a bus can carry up to 2 wheelchair passengers at once) can be folded a slide forward or backwards to allow space for the wheelchair to be loaded on by the wheelchair lift stored in the 3rd luggage bay. The windows, wind shields, and roof hatches are your actual emergency exits. Anywho, great video, and glad you enjoyed the trip!

Reminds me of the time I drove a bus from Sacramento to Los Angeles, it was my regular run. As we were leaving one morning a guy got on and said he need to go to Hollywood. I told him you're on the right bus we're going to Los Angeles, and took off, he started screaming NO I'm going to Hollywood, before I could explain to him, that Hollywood was just an area in Los Angeles. He jumped off the bus when I was doing 10 miles an hour, rolled around on the concrete. I stopped to see if he was all right and he just gave me the finger. I didn't think any more about it, until the next day. I was on my regular run from Sacramento to LA again, when I see this guy with a bandage head hitchhiking, holding up a sign that says Hollywood or bust. I'll say this he must have busted his head when he fell. And I always wondered if he got a ride with anybody did they tell him they are going to Los Angeles. If so he might have jumped out. This happened in April 1976 but I remember it like yesterday

It's shocking to see all of the old depots and staff are gone. I was a Greyhound driver for 8 years in the 90's. I was based in Portland, OR and Wichita, KS. In 1970 my family planned on driving our truck with camper to Miami, FL, until we rolled the vehicle on slick highways near Winslow, AZ. My Great Uncle paid for a Greyhound trip for us all (3 kids and parents), which was an adventure. When I finished high school in Sacramento, CA, I joined the US Navy and the Navy processing center was in Oakland. I took my first solo Greyhound trip to Oakland in 1983. When I arrived in Oakland, I had to walk with my luggage to a hotel 3 blocks away which in hindsight was a dangerous thing to do. Even before I left the old Oakland depot, I was asked 2-3 times if I'd like to buy drugs! I was a proud Greyhound driver and considered it one of my favorite jobs in life. The only reason I quit was because I was newly married in Kansas and had sunk roots when they eliminated the driver hub location in Wichita. I finished my driving career as a cross country tour bus driver in 2009 when I went back to University to get a BS and MA in American History. My, how time flies...

I still like to take Greyhound once in a while to look at the country side while being on the expressway. I also take the Greyhound from Chicago to Minneapolis every year 8 hours. I'm also gonna give Indian Trails a chance from Chicago to the state of Michigan. I also love to take Amtrak Hiawatha Service to Milwaukee and i also like the Wolverine to Michigan. The seats on Amtrak are way better because more legroom compared to Greyhound.

My trip on this disgusting bus line was horrible. They sell tickets and have no drivers .. every connection I missed and had to wait hours for a bus driver. YOU ALSO WHEN YOU MISS THE CONNECTION YOU HAVE TO CALL GREYHOUND TO CHANGE YOUR TICKETS. The customer service sucks that are at the terminals because they know nothing and do nothing

[GnarlsGnarlington]

Back in the day, there was Trailways and Greyhound. The latter bought the former. All was good. Then the prices went up. I haven't travelled by bus in 40 years but having someone drive me to San Diego instead of me fighting traffic might just be a good alternative!

I purchased a round trip ticket to México City and back to Orlando.

Upon arriving in Houston our bus arrived 4 hours late. Upon leaving and arriving in San Antonio there was no apparent desire to board/disboard with any urgency to try and arrived in Monterrey within any semblence of the hours scheduled. In San Antonio it took a whole hour to board the passengers before heading to Laredo and finally Monterrey.

All of this was after stopping at múltiple stations that were dirty and with barely functioning bathrooms.

Upon arriving in Laredo the individual attending was at least the first person who tried helping but unfortunately misdirected me. Because the bus arrived late and the misinformation I Lost 12 hours without being able to sleep in Laredo. Luckily in Monterrey they have proper understanding of how to manage transport and I was able to arrive in México City without more complications.

I have used buses and public transport in EVERY part of the world from Thailand to Europe and have never had such a terrible experience.

You were on the west coast with new buses and terminals. Greyhound has been selling lots of terminals. Now you catch a bus in a McDonald's parking lot, converted gas station or maybe a city bus terminal. Food/restrooms maybe. Not all buses have plugs/wifi either. FYI the Vegas stop is no longer downtown they moved a couple years ago to a city yard south strip area. Definitely gonna need a Uber.

I took the Greyhound last year from Anaheim to San Francisco. It wasn’t the best but at least I came out alive. Still choosing the Isarog Bus from Manila to Legazpi.

Through the Flixbus app, I'm taking a Greyhound from Pittsburgh to NYC, then a 40 min layover, then to Albany. It's my first time going on a Greyhound and I'm just super nervous! I keep hearing all these bad things, like crazy people, charging stations not working, etc. Send help. xD

[MrBusdriver]

Greyhound has been through a lot since 1980 and no matter who owns service has never been the same and since they went from 43 to 47 to 50 and now 55 seats there is no legroom for anyone over 6ft tall and that makes for a very uncomfortable ride for any length of time if you have to sit next to someone. Greyhound needs to go back to 52 seat coaches which give decent legroom for everyone and makes for a comfortable ride!

$78 million and First Group kept the real estate, that's bus stations are such an issue now.

I used to take Greyhound bus, from San Bernardino to Greensboro, N.C, almost every year, with my parents, grandkids, aunt, and niece, but my parents passed, my niece stayed in NC, my aut it to old, my grandkids, one in college and my boy in Marines, so it me by myself, but I'm going to visit my brother, in NC, next year, if God's willing, can't wait, the only thing is the tickets price, are so high, almost $500dls round trip, but don't matter, just want to travel Greyhound. ❤❤❤❤️

[arthursmith]

I used Greyhound back in the 1980's for business & I hope Greyhound stays forever & Happy Trails
