Megabus question

Hello. :)
I'm off to the continent very soon going on a coach.
The company's called Megabus. Have you travelled with them and if so, what was your experience? :cool:
Thanks. :)

    I've used Megabus in the past. It's ok if you've got plenty of time to allow for traffic and breakdowns etc., you pay for what you get though.

    Depending on how much you value your time and convenience and comfort you may find it worth paying extra to go by train or plane.

    Haven't used them for continental travel, but their inter city buses are pretty much exactly what you're paying for, they get you there, but it's not pretty!
    Retired member - fed up with the general tone of the place.
  • Their buses are of a reasonable standard, and they're cheap. That's about all that can be said about them.

    Oh, and they have free WiFi.
  • I bought a seat to AMS and back for the royal sum of £2.50, so I don't expect the earth. :p:)

    I heard that the continental ones are tons better than the city ones :) I hope you have a lovely time.
