How to choose your company in 5 checks
- Rating and number of reviews together. A high score on very few reviews says little.
- The class or vehicle. It is shown on each offer: on the same route, comfort can differ a lot.
- The departure point. Companies do not always leave from the same station: check the name on your ticket.
- The arrival time. Useful to plan your connection or your check-in.
- Change and cancellation conditions. They are shown before payment and differ between companies.
