Delay at departure with no information in station. Bus was not so clean (rest of food on my seat). No electric plug,(only usb). No wifi. No information on board from the driver to inform on the duration of the stop. Not recommanded.

The bus itself was fine. Unfortunately, shortly before reaching Butterworth, there was an unannounced change of bus at a service station, where everything had to happen very quickly. Passengers had to reload their luggage themselves. In the rush, items of luggage or personal belongings can easily be left behind and thus lost. The changeover itself wouldn’t be a problem if it were announced in advance or communicated at the latest when the journey began. The organisation is therefore poor and in need of improvement.

Driver drive slower than every bus in the highway, we had to stop and switch buses and we're not even sure why or confident that we were going in the right direction. Got there an hour late.
