I’m headed to a camping festival. Will there be enough space on the bus for my camping equipment?
For camping festivals, we ask that passengers limit their gear to a total of three items. For example, you could bring one large bag, one tent and one cooler. We are unfortunately not able to accommodate any luggage wagons or trucks on the bus. We ask that you do not bring luggage wagons with you to the bus as they will not be permitted onboard.
Do the buses stop at a grocery store?
Yes! All our buses from Chicago, Columbus, Detroit, New York and Muskegon all stop at Walmart on the way. A selection of buses from Grand Rapids Airport also stops at Walmart on the way (check the itinerary based on your departure time).
How can I switch my bus ticket for another day or time?
Yes, if there is room on the trip that you want, then you will be able to change your ticket.
