They expanded their service to New Orleans this year, that was really sweet. We took it with a bunch of friends and it was sooo much cheaper than driving.

last time i took megabus, they overbooked and i ended up waiting at the station in NYC for 2 hours. It's definitely what you pay for. great when you get your a$$ on the bus but you never know what might happen haha

It runs to the four main cities in Texas - OK, not Dallas unless you know someone who can pick you up or drop you off in Grand Prairie :rolleyes: And for some unknown reason it even goes to Del Rio :eek: Even Galveston (only twice a day though).
And you can connect to quite a few out other places, for example the Big Easy :)
Now if they can just move the bus stop from Grand Prairie to downtown Dallas, they will get my business @:-)

I try not to take MegaBus for this reason. They have to wait for a bus to return in order to use it, and traffic going into the city is usually bad during peak times.
I generally like Bolt Bus better, but their destination and seats are more limited. I know Bolt specifically sends a bus ahead of time at the pick up stop. I've had great experiences going between NY and Philly.
