You think it's inconceivable that something might happen along the way that would imply being stuck in the middle of nowhere for a good while, including possibly overnight?
You think that Flixbus, or whichever company she travelled with, would immediately hasten to send a replacement coach? Or provide child-safe accommodation in whichever village on either side of the border?
Of course the most likely outcome of the coach ride was a more or less on-time arrival.
Similarly the most likely outcome of her overnight stay in the hotel was that nothing at all would happen... which appears to be the case.
Hey if you want to believe that someone travelling around the same distance as Brockville to Toronto early in the morning (the AC flight departs at 1250) by bus might end up overnighting on a bus if it breaks down, that's your prerogative.
Her origin is mentioned earlier in the thread, and it's around 3-3.5 hours from BUD. Not sure what Cluj etc to do with it. Unless you're arguing that our hapless Brockville-Toronto bus passengers need to wait for a replacement bus from ...I don't know ...London ON? Quebec City? Even then they wouldn't have to overnight.
So yes, I think it's inconcievable.
