FlixBus Philadelphia Providence recent customer reviews

Full bus, 85° outside, bright cloudless day, and the AC on the bus doesn't work. Nor do the outlets or reading lights. About 20 miles into Connecticut, the driver pulls onto the shoulder to use the restroom and gets locked out of the bus controls. Takes 45 min plus to get moving
