This was the worst travel experience of my life. According to Orleans Express, we were supposed to get picked up at 10am. Did this happen? Absolutely not. not a single person got an email, call, or text about what was going on. instead we had to call them and wait on hold for 30 minutes, only for them to tell us that the bus was delayed due to an accident on the road. Funny that they said that considering, a different person called asking why there was a delay, and they told that person it was because of bad weather.... meanwhile it was clear skies outside. When asked for an ETA on the bus, Orleans express said they could only tell us that the bus had left the warehouse as they had no way to track it. They suggested to us to call Red Arrow (which are the buses Orleans Express uses), because perhaps Red Arrow had a way to track their own bus. upon calling Red Arrow, we found that they did not in fact have a way to track the bus, and claimed that was the whole issue of the situation. At 12:30pm we called Orleans express for the 3rd time asking what the ETA of the bus would be because at this point it had been three and a half hours. They told us the bus would be arriving at 1:30. The problem with this is that no one knew where exactly we were getting picked up. In the email it stated that we would be getting picked up in bay 3 next to where the 20 Jane bus arrives... however, another person who was waiting with everyone for the bus, said that Orleans Express very typically picks people up at the incorrect spot that is not specified in the email. We all figured this would be okay, and that the bus would arrive in a spot we can see and that we'd be able to walk over to it... but boy were we wrong... At 1:45 someone got off the phone with someone from customer service and revealed to everyone that apparently, the bus had arrived at 1:20 and loaded 16 out of 23 passengers. Not one single person in this large group of people had seen the bus. We were all at the correct pickup spot according to what Orleans Express provided us with. Someone else called Orleans express, and they told them that at 1:20 the bus arrived and loaded 12 out of 28 passengers.... So now there is suddenly another pair of inconsistent information being provided to us. I'm really not sure why the bus just didn't come to the correct spot (whether they were missing 7 or 16 people), I'm not really sure why they didn't call, email, or text anyone who signed up to received notifications, and I'm not really sure why they have this completely unorganized, inefficient, and frankly ridiculous system set up. While I will most likely be getting a refund for the bus cost itself, that does not account for the cost of transportation to the pickup spot, the cost of finding a place to stay for an extra night, the cost of spending more on food, and the cost of my last minute transportation I have to take tomorrow. I waisted my time sitting there and waiting, I'm missing my university classes that I need to attend and will therefore be missing a grade because I cannot attend, and I'm just completely tired. Never, and I mean NEVER take Orleans Express. read more
