I'm a plane person. Planes are like my taxis. So when I had a recent appointment in Berlin, and my visa company booked me on a bus trip, I was skeptical, to say the least, lol. But at around 34 euro round trip, (less than $50 USD), I figured it was just a day-trip so I would try it out. Also, read up on the bus line a little so that I knew what I was in for. You can make your reservation online and pay right away; otherwise, the system sends you an e-mail with the payment request, which you must pay within a certain time frame or your reservation will be canceled. You choose your seat at the time of reservation, but the stewardess checking me in was accommodating when I asked to switch my seat.
So, luxury bus, leather seats, like you would see inside an airplane; complete with in-seat monitors on all the headrests. Complimentary internet (no password needed), and charging outlet at the seats. There is a stewardess who welcomes you onboard, cautions to fasten your seatbelt, and announces your stops. Stewardess also serves hot beverages at multiple times throughout the trip. All in all, it was not a bad experience and price versus quality was good. RegioJet is a good, inexpensive option to city-hop throughout Europe
To note: The driver locked the bathroom door when a customer tried to use the onboard toilet before the bus left (as we were getting on) and apparently forgot to unlock it as the trip progressed. Just ask the stewardess for help. read more
