Greyhound is super sketchy. Service is terrible. About 10 yrs ago, I made the near-mistake of taking a Greyhound to a different city to catch a cheap international flight. I was going from a remote city to a big one. Luckily I had given myself a buffer of 8-12 hours. The bus was initially a couple of hours late for a 5 hour trip. Then, at a transit point we had to change buses and we were told that ticket doesn't guarantee seat and it's first come first serve! And there's only one bus per day from the less remote connecting city! I was lucky to get into the bus that day and not missing what turned out to be a memorable vacation. I only rode Greyhound one other time. Other observations: Greyhound stations are super sketchy in many cities. Buses are sometimes poorly maintained. Tickets are pricey. Etc.
