Megabus Recommended
Friday, 24 November 2006
After a nice extended weekend in Chicago, I am back in the Queen City.  I would give the entire Megabus experience a score of 8 out of 10.  It is hard to complain about Megabus when it only cost us $22 round trip.  The bus picked us up from 4th & Race in downtown Cincinnati and after an hour into the drive, we stopped at a McDonald’s in Indiana.  We spent 20 minutes there and then proceeded to downtown Indianapolis to pick up more passengers.  After about 20 minutes on the road (around Zionsville, Indiana) we stopped again at a truck stop with a Popeye’s Chicken.  The bus experience started to take a negative turn when the bus driver came on board and said that he needed to turn around because a passenger was late to the bus stop in Indianapolis.  Well you can imagine that many of us weren’t happy and after our complaining, many of us called Megabus customer service and were able to convince them to turn the bus around back to Chicago.  The crowd broke out in applause.  The ride went smooth after that and we arrived at Union Station in downtown Chicago about 45 minutes late.  On the return there was a stop at the same Popeye’s Chicken Truck Stop and downtown Indianapolis and we actually got into downtown Cincinnati 15 minutes earlier then scheduled.  I would give the trip to Chicago a 6 out of 10 and the return back to Cincinnati a 10 out of 10 hence my 8 out of 10 score.  I would recommend Megabus as a great way to travel to Chicago and would take it again.  You can’t beat the cost, the bus was clean and the other passengers were well groomed.  If you drive, you are paying between $25-35 a day to park, plus gas and tolls and if you fly the cab fare alone from O’Hare Airport is $45.  I took about 250 photos on this trip and will post them shortly.  Here is a photo of the Megabus I took at the first stop .
