Bus tickets and seat allocation
The driver will collect or stamp your tickets and allocate seats when getting on, or when leaving the bus. Different styles of seat identification exist on various services.
Bus storage compartment
Cabin baggage is permitted on
the bus, but large baggage should be placed in the storage
compartment. A baggage deposit ticket is required to claim
baggage.
