The bus service in Portugal is highly praised for its efficiency and comfortable seats. However, some customers have reported issues such as assigned separated seats on the way back, late arrival times causing almost missed flights, and a lack of information regarding delays. Additionally, there were concerns about a rundown bus and health safety due to passengers not wearing masks when necessary. Overall, the service seems satisfactory with room for improvement in communication and punctuality.
