The flexibility. We bought many weeks before the day travel out tickets, the departure time was one hour after, just in case that maybe there was a delay with our airplane. Finally there was not delay . We asked the bus driver if we can travel with the one hour early bus , and he accepted.

Convenient travel to Bratislava. The bus was easy to find and on time. I did not know that there were two stops in Bratislava, but the driver informed me. I had difficulties to find the way out of the busstration in Bratislava because I didn't know that I had to go into the shopping mall.
