Terrible - I arrived ten minutes early and the bus in the gate wasn't moving, had it's lights off. 30 minutes later the bus driver emerged and claimed we'd all missed the bus, wouldn't let ppl on, could barely communicate. Finally relented. Got into NYC way later as a result. No charging, no wifi - overpriced!

What I missed most was the lack of information related to the route, places we passed by. I expected more from Business Class. For example some service, like a bottle of water. Except of the above, the journey was pleasant.
