Did bus stop before Hauptbanoff. Started waiting at 8:30,gave up 10:30. No bus. A hard experience.

Driver took multiple detours down slow country roads, and at the end of the trip turned off the highway onto a back road to drive 30 minutes in the opposite direction away from our destination. He went to the airport for a few minutes, then went back to the highway we were on an hour before to complete the trip two hours late.
