Unfortunately not, it's fully ticketed departure and arrival spots 😞 I guess you could book multiple with lots of stops but it might get pretty expensive, probably better to look at renting a car if there's lots of stops!

Hi Jordan and Emily, glad you were able to make it successfully to New York. Be careful sightseeing around New York with all your camera gear and equipment. I once took and overnight bus from the suburbs of Chicago to Winnipeg Canada. It was in early spring and we ended up driving through fog and sleet so it made the trip longer than expected. Taking a bus does save money but flying is much easier.

This company hired clowns as customer service representatives who hung up on her when she called and refused to give her a refund. She had to spend almost $100 for Uber to the airport and had to pay extra to move her flight. I did my research and heard this is quite common with flix as well as peoples luggages getting stolen and unsafe drivers. I have encouraged her to file a law suit as they left her stranded in the middle of nowhere and she missed her flight. I pray everyday this trash company goes out of business

In Atlanta our trip was canceled after being there 9 hours with bus 0105 canceled 2xs. They offered a Voucher or Reassigned your route for another time. HOW convenient as a smart A** remark. NEVER AGAIN SAVE YOUR MONEY AND TAKE A SAFER ROUTE.
