    Rock, Rock, Rock... to Rockaway Beach, Queens! I would cross this bridge via Q21 Bus nearly everyday for four consecutive years to/from high school. A breathtaking view of Rockaway Beach and John F. Kennedy (JFK) Airport is visible on a clear day for a brief escape from life's daily deal of the daily grind. Cross Bay Veterans Memorial Bridge is maintained by Triborough Bridge and Tunnel Authority opened in 1970. Toll is minimal at $3.25 cash; and E-ZPass equipped at $1.80. Rockaway residents, however, are discounted where E-ZPass tags are tracked by the region's six zip codes for these residents who are travelling in and out of mainland Queens. A functional low level bascule (drawbridge) that permits boats to pass which connects to mainland Queens and Belt Parkway Expressway, and the Southern State Parkway. It connects Broad Channel into Rockaway Peninsula enabling traveling into mainland Queens.

    There is never any traffic on this bridge. You do get a nice view of the manhattan city line when crossing out of the rockaways

    On Labor Day Monday, I took the Hampton Luxury Liner from Manhattan to Montauk. I thought the bus…read morewas going to be full since it was a holiday. It was empty. Excluding me and the driver, there were about 10 passengers. I had two seats to myself. And speaking of seats, they were very comfortable. There was decent legroom (I'm 6'1"). Initially, I couldn't find the outlet. I eventually discovered that it' was hidden under the seat. And unlike the Hampton Jitney, the bus wasn't covered with a tacky looking wrapping. The bus left Manhattan at 1 PM. It was scheduled to arrive at Montauk at 4:15 PM. It arrived at 3:28. And with that said, the ride was far from perfect. The bus was as bumpy as a school bus. It was pure torture. The driver seemed like he didn't want to be bothered. He wasn't mean, just apathetic. Other than checking in people and announcing the stops in a soft voice, he said nothing. I paid $34 which is reasonable. The Luxury Liner doesn't run nearly as frequently as the Jitney or LIRR Montauk branch. Furthermore, you don't get the VIP treatment like on the Hampton Ambassador. If you're looking for a no frills experience and you don't care about comfort then the Luxury Liner is ideal.

The nasty customer rep said it's not responsible for buses held up in traffic and that they did send a text notification. This was a lie. Like me, the dozen people who waited there received no notification. No credit was offered from this horrible company.

    This Bus Company is a horrible business. Attempted to leave our over 40 kids stranded. I will be…read moresharing this report to the Better Business Beauru as well. Read below, a lot but details explain their failure and bad business practices. On Tuesday May 23rd, 2023, Best Trails and Travels located on 5 Sigourney Street Brooklyn NY 11231 sent a charter confirmation to the Southern Queens Park Association [SQPA] for a 56 Passenger Coach Bus for date of service starting 5/25/2023 at 6:15am and ending 5/25/23: drop off time at 4:00pm. Driver Shabazz was noted as the bus operator of the passenger coach that day. Sales Representative Nadia booked Charter #91638 with Dispatch #185149. As it is procedure, SQPA inform Best Trails we are a 501©(3), and that payments can only be made through check or ACH Payment. Best Trail and Travel notified us that they would only be taking certified checks and that ACH Payment would be the best option for them. The fiscal department at SQPA was then notified to process the payment. Once the payment was processed, Best Trails and Travel was then notified by director of community schools Herman Turner. Best Trails and Travels then verbally confirmed that they will be there on Thursday Morning for the students, for pick up, and the final drop off at I.S 008 108-35 167th Street Jamaica NY 11433. On Thursday May 25th 2023, at approximately 6:15am, our students were picked up from: I.S 008 108-35 167th Street Jamaica NY 11433. They were dropped off to: Honors Haven located at 1195 Arrowhead Road NY 12428. At approximately 11:30am, we SQPA was notified that Best Trails and Travels would no longer be taking our children back to the final drop off location due to lack of payment. The Fiscal Department at SQPA was then notified about the situation. The fiscal department then sent proof of ACH Payment for the Charter Company. Best Trails and Travels then transferred us to yet another sales representative named Pru, that also stated they will not be bringing the children back on the charter with the Driver Shabazz. Operations Manager Robert Shields, who was notified of the situation confirmed that our students will be stranded and that their driver was leaving them at Honor Haven. Showing no interest in the wellness and safety of the students, Mr. Shields demanded that we pay using a credit or debit card most promptly. Shields' repeatedly stating that our children would be left indefinitely, mentioned that the SQPA was in contract and that we should have had the payment sent over at an earlier date. Shields then demanded once more that we make a payment by credit or debit card immediately with threatening tones. When asked why the bus was sent over if the verbal agreement was not enough, Shield's stated "My driver is coming back." Shields then hung up the phone and all available staff then started to assist in finding other bus companies that can assist us because our students were now being left stranded over two hours away from home with no direct form of transportation. At approximately 2pm, we received another call from a female Representative from Best Trails and Travels that they can confirm that the payment was made to the right account and that they were no longer going to leave our children stranded. They apologized for the behavior of Mr. Robert Shields and our children were able to come home.
