    Quick Shuttle Bus Service - Entrance to ride from hell.. it's anything but Welcome!!

    Quick Shuttle Bus Service

    I'm surprised how many negative reviews Quick Shuttle received on yelp. My first experience with…read moreQuick Shuttle was the most pleasant and smooth experience with a coach bus crossing the border to the states i've ever had. My friend and I used them in December to go from Vancouver to Seattle. The meeting place was across waterfront center in Vancouver but the bus didn't show up at 8:40am when the bus was scheduled to come. Instead the driver himself came over and escorted us to the bus where he parked it half a block away. He came over exactly at 8:40am as scheduled. As for the bus itself, the bus had things you'd typically see on coach busses. USB ports and wall outlets for charging things and reading lights. The seats were very comfortable with ample leg room. They were comfy as they were leather seats. You can easily recline the seats for sleeping. Nobody was behind my seat so I reclined a bit as I took a nap on the smooth bus ride. At least, smooth as you can get on a bus on the road which was a little bumpy at times. I like how the seats were not assigned and you don't have to pay extra just to sit near the front (im looking at you flixbus!) Our driver was great. I want to give a shout out to Samuel L., who was our driver for our trip. Super nice and approachable driver. He laid out the bus rules in a friendly manner and helped out as much as he could regarding the US declaration forms. On the morning the bus trip to Seattle was scheduled, I received a text message from Samuel thanking me for choosing quick shuttle and he introduced himself. He also said to bring a jacket in case the AC is too cold. We were given a tracking link to track the bus. After the bus left, we received another text message thanking us for coming and being great passengers. Samuel left his phone number and invited us to give him any feedback or any questions we may have via text. He's pretty talented as he spoke multiple languages, with english, french, spanish, and a european language i can't quite pinpoint. He was cracking a couple jokes here and there which made some of the passengers chuckle. They were mostly dad jokes lol. He even asked random people that with suitcases on the street near the bus if they were going to board to go seattle as a joke i think, haha. Samuel went above and beyond by providing US declaration forms in many different languages like Chinese and Vietnamese and was easily approachable if we needed any questions (sometimes the drivers only provide english forms) He was pretty efficient in getting the suitcases unloaded and reloaded at the border. He warned us multiple times that the US border is very strict on claiming foods and asked each passenger if they brought any food. He reminded passengers a couple times that the bus is a quiet bus and to only talk at the back part of the bus which i appreciate. Getting on the bus was smooth. You didn't need to present anything. The only thing needed to get on the bus was to verbally confirm your name and last four digits of your phone number. Samuel did a role call for all the passengers. When one passenger was almost late for the bus, he didn't just leave. He personally called the passenger to come aboard to see where he was. I wanted to tip him some cash for being a great driver but he did not accept it and said that my presence as being a pleasant passengers was enough. (He's so darn genuine!) If some passengers didn't bring a pen to fill out a declaration form, he provided a couple of pens for us to borrow. He even offered cookies and candy as a token of his appreciation for choosing quick shuttle. The bus arrived on time and made it to our destination on time, and I felt safe the entire time because our driver didn't speed and drove like a normal, sane person. I highly recommend quick shuttle at least for the trip from vancouver to seattle. If you get samuel as your driver, you're in great hands! If you don't believe me, look at the dozens of positive google reviews on quick shuttle mentioning Samuel lol. 5 huge stars out of 5 for Quick shuttle. I'd give it 6 stars if i could! Edit: I went on quick shuttle again a few days later and it was a much more standard bus ride (no free treats, text messages, or very friendly driver) but I still had a good experience on the trip to Seattle.

We were able to jump back on very conveniently from cruise port and head back to Seattle. Bus was clean and driver was extremely friendly. Most bad reviews tended to deal will commute time. Your on a bus that needs to make stops and stop at border....Its going to take more time than a car. This was a lifesaver.

Although I try to beg and negotiate. There are no TRAINS in service today. I normally go to my work,church meetings and other appointments thru train (with my scooter with me) I did try to explain that this is my only way to go to places thru a train and they know that there is no train services today. I TRY TO NEGOTIATE TO ATTEND OUR CHURCH ACTIVITY TODAY ): One translink personnel said I have to call translink and see if they allow me and point me to a sticker with a number. "Really at this very moment that I am running late to our church activity?" I beg the driver if only they can give me a chance as I have no other way to go and i dont have sufficient money in my bank to ride an uber. Uber cost 80- 100$ to go there. The 3rd driver told me that it is not their worries and I have to ride a taxi or uber. (GOD' sake.) How rude and heartless!!!!!!!! Buses drivers R591 between 5:15 to 6:30PM. PLEASE TRANSLINK AUTHORITY. DO SOMETHING ON THIS. WE ARE NOT ALL SAME like others who got PRIVILEDGE HERE TO HAVE A PERSONAL TRANSPORT and CAR AND HAVE LOTS OF MONEY TO RIDE A TAXI O UBER. I did research that in Queensland it is allowed as long as it gets folded.

    One of the original Expo line stations. Great for accessing BC Place and Rogers Arena (stadiums),…read moreas well as Costco next door. Part of Chinatown is a short walk E of the station. A certain chunk of it may actually be closer to Main/Science World station, which is the next station E of this one. The station is originally built with 3 platforms, but currently only 2 are used. Apparently the 3rd platform was built mainly for a shuttle service for Expo '86. One thing that's nice is that there is now decent cell phone reception inside the tunnels going into downtown. Still remember a few years back (2010s and earlier) when the entire tunnel system was a giant dead spot. For wheelchair accessibility, there are a series of elevators and ramps available at the W (Beatty) and NE (Keefer) entrances, but not at the S (Expo) entrance. Oh yeah, this station becomes a complete war zone whenever there's a concert or hockey game at either stadium. Double whammy if both have an event on the same day. In these situations it's actually better and faster to walk to and board at an adjacent station.

    Nearest station for expo line, this station is elevated compared to street level. One can use…read moretouch enabled payment methods, which makes it very convenient. But unlike other cities that uses touch payment for their mass transit, like NYC and London, where they optimize your cost, vancouver seems to charge an unusually high charge for visitors. It was $4.60 USD (after conversion) for travel in the same zone one-way per person. Our trip was less than one mile, and it cost more than an Uber ride if you have 2 people traveling together.
