Rider Express Red Deer Calgary recent customer reviews
Everything was good except the surprise that I wouldn’t be dropped at the airport but that I would be dropped at a different spot and then taken my shuttle to the airport. I was fortunate to have a bit of extra time at the airport but if I hadn’t had a bit of extra time, I would have missed my flight. Didn’t love the surprise when I got on the bus.
4.0 out of 5 stars

The trip was all good. The driver have always informed us where we were heading, which stop first and which one follows. I also noticed that the trip from Red deer to Calgary (Panatella station) Rider express provides airport ahuttle and that's really very convenient for those heading to the airport. Well done to Rider Express.

The ride was enjoyable, there was an attendant while loading the bus that insisted passengers were assigned seats. It’s kind of annoying that there were only four people on the whole bus. I would have liked to sit closer to the front.

The Canada Bus Red Deer Calgary recent customer reviews
We waited at the spot we were told to at the Tim Hortons on 77th St. .The bus was supposed to arrive at 5:45. No bus -at 6:20 a bus arrived -by that time we were wondering what we were going to do because there was no one to phone and see if there was a delay on our bus. We had a flight to catch at the Calgary airport and it was very distressing to the three of us
I think when there is a delay like that, there should be a number that we can call and find out what the delay is. Also not having a place to wait while your bus is arriving is very inconvenient. Standing outside in the parking lot of a Tim Hortons is not very nice.
Would I take your bus again -no
The driver was polite and a good driver.

There was no update on the late arrival of the bus eventually we found a number to call and was informed that it was still on its way… being almost an hour late they then wanted me to load our own suitcases in the under storage area which then had a knock on effect at the time it arrived at the airport being it should of arrived at 19.10 … it then dropped us at the local departures which when I eventually got to my international departure area they had closed the gate and would not let me drop my bag, so I then had to put my bag in a secure bag drop area for my daughter to collect within 24 hours for me to run to my gate this was the worst bus company I have ever booked with and I have booked every time with red arrow and eBus I will never book with Canada bus again.

Tracey S.
The bus driver was very helpful and kind. However I would like to have had a seat with a foot rest. At my age (78) I need to elevate my legs as much as possible and the front seat he gave me had none. I had a seat with a foot rest booked with my ticket but I did not get it. A small thing that would have made my trip so much better.
Users have shared a mix of experiences with this bus service. Many appreciated the politeness and professionalism of the drivers, who were often helpful at destinations. However, several reviews noted that buses frequently arrived late without prior notification or communication to passengers.
