I will be traveling from NY to Boston tomorrow, and need to be on a bus with internet access. I have narrowed it down to the Limoliner and Bolt Bus. There is a substantial difference in price - Limoliner is $75 each way, while Bolt Bus is $17.50.
This is a question for those of you who have used both. Is Limoliner substantially nicer? Is the internet connection better? Basically - is it worth the extra cost?
Limoliner versus Bolt Bus
My coworker RAVES about Limoliner. She takes it to NYC and loves it. To her, it%26#39;s worth the extra cost. Me, I%26#39;m a cheapskate and I typically take something like Megabus.
I%26#39;ve never been on Bolt, but there%26#39;s a recent post here about someone%26#39;s Bolt bus experience. Not good.
Limoliner versus Bolt Bus
I%26#39;ve taken both the Limo Liner and the Bolt Bus many, many, many times! If internet access is a must, Limo Liner is definitely the way to go. Bolt Bus is clean and generally reliable, but their internet is spotty, at best. Also, Limo Liner has fold out lap tables, so it%26#39;s a lot easier to use your computer; on Bolt Bus, you would have to hold your computer in your lap.
Finally, both are really popular services and tend to sell out. Book a ticket on one or the other soon!
I%26#39;ve never been on Limoliner but was on Bolt last week. On the way from Boston to NY, the driver stopped twice to %26#39;reset%26#39; the Internet ... I wasn%26#39;t using it, so I don%26#39;t know if it stayed on.
On the way home, fellow passengers said it was %26#39;spotty%26#39; and they were trying to write complaint emails to Bolt.

Limoliner is like first class on a airplane and Bolt is like coach go first class you will love it.
