Punctuality was very good and it didn't took long to get to the airport from the city centre and vice versa. Only thing that wasn't good was the driving style of the driver, I sometimes haf the feeling of throwing up but I can't complain because it was only 10€.

Booked in advance via the app. At the stop we were given priority over the large group that was standing there. Had a great trip.

There was no problem! It was flawless! Without a doubt I know what for the next time I will resort again

Super punctual. Best way to get to and from the airport without stress.

Very precise directions about bus stop (east to find).
