The bus we booked from Victoria Station to Stansted Airport on 7th September 2025 at 12:00 pm never arrived even though we had booked in advance and paid for 2 tickets, and we had to take a taxi at an additional cost to the airport.
Your company's service is unreliable and below the minimum standard. This is a big disappointment.

The train was cancelled due to a person committing suicide on the line. The replacement bus service was also delayed. I was due to meet guests (unaccompanied teenagers). By the time I eventually got to Stansted, they were understandably distraught
