Manila to Baguio Destination Reviews

During our return trip from Baguio to Manila, we encountered an issue at the counter when we were informed that my ticket had already been redeemed. I am unsure how this could have happened, as I had not used it prior to that moment. The staff had to backtrack and review ticket copies, which took more than 30 minutes to resolve. This caused a delay in our scheduled departure time (March 2- 5am). I respectfully suggest that Victory Liner review this incident and implement measures to prevent similar issues in the future, to ensure a smoother and more efficient experience for passengers.

I wish the foot platform can be more adjusted to higher level to accommodate less than 5foot passengers like me :)

Booked the VIP bus, was unfortunately sat next to the toilet, which made out seat pitch a tad smaller too. I feel as though it did not picture the toilet on the seat map… otherwise I would have chosen other seats. So maybe don’t sit in the middle of the bus just incase
