Excellent trip. First class bus got to Baguio from Pasay terminal in less than 5 hours, even with 4:30pm traffic in Manila and big rain along the way. Was a bonus being able to charge phone Only downside was the aircon, much too strong, everyone was wearing jumper

Wish I could find out if the other options that show no link means the bus is full (no more tickets) or not in service anymore.
