Ich bewerte positiv den Verlauf der Busreisse,Sicherheitsgefühl hatte ich stets dabei.Das Einzige,was ich bemängeln kann,ich hätte mindestens „ein wenig“ Hilfe bei der Manipulation mit meinem Koffer (sowohl bei dem Einbringen, als auch bei dem Abholen von dem Kofferraum) erwartet.Ich verstehe schon,dass es körperlich für den Zuständigen sehr anspruchsvoll ist,die Koffer rein - und rausgeben zu müssen ,aber nur zuschauen , wie anstrengt es für eine Frau ist , es alleine tun zu müssen,finde ich nicht passend. Ich habe es bewältigt ,alleine mit Mühe zu Recht zu kommen,wärend er mir zuschaute, eine Frau vor mir musste die Hilfe eines anderen Reisenden (Mannes)in Anspruch nehmen-!wie gut dass er bereit war ihr zu helfen,sonnst würde der Koffer noch in Zürich stehen!Wir mussten unsere Kioffer ziemlich hochheben und keine Hilfe dabei bekommen!
