Bus to eastern Europe
I wrote: I wonder if anyone has taken a bus to eastern Europe
(particularly from Germany or comparable) and their experiences. [...] The buses that I am particularly interested in are the long-haul ones used by eastern European workers in western European countries (Germany in this case) to travel to and from their home country. I'd check out their position on smoking (not just whether there is a ban - whether they enforce it) before deciding. I'd rather do 48 hours on a smoke-free bus than one hour on a smoky one, and I guess an addict might not go for "next puff is in Kaliningrad". ============== j-c ====== @ ====== purr . demon . co . uk ============== Jack Campin: 11 Third St, Newtongrange EH22 4PU, Scotland | tel 0131 660 4760 http://www.purr.demon.co.uk/jack/ for CD-ROMs and free | fax 0870 0554 975 stuff: Scottish music, food intolerance, & Mac logic fonts | mob 07800 739 557 |

That's a good point which I hadn't even thought about because I am mainly used to flying. Smoking is bad enough with Germans, and I imagine with most eastern Europeans it is worse. George |

I'd rather do 48 hours on a smoke-free bus than one hour on a smoky one, and I guess an addict might not go for "next puff is in Kaliningrad". In this respect, I've found Eurolines to be very good. They have a non-smoking policy and on any of the buses I've taken (including eastern Europe) it's been enforced. Paradoxically, I've been on non-smoking buses in Manchester where the driver has smoked, and chucked the ash out of an open window. That's deregulation for you... -- David Horne- http://www.davidhorne.net usenet (at) davidhorne (dot) co (dot) uk http://homepage.mac.com/davidhornecomposer http://soundjunction.org |
