I would avoid buses at all costs when it comes to long distance travel. Just thinking about having to worry about bathroom breaks makes me anxious 😅

I actually quite enjoy taking Amtrak. I go back and forth between NJ and DC quite a bit and almost always take the train. Like mentioned above, you could at least lie flat on the train if you had to.

Buses are too sus for such long travel. You could try lie flat bed on Amtrak. They have okayish food onboard!

You sure you don’t want to fly? You’ll be home much sooner. Ground transport takes forever. I had a friend deal with a mechanical breakdown on Flixbus and it was a whole ordeal.

Yes sure. Flying could cause infection after my surgery especially since I am prone to them. Is there Amtrak from NY to ATL?
