It was super crowded even though it was a weekday.

It was a bus from the Rusutsu Westin to New Chitose Airport. Although it was a weekday, there were many passengers from Niseko, and even couples and groups were using one seat each, making it feel full in a way. I had a hard time finding a place to sit because people were reluctant to share seats with luggage on them. I would like the staff to instruct couples and groups to share seats based on the number of passengers. The service from vertra was very good.ルスツウェスティンから千歳空港までのバスでした。 平日でしたが、ニセコからも沢山の乗客で 夫婦やグループでも、1人づつ席を使うので、 ある意味、満席。 座席に荷物をおいて、相席を嫌がられ、 座るのに苦労しました。 案内の係りの人は、乗客の人数をみて、 夫婦やグループは、相席をするように指導して欲しいです。 vertraさんの対応は、とても良いです。

We are truly sorry to hear that you felt cramped during your time on the bus.

It was more expensive compared to other buses, but I used it because it stopped at my hotel. The bus also had USB power outlets.他のバスと比較すると高かったのですが、宿泊ホテルに立ち寄るので利用しました。バスにはUSB電源もついていていました。

I thought the person in the back seat was chatting a bit too much, but since it was a special trip, I hesitated to say anything. If it weren't for the COVID period, it wouldn't have bothered me at all.後ろの席の方が少しおしゃべりしすぎかなぁとは思いましたがせっかくの旅行ですから注意するのも遠慮してしまいました。 コロナの時期でなければ気にならない程度なんですけどね。

Used from Rusutsu Resort. I visited in March. I was relieved by the on-time departure amidst the remaining snow. There was also a restroom break along the way, which made it comfortable.ルスツリゾートから利用。 3月の利用でした。雪が残る中、定刻通りの出発に安心しました。 途中のトイレ休憩もあり、快適でした。

There are also many shops, and since it's the end of the season, everything is discounted! If I had known, I could have planned for after skiing too... it would have added another layer of enjoyment! What a shame! - Still, there are plenty of tools like local guidebooks available. I wandered around with that guide in hand. The first restaurant I reserved turned me away because I didn't have a reservation. Next... since it was an early time and just for one person... it was okay. The chef-owner is said to have a Michelin star, and I was very satisfied with the unique Hokkaido dishes like "herring sashimi" and "Ezo deer carpaccio"! I enjoyed the last night of my solo ski trip in Hokkaido while indulging in wine. ・ニセコ/ヒラフの情報を事前にもっと収集しておくべきであったなと思いました。 ・コースだとか積雪情報とかは事前収集可能ですが、アフタースキーでのレストラン情報など・・・。またSHOPもたくさんあり、シーズン最後という事もあり、みんなディスカウント! 知っていればアフタースキーもそのつもりで・・・もう一つ楽しみが増えたのに? 残念! ・それでも、現地地元ガイド本などツールは豊富。そのガイド片手にブラブラ。最初の予約レストランは、予約が無ければと断られました。次に・・・早い時間でしかも1名という事で・・・OK… ・ニセコ/ヒラフの情報を事前にもっと収集しておくべきであったなと思いました。 ・コースだとか積雪情報とかは事前収集可能ですが、アフタースキーでのレストラン情報など・・・。またSHOPもたくさんあり、シーズン最後という事もあり、みんなディスカウント! 知っていればアフタースキーもそのつもりで・・・もう一つ楽しみが増えたのに? 残念! ・それでも、現地地元ガイド本などツールは豊富。そのガイド片手にブラブラ。最初の予約レストランは、予約が無ければと断られました。次に・・・早い時間でしかも1名という事で・・・OK。シェフオーナーはミシュランを持つ方だそうで、北海道ならではの「ニシンの刺身」「蝦夷シカのカルパッチョ」には大満足!ワインに酔いしれながら北海道スキー1人旅最後の夜を堪能しました。

It was a shuttle bus from Niseko to Rusutsu. Last year, there were two passengers sitting alone in each two-person seat, so there were no empty seats from Rusutsu, and we had to share seats. However, the passengers moved to their companions' seats, allowing us to sit down. This time, there were no such issues, and there were empty seats, so I was able to board with peace of mind. I would like to use this service again next season.ニセコからルスツへのお迎えのバスでした。昨年は、ニセコからの乗客が二人席に1人づつ座っていたため、ルスツからは、空席が無く、仕方なく相席にしようとしたところ、それぞれの連れの席へ移動してくれたため、座る事ができました。しかし、今回はその様な事もなく、空席があり、安心して乗車できました。来シーズンも使いたいと思います。
