The Coaster OmniCity's are the best ones. I don't see why people have a problem with them, there is nothing wrong with them.

I don't like the fact they rattle and I find them uncomefortable.

Every bus rattles though.

If there was anything bad about them comfort would be the last thing that would come to my mind!
The seats are nice, and especially in winter they are always warm.

You'd sharp change your mind if you have been on worse than these especially Arriva's Prestige's, now they rattled and shaked!
I don't mind Omnicitys.

They have some of the most comfortable seats in my opinion. They have loads of padding and are at a great angle apoased to being just straight up in the air and that's what kills your back.

If an OmniCity rattles and shakes I'd love too know what one of Arriva's Prestiges does!
Three words: lack of legroom.
If you don't get those seats towards the back near the emergency exit, you're knackered.

I liked Go North East's Prestiges, I don't usually go on Arriva services, I think at the end of the day it all goes down to person opinion.

The legroom in my opinion is OK, but that's probably because I'm not exactly tall
I think the Coaster could do with new buses, double deckers preferably, as the service can get very busy at times, especially Newcastle-North Shields.
Maybe they could trail the Streetdeck on there.

it will be worse for Peter Crouch or Costel Pantilimon there tall imagine them inside a bus they will break the roof

Sadly I can't say the same. Fortunately I do usually get to sit where I want on Omnicitys especially on the Arriva X66 as many of the passengers on that service are OAPs who all sit towards the front. The worst on the Arriva 05 reg examples, there is a forward and a backwards facing seats instead of a pushchair bay and there is barely room for one person never mind two, I once had to do a whole journey on the X66 sat with my back to the window.

Aye, put your feet up on the seat facing back eventhough there are clearly notices which tell customers not to do so
Mind you, the Trident Presidents have loads of room at the back. Absolutely bliss

Somehow Bazza, I don't think they would break the roof. Possibly a slight over-exaggeration?
Just getting back too the actual subject...
I think one thing that was apparent at this rally was the apparent lack of organisation. People didn't know what time the shuttles were leaving or where they were going. Some people didn't know where they were to park etc.

I knew the timetable because I visited the
official page however there should have been a printed timetable at the site.

The timetable was only put on the website an hour or so before the event.
In my opinion it was badly organised.
