- Passengers can take one piece of luggage (length + width + height should not exceed 62 inches/200 cm and should not weigh more than 50 pounds/20 kg) if they purchase general seating tickets or standard reserved seats. If you need to take a piece of extra luggage, you should purchase an additional ticket in advance.

BIKE POLICY
What is the bike policy on Megabus?
According to the Conditions of carriage of Megabus, standard adult bikes are not allowed on their busses because they exceed the maximum dimensions of Megabus luggage policy. If folding bikes and small children’s bikes meet the Megabus luggage allowance, they can be brought on the bus. According to the bike policy of Megabus, they must be securely stowed in a bag or box in the designated luggage area. Before boarding, we recommend you to contact Megabus and ask about the bike policy for the specific journey.
Alternatively, you can ship your bike with Eurosender and enjoy the ride with Megabus without carrying the bike or overweight luggage.
