Tried Regiojet, it is great and i am too optimistic

Last weekend, I took the RegioJet from Budapest to Vienna. I liked it; it had better rolling stock than the national railway (MÁV), and it was around €4 cheaper.

I originally booked a ticket for my friend too, but he fell ill, so I needed to cancel it. I received the money back in my bank account within two working days.

Anyway, back to the travel experience: it was... mixed.

The journey to Vienna was great. I booked Astra class and could easily order food and drink to my seat. I got free water and could even order free coffee. Their apple pie was great at just €0.50. I even got a metal fork with it! The toilet was also clean and felt bigger than the ones on MÁV rolling stock, but i am not sure on that one.

But the journey back was not as good. The app said it would be 15 minutes late, so I wasn't in a hurry. I walked around the city and explored it for a bit, arriving 15 minutes before the app said it would leave.

It wasn't late though, so I just missed it even though the app said it was. Nice. I suppose that was my mistake, but at least their service is good and the flixbus back was cheap and empty.
