The catch to flying back to Roanoke on Sunday is that students must get an Airport Transfer from the Smartway bus driver on their way out for break. If they don’t get the transfer (or lose it while they’re on break), they’ll have to pay the full price of the car service on their return. Sometimes they’ll cut students a break, but most of the time they’re out of luck if they don’t have one. Be sure to read the restrictions for the Sunday service on Smartway’s fare page.

BTW, also be aware that Amtrak is now a possibility as well because Smartway is running a bus link from VT to the Lynchburg train station. It may not be practical for a trip as far as Massachusetts, but you can check out the ‘Amtrak Connector’ link on Smartway’s home page for more details.
