  • Won’t work if you stay more then 1 mile

    It never works for the people who stay on the very edge of the 2 mile radius even if it fall under the 2 mil radius. Specially the JP people they will never get a red eye. You will die booking a red eye but you will never find one never. Literally in my 2 years you I’ve noticed if you stay under 1 mile radius or 1.2 you will get a red eye within 5 mins but Jamaica plain which is 1.8 or 1.9 boom you’re done bruh go alone the way you want. Worst feeling ever.

    WHY does my app always say that the shuttle is “1 minute away” and then I end up waiting for 25 minutes? Absolutely ridiculous. I always end up back at my apartment at least 45 minutes later than if I just took the T.

  • Basically you can rather walk

    The drivers just park the vehicle a few minutes away from the pick up point and stall there for more than half an hour for no reason and we end up waiting in the cold the whole time.

  • late and hard to book

    the van always goes on 15 minute breaks when it says it’s 1 minute away. it should be easy to fix this so the time is accurate. they’re also incredibly hard to book and sometimes drive recklessly.

  • Too less shuttle bus, too long for waiting

    It’s 2:50am and it takes forever to get a seat on the bus. I’ve exhausted and almost passed out in the library ><

  • Absolutely Brutal

    It’s a Wednesday night at 11:45 and I’ve been attempting to schedule a ride home for the last hour and a half to no avail. App keeps stating that all the seats are all full. I find it astonishing that the school can’t figure out a way to make this service more efficient and dependable.

  • The Worst

    The school obviously need to fixed this. I’ve waited over an hour just to be notified that the ride is delayed with no further explanation

  • Just awful

    My experience with this shuttle has been an absolute nightmare. It takes upwards of 3 hours to book sometimes, and when I finally do, the drivers do sketchy things and make me end up waiting another hour on top of it. It’s 3 AM, I’ve been studying for an exam for hours and just want to get home safely. My shuttle driver has been parked by some playground on Mission Hill “7 minutes away” for the last 30 minutes. This is not the first time this has happened with said driver so I know it’s not some extenuating circumstance.

  • Why no rides?

    Even checking every hour, why are there no rides sometimes? Please fix this application so students do not have to obsessively re-check if a ride is available.

  • takes hours to get a ride- if you’re lucky

    As someone who has relied on the RedEye service for the last couple years, this app has caused many hours of distress and lost sleep due to the inability to book a ride for extended periods of time. The drivers for the most part are fantastic but the new app has serious issues that I hope can be fixed before it snows. As a backup maybe they can provide sleeping space at Snell?
