Tip: drink a lot of fluids the day _before_ your ride so that you can avoid having to go to the bathroom during your ride.
Another tip: you have to go to the ticket office before your ride to show them the printout and get a ticket. They will then ask if you have a reservation, whatever that means....Even though my bicycle folded up, I still had to pay extra to store it in the luggage compartment. Fortunately, it was only 120 denars/2 Euros.
The border patrol upon leaving Kosovo took everyone's passports and later gave them back. Though this may be more efficient, it sets precedent for the abuse of power. Of course this has nothing to do with the bus company. Just something to be aware of.
