In reply to ed. Ed, this is the ONLY way to travel to another place in Mexico if people (or yourself) don't want to pay the money to fly and/or want to put up with all of the (in)security theater that's a part of air travel. If you don't like it, the next time you visit Mexico you should do regional visits (e.g. visit Acapulco on one trip, then Mexico City on another); Mexico doesn't have intercity passenger rail anymore, so bus travel like this is it.

One of the problems with ETN is that you cannot pre-book unless you have a Mexican credit card.
You will have to make arrangements thru. a travel agent.
Reclining seats can be a pain. Get seats 2 & 3 or the ones immediately behind the stairs…no one in front.

re: reclining seats–took Tufesa first class from Mazatlan to Tucson –19 hours — the person behind me had the seat blocked so i was unable to recline the seat .–19 hours in a seat that does not recline is NOT FIRST CLASS TRAVELING –they can take the first class bus traveling and shove it where the sun does not shine . ed

I’ve used ETN several times and agree with the article, it’s a nice ride. However, if the seats recline to a ‘bed like’ position what happens to the person behind such a seat? I always dread when I see a young person take the seat in front of mine, they, it seems, need a lot more bed time than we older folks.
