Absolutely, if it fits your timing. It’s cheaper than a rideshare, kinder to the planet, and honestly? It’s a little quirky. You might even meet someone else running late for a dinner, or a driver who slips you a candy cane. Stranger things have happened on holiday transit.
Just don’t expect a party on wheels. Expect a quiet, cozy, slightly unpredictable experience. If you’re the type who likes a bit of organized spontaneity, the Christmas Eve bus is your ride. If you crave total control? Maybe call a cab. But you’ll miss out on that gentle, rolling view of the city all dressed up in lights.
One last thing: if you do take the bus, say "Merry Christmas" to the driver. They’re the unsung heroes of December 24th, keeping the wheels turning while everyone else is sipping cocoa. They deserve a smile and a wave. And hey, maybe they’ll even let you sit in the front seat.
So, yes—buses are running on Christmas Eve. Just barely, but enough to get you where you need to go. Consider it a small, stubborn miracle of public transit. And if you get stuck waiting a little extra? Use the time to watch the stars—or the streetlights pretending to be stars. It’s all part of the chill Christmas Eve vibe.
