Hello, Rumpeltux! Welcome to Wikivoyage.

To help get you started contributing, we've created a tips for new contributors page, full of helpful links about policies and guidelines and style, as well as some important information on copyleft and basic stuff like how to edit a page. If you need help, check out Project:Help, or post a message in the travellers' pub. --Globe-trotter (talk) 15:30, 28 September 2012 (CEST)

Hi, I do not think a bus timetable is something we should have on this site. Imagine if we did this for all locations! I suggest if this is an useful method of transport that a small paragraph on the service and a weblink in the Get around section would be better. --Traveler100 (talk) 06:06, 14 April 2015 (UTC)Reply

I think the missing availability of internet access in Cuba makes this very worthwhile information in wikivoyage. I’ve just been there and travelers essentially are offline for their entire visit to the country. Other travel guides also list the departure times of these buses. Most WV destination articles in Cuba currently just link to the website, but again, as it’s not accessible for a traveler (and doesn't provide an easy means to download a timetable in advance) this is completely useless when already in the country. As further rationale I’d add the reasons mentioned in the avoid links to other travel guides section in Wikivoyage:External_links#What_not_to_link_to. To avoid adding the departure times to each article, duplicating a lot of information that’s very hard to keep in sync, a central page with timetable and prices seems to make much more sense. --Rumpeltux (talk) 06:26, 14 April 2015 (UTC)Reply
