If you book online, remember to bring your credit card used for booking with you when pick up your ticket at the bus station.

I am sorry, I do not know the current price, nor can I say what is the best bus service. If you really want the best, I am sure that there are some luxury sleeper buses that provide greater comfort and even drinks and probably even some food. I would say that in general first class buses should be satisfactory (especially for day travel as the journey only takes about 6 hours) and are significantly cheaper.

Unless it is a special holiday, I would not worry about getting tickets by internet or the day before. There are so many buses making this trip (One about every half hour until 01:30 AM on one company alone.), I'd just go to the TAPO station (not far from the airport) and buy my ticket just before departure. That way I would not have to worry about missing a bus I already have paid a ticket for.

i would recomend ado

Just be aware : on Ticketbus, the sign $ means pesos, not dollar. Have a great trip !
