This document provides tips for securing a seat on a crowded bus commute. It suggests guarding just one seat for as long as possible to increase your chances of getting that seat when it empties. Standing to the right of the entryway allows you to watch multiple seats. Look for people carrying groceries who are more likely getting off soon, as well as those sitting in the back who may get off earlier. Assumptions are made that sleeping people and those carrying items are traveling shorter distances.
