How to use this guidance

The labels aggregate recommendation and avoid patterns from modelled scenarios. They are not ratings. Scenario coverage is heavily skewed toward airport-to-hotel trips, and sparse modes are labelled rather than filled with invented claims.

Safety and planning notes

VinBus

Planning note

Check the latest route and stop with the operator before leaving.

What to watch

Phase16 live rows are placeholders and must not be shown as current service status.

Grab Car

Planning note

Check the pickup pin and vehicle plate before boarding.

What to watch

The dataset contains recommendation patterns, not a live Grab integration.

Taxi

Planning note

Confirm the fare basis and destination before departure.

What to watch

Frequently asked questions

Does this show live fares, schedules or vehicle availability?

No. Phase18 is not production-ready and Phase16 live rows are model seeds. Confirm every operational detail directly.

Why do many examples focus on the airport?

The source scenario coverage is skewed toward Airport-to-Hotel journeys. Treat other trip types as lower-confidence planning guidance.

Is scooter or Grab Bike recommended in rain?

The model carries strong avoid signals for two-wheel travel in rain and safety-sensitive situations. Use current official conditions and your own legal and safety assessment.
