Your best chance at a choice of seat is when there are fewer university passengers aboard. Choose a time when fewer of them would be travelling (not on evenings, Fridays, weekends generally). Alternately, board at the first stop at UW.
^ what he said. The front row seats fill up early (even if the rest of the bus is empty) - the best bet is to go catch it at UW.
Route 30 running out of Kitchener GO and Charles Terminal is also a good idea, and it's also the fastest way to Union (via train from Bramalea GO). However not all trips are done by double deckers.
Best way to check which trips have double deckers is via the GTFS feed: https://transitfeeds.com/p/go-transit/32/latest/routes
Select a route and then select a date to travel. Then, click on a certain trip and check the Block ID. ID numbers starting with DDL (double decker low) or DDS (double decker SuperLo) are designated double decker trips.
