💡use 'get on' for everyday buses; 'aboard' sounds odd or overly formal with city buses unless announced by staff.

💡no preposition needed after aboard when the vehicle follows.

He hit the ball and reached base.
💡'aboard' describes the resulting state of being on a base, not the act of running there.
