the luxury motor coach.
They're trying to get away from the term bus because they see their options as kind of similar to a first class experience on a flight.
On those buses, they have attendants come around and feed you snacks and meals like if you were on a plane.
And they have extra neck pillows and extra phone chargers.
It's this whole luxury high-end experience that you really don't usually associate with bus travel.
So there's an emphasis on comfort.
Absolutely, yes.
And there's an emphasis on comfort and the experience overall, not just getting from point A to point B.
People, once they started to experience or once they started to travel again after the pandemic, kind of their first point of contact with the travel industry was the airport and the airlines.
According to analysts and industry experts that I spoke to, a lot of people are switching from travel.
airlines and air travel to bus travel at the outset of their trips and not just as a plan B when something goes wrong at the airport.
That's one big reason, right?
They don't want to even have the potential for their flights to get disrupted or delayed.
But another big reason is also for cost.
People often think about kind of the Greyhounds and the Flix buses where you could buy a ticket for less than $100 and go, you know, a far distance.
It depends.
On a long bus trip like cross-country or going through multiple states, taking the bus, it takes a lot longer than taking the train.
Sometimes there are transfers and it could be overnight or even as up to 24 hours or something like that.
But for these short trips, for example, from Austin to Houston,
Or Nashville to Charlotte.
