Significantly cheaper.

A bus trip, depending on when you book it, can set you back less than $50.

The average fare paid by riders at our bus, which is another inner city bus line, was $36 in May.

And that's actually down from last year.

So while other forms of transportation this summer have gotten more expensive, bus travel has either stayed flat or actually gotten cheaper.

100%.

I talked to a woman who, when she was planning a trip up the eastern seaboard, she lives in the Midwest, she chose to go by bus and train because she wanted to see the scenery, especially this summer with a lot of folks sort of celebrating America 250 and things like that.

I think there is this nostalgia factor around taking a bus to see different parts of the country and actually see it along the way.

I totally agree.

So obviously Greyhound is probably what most people are familiar with.

And a lot of these companies are regional.

So that's another factor here.

So like if you're in Florida, you might recognize a company called Red Coach.

If you don't live in the southeast, you're not going to know that company.

And that is definitely a challenge for the bus industry.

I think a lot of people don't think of buses immediately and also have somewhat outdated ideas of what a bus trip is like.

Yeah, these days buses are much more comfortable than they used to be.

Some of them, most of them at this point have Wi-Fi and they're getting more reliable with their Wi-Fi.

Some of them, you know, the more quote-unquote luxury bus lines have amenities like snacks and beverages and things like that, movies, kind of what you might expect from a flight.

I was just going to say, it sounds a little bit like an airplane.
