Zooming in
The daily charter bus routes aim to provide alternatives to driving, air and rail travel, while serving as a sustainable travel option, a company spokesperson said. Each bus is equipped with reclining seats, Wi-Fi and onboard restrooms.
The spokesperson said the new routes include key stops along the Texas triangle region including Dallas-Fort Worth, Houston, Austin, San Antonio and Corpus Christi as well as stops along the way such as:
- The Woodlands
- Katy
- San Marcos
- Temple
- Waco
Riders will be able to book routes through a mobile app with rides beginning at $10 for short haul routes and will go up in price depending on the distance traveled, the company spokesperson said.
Remember this?
Megabus, a nationwide bus service, discontinued its Texas routes in Dallas, Austin, Houston and San Antonio last August after filing for Chapter 11 bankruptcy, Community Impact reported.
The company cited challenges in ridership and industry demand after the COVID-19 pandemic.
Looking ahead
Houston area routes are set to be running by this summer, the company spokesperson said.
