The big picture
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 previously said.
The spokesperson said the new routes include stops along the Texas triangle region, including Dallas-Fort Worth, Houston, Austin, San Antonio and Corpus Christi.
Company officials announced the three Houston-area stops include:
- Courtyard Houston Katy Mills: 25402 Katy Mills Parkway, Katy
- Marriott Marquis Houston: 1777 Walker St., Houston
- The Woodlands Waterway Marriott Hotel and Convention Center: 1601 Lake Robbins Drive, The Woodlands
“It’s really just to enhance connectivity throughout the region [by] leveraging these larger cities as our hubs and trying to extend outwards,” the company spokesperson said.
Riders will be able to book routes through a mobile app with rides beginning at $10 and will go up in price depending on the distance traveled, the company spokesperson said. Each bus is equipped with reclining seats, Wi-Fi and onboard restrooms.
Looking ahead
Houston-area routes are set to be running by mid-summer, the company spokesperson said.
