“We are excited to launch the first long-distance virtual reality bus experience, in cooperation with Inflight VR and Pico Interactive,” said FlixBus USA Managing Director Pierre Gourdain.
Travelers simply add a seat reservation for panoramic seats on these routes; the virtual reality reservation will be displayed during the booking process. Once on board, passengers will receive a Pico Goblin 2 virtual reality headset loaded with Inflight VR content. And instruction manual will be provided to each passenger with a headset.
FlixBus launched in the U.S. in May with routes across California, Arizona, and Nevada and has since strived to win the hearts of the American audience by providing a new approach to long-distance bus travel with a modern, comfortable, and entertaining on-board experience.
