Global ground transportation booking platform Busbud is partnering with Megabus to increase access to bus travel throughout the U.S. and Canada.
What the Move Means
Megabus' more than 500 cities served will now be available to reserve through Busbud's convenient booking platform for a seamless travel transportation experience. This includes Megabus' most popular routes, such as Houston to San Antonio, Atlanta to Charlotte, Washington DC to Baltimore, and Philadelphia to Pittsburgh, among many other options.
"We are excited to expand access to our routes through our partnership with Busbud," said Colin Emberson, VP, commercial, for Megabus. "This partnership will allow us to offer our customers another avenue to purchase their bus tickets."
Traveling by bus is not only a more affordable option for travelers but also significantly more eco-friendly. A recent analysis comparing bus and flight made by Busbud found that many popular routes reduced each traveler's carbon footprint by at least 80% when compared to flying.
In addition, travelers can often save more than 90% when compared to flying.
