Vonlane, the Texas-based premium transportation company, is celebrating the launch of its first daily route service 10 years ago this month, which takes airport- and road-weary travelers between Dallas and Austin.
Since May 2014, Vonlane has expanded to over 500 weekly trips throughout Texas and with additional routes added in 2022 in Tennessee and Georgia.
Passengers can take Vonlane across Texas with arrival and departure points in the state’s biggest cities — Houston, Dallas, San Antonio, Fort Worth, and Austin. Out-of-state travelers enjoy routes through Memphis, Nashville, and Atlanta.
“This is a tremendous moment for all of us here at the company,” said Alex Danza, founder & CEO of Vonlane. “Seeing Vonlane’s growth over the past 10 years has been a great personal joy and a testament to the hard work and dedication we see from our team members day in and day out to provide restful, hassle-free transportation for business and leisure travelers.”
Vonlane’s Impact
In its first 10 years of service, Vonlane has made astonishing achievements:
Total Rides: Over 115,000 trips
Miles Traveled: Over 25 million miles
Passengers Transported: Over 1.1 million passengers
Meals Served: Nearly 900,000 meals
Fuel Saved: Over 500,000 passenger vehicles
Seeking to provide travelers with a better option, Danza started Vonlane to bring something fresh and innovative to the motorcoach industry and a top-tier alternative to those enduring frequent short-haul travel.
Travelers in Texas, Tennessee, and Georgia now have access to a non-stop transportation choice in Vonlane — complete with Vonlane’s signature experience of 22 first-class leather seats; ample workspace; complimentary Wi-Fi; and an on-board attendant offering premium cabin service with snacks, meals, and beverages included. For comparison, a typical same-size motorcoach has 56 seats.
While air travelers experience constant delays and flight cancellations, Vonlane travelers arrive 15 minutes before departure, take their seats, and relax, according to the operation.
