We all know how stressful it is to travel during the holidays especially by plane. You never know what can happen. Your luggage can be lost, huge masses of passengers rushing to their gates, flights cancelled or delayed, and tight spaces on the flight. However, if you are traveling somewhere close by traveling by bus may be the perfect alternative. Below we have listed some of the benefits when you decide to travel by bus during the busy holiday seasons.
1. Constantly Changing Views
On a plane, you usually just see the same thing: sky and clouds. Most of the time, you are required to have the windows down so you have no view at all. But that’s not the case when traveling by a bus. When traveling on the ground you can see cities, mountains, oceans, towns, deserts, and countrysides as you make your way to your destination. What’s even better is you are not required to have the shades down and can have an amazing view throughout your entire destination.
2. Avoid Cancellations and Delays
One of the main challenges people face when traveling during the holidays is the unpredictable weather. Since planes cannot fly during any kind of dangerous conditions, buses are more likely to drive through slightly poor conditions. However, that does not mean that buses will operate in conditions that will harm passengers or put them at risk, but there are usually fewer delays and cancellations compared to plans.
3. Environmentally-Friendly
Compared to other forms of transportation, motorcoaches are known to emit the least carbon dioxide per passenger mile. On the other hand, airplanes use a tremendous amount of jet fuel and if you are only traveling a short distance that jet fuel is just a waste. That’s why traveling by motorcoaches is more environmentally friendly and budget-friendly as you don’t have to pay for gas multiple times.
