BUS TICKETS
In order to safely travel around the city one of the most reliable services are offered by Greyhound. Greyhound buses are used for Amtrak’s Thruway lines, connecting train stations to areas without rail service. Greyhound makes it simple to purchase tickets, offering options for almost every rider. This year marks Greyhound’s 100th anniversary, but instead of solely looking back, the bus line is in the midst of a makeover it hopes will appeal to the most modern of Millennial travelers. BoltBus is an intercity bus common carrier that operates low cost, non-stop and limited-stop, premium level routes in the northeast and western United States and British Columbia, Canada. In the northeast, BoltBus provides service from New York City and Newark to other cities along the Interstate 95 corridor. BoltBus is owned by Greyhound Lines and routes in the northeast are operated in partnership with Peter Pan Bus Lines. On the west coast, BoltBus service is offered in California, Nevada, Oregon, Washington and British Columbia, Canada. Routes on the West Coast are owned and operated by Greyhound without a partner. Greyhound has been busing Americans around for a century. It’s hard to believe that after all these years, the company is still riding high.
So How Can One Purchase these tickets?
Greyhound offers a variety of purchase options. Tickets are available at bus terminals, online and by phone with a major credit card. Paper tickets are mailed, held for pickup or printed at home. Greyhound agencies in locations without a dedicated bus station, such as bus stops operated by a local business like a hotel, sell tickets. Large bus stations have ticket agents and self-serve kiosks. The 7-Eleven convenience stores in the Dallas/Fort Worth area have a unique arrangement where customers can order a ticket online and pay for it with cash at the store.
