Why Travel with Your Team by Coach?

Did you know there are several benefits to traveling by coach to your next game or competition?

When you travel by coach, your team travels together.  They leave together, and they arrive together. You choose the location you are picked up and dropped off, with door-to-door service! There are no long lines to wait in, and no worries about lost luggage or gear because they are on the same coach as the team. The trip is focused on you and your team, and no one else!

Imagine your team being well-rested and ready to go by the time you get to your destination.  Traveling by coach is one of the most comfortable ways to go!  With luxurious interiors, reclining seats, and plenty of leg room, your team can kick back and enjoy the ride. No need to fight over arm rest space with strangers either!

The team has access to all the comforts of home with wi-fi, phone chargers, a bathroom on board, and room to get up and stretch their legs when needed.  The coach is air conditioned in the summer and well-heated in the winter, with several air exchanges throughout the trip, even more than required by law, which also makes this a healthy way to travel!

If the coach wants to have a meeting or strategize with the team on the drive, we have microphones and overhead screens that can be used to show videos.  Players can snack or eat on the bus while watching game videos or studying for classes and arrive well-nourished and hydrated.

Traveling by coach is effortless.  The bus driver takes care of knowing when and where to stop, so there are no worries about navigating in rush hour traffic or unfamiliar places.  Often, they are familiar with the area being traveled to, and if not, they will map it all out prior to leaving.  Our drivers are top notch and some of the best in the business.  They are helpful, professional, and will go the extra mile to make sure your trip is successful.

You would also be traveling on one of the most eco-friendly modes of transportation. If you are concerned with the environment, traveling by coach is one of the most green ways to go!  Statistics report that coaches provide 207 passenger miles per gallon of fuel and reduces the carbon footprint significantly. It is one vehicle carrying up to 50 passengers!  That is a lot of cars removed from the road!  You can be confident that you are choosing a sustainable and environmentally friendly mode of travel, when completing your journey by coach.

One of the most important reasons to travel by coach, is it is one of the safest ways to travel! Our coach drivers receive on-going training, meet rigorous CPC requirements, and pass RSA required physicals to ensure they are in good health. The coaches receive a great deal of attention and have regular preventative maintenance completed, while also meeting strict safety standards. Our drivers complete thorough pre- and post- trips every day, ensuring the coach is ready to go. Coach companies are also regulated by the RSA , a division of the Department of Transportation. The RSA performs inspections of coach companies’ driver logbooks, their vehicles, drug testing policies, drivers’ records, and accidents, then they assign a safety rating.  When you travel with Express Bus , you are traveling with one of the safest coach carriers in the country.  Our safety ratings are one of the highest in the country.

So, when you are looking for a transportation provider for your next team trip, you can feel confident that chartering a coach is one of the easiest, most comfortable, safest, and green ways to travel!
