A Bus Service That Values You and Your Time – OurBus

Growing up, my dad always told me “Never Settle”. He would say “Never settle for average when you know you deserve the best, never settle for familiar distress when a little change could bring greater comfort”. I often found myself seeking the inconvenience of the known, rather than looking for the pleasure of the unknown.

Just like many others, my everyday commute required more time and energy than my work itself. If this being longest commute in the country wasn’t bad enough, the unpredictable delays have made it unbearable. The need for a simpler journey became crystal clear last year after I commuted for four hours to work for five hours in Manhattan.

Like they say, each cloud has a silver lining, a friend recommended OurBus, a technology start-up that provides direct point-to-point commuter bus service in New York City to Washington DC. OurBus brought the much-needed relief in my daily commute, their proprietary algorithms creates pickup and drop-off stops just steps away from my location. OurBus’ customized bus service not only reduced my commute time to half but also cut my cost by almost 50%. My dreaded tiring commute of driving to the station, switching trains, and walking blocks to get to my office has been swapped for a much simpler and comfortable one.

Throughout my developmental years, punctuality was given utmost priority, I grew up valuing my time and of those around me. OurBus offers me just what I need – an assurance of being on time. The team is committed to running their buses on schedule each day, at all times. With OurBus, I don’t have to stand outside waiting as I can track my ride in real-time and receive notifications on the precise arrival time of the bus. The bus service even allows one to share their ETA with their loved ones while maintaining the privacy of user data.

The luxury motorcoaches have improved my everyday life, beyond what we can imagine a bus service too. I go through my work emails, watch the latest shows, read my magazines, and even catch up on some sleep in plush reclining seats of OurBus coaches. The buses are equipped with individual charging ports, complimentary Wi-Fi, and onboard restrooms which truly do make the ride an exceptional one. The OurBus App is an added convenience for its users, one can book their tickets, buy share pass, and get great discounts. Washington To NYC tickets

What I have realized is that in life it’s the little things we do, and the small decision we make which ultimately either increase our happiness by many folds or add to our stress.

Making Long Distance Bus Journeys Pleasant - OurBus Prime

An intercity bus journey has rarely created enthusiasm in the hearts of travelers. After all cramped and uncomfortable seating, lack of restroom facility, rude staff, and complete disconnect from the world is not how most people would like to spend 4 to 5 hours. Not to forget the unpredictable delays which often throws off the traveller's schedule.

But what if we tell you that long bus rides could be fun too! Jaw drop, anyone?
Each bus journey you take means more time for yourself, you have 4 whole hours to relax and unwind. Here are 4 ways for those who need a little creativity to enjoy their trip to the fullest.

Naptime Wonders.
I often wonder, why I hated naptime as a child, the older and somewhat wiser me jumps at every chance to snooze. Whether you are a university student, working professional, or well, a parent, more sleep is surely on your wish list. OurBus coaches have been designed keeping in mind the comforts one needs for a good sleep while on the move. The bus seats are plush and adjustable to provide the necessary lumbar support to the user. On a bus journey, while napping one often wakes up with a neck sprain, OurBus has taken care of this by installing flexible headrest. New Brunswick to DC

Time to get Reading.
When was the last time you read the morning newspaper to your satisfaction? Have you read the latest novel you bought enthusiastically or is it still sitting on your bedside table? When asked about our hobbies, many of us respond with an intellectual answer - reading, and realize with a dismal sigh that we hardly read for pleasure, anymore. In the midst of tight work schedules and never ending chores, a long journey offers relaxed reading time. Fortunately, for bookworms like me, OurBus coaches are installed with headboard reading lights, enabling users to enjoy their books without disturbing their fellow passengers.

Hobby Lobby.
Growing up, most of us had one or more hobbies - some would collect stamps, some would design jewelry, and some would play sports. As we grew up, not only did our hobbies change but sadly we also lost time for them. No matter how old you get, doing things you love never fails to bring a smile on your face. With spacious seating, charging ports, and Wi-Fi, OurBus is helping adults connect with their inner child. So, whether it’s playing video games on your laptop, watching movies on your iPad, or embroidering on silk napkins, that you enjoy a comfortable long distance ride is perfect for it.

Make New Friends, Keep the Old
John Lennon had once said “Count your age by friends, not years. Count your life by smiles, not tears.” Everybody has a fascinating story to tell, all we need to do is lend them an ear. Bus journeys are a great platform to make new friends, and what would be better than Wi-Fi enabled OurBus coaches. You can sit back in the cool air and talk away the miles with your new friend, add them on Facebook, and tag them in your photos. But don’t forget your loyal old friends who wait for you to return from your trip, share your Expected Time of Arrival(ETA) and let them know that you have been thinking of them.

If you have the right travel companion, long distant journeys can be both comfortable and fun. Here at OurBus, we don’t just take you from one city to another, we create a safe space where you can let go of all your worries and enjoy the journey called life.
