When I moved to the big city, buying a car seemed like a waste of money. The subway takes me anywhere I want to go, and there are always cabs as a backup. When I do want to get out of the city for a weekend, I arrange for a car rental. Rentals are great for me. I get to choose the type of vehicle that I want, buy insurance to cover the trip, and concentrate on enjoying myself. If the car develops engine trouble, I call the agency and they pick me up in a replacement. Thanks to my club discounts, I even get price breaks on some of my rentals. If you are new to the idea of renting a car, let me help. I'll show you how to get the best terms, including the lowest price. That'll make for a more pleasant trip.
When you and several of your employees or coworkers need to travel to another state for work, how do you get there? Most companies would just book a flight. However, there is another option you should look into the next time you travel: booking a charter bus. Here are a few advantages of this route.
1. Charter Buses Are Really Comfortable
Even if you fly business class, you have to admit flying is not the most enjoyable experience in the world. You have to stay seated for long periods, there's the stress of worrying that the plane might crash, you have to go through security, and so forth. Taking a charter bus is so much more comfortable. While you will still probably spend a lot of time sitting, you can get up and walk through the bus whenever you want, not just after the pilot says it's safe. There's more space, you can stop for bathroom and food breaks along the way, and you won't have to go through security or have someone look through your personal items before you get on board.
2. Charter Buses Are More Affordable
This is especially the case if you are traveling with quite a few other people. With plane tickets, you pay by the person. With a bus, you pay one fee, and as many people who can fit on the bus can ride. If two extra employees decide to attend at the last minute, your cost won't go up. Usually, if you have six or more people, it ends up being cheaper to book a charter bus than a flight.
3. It's Easier to Chat and Collaborate Along the Way
With the noise of the engine and with the other passengers, it's tough to communicate much on the plane. This ends up being downtime where everyone just reads or watches TV. Since a charter bus makes it easier to move around, and since your team will really be the only ones on board the bus, you can use the ride to collaborate and discuss work-related topics. This way, the time you spend being transported to the destination won't be wasted.
The next time you and your work team need to travel, consider renting a charter bus rather than taking a plane. You'll save money, plus the whole experience will be smoother and more enjoyable. Have a great time, and enjoy the ride!
