The Sky Steward:"As much as I love flying, I was intrigued when the Tripper Bus started service between New York and Washington. They are doing it right; with wireless internet and power outlets so that you can surf the web from D.C. to NYC and stay productive for the entire 4 hour trip. The best part is that you won't have to power your devices 'off' for take off and landing!!!!
It would be nice to have a bus attendant on here though (cocktails maybe), don't you agree?
Would I give up my airline seat for a seat on the 'hound'? Well consider the extra time that is normally required for airline travel in order to go through security, for transportation to and from the airport, and add a few minutes for the ever present airport delay (especially for LaGuardia). I think the Tripper Bus is worth a try. I will report back after I take my ride! If anyone uses the service before me, please report your experience.
Fares:
The Tripper Bus $1-$25
Amtrak $72-$198
US Airway Shuttle $129-$329
