Chartering A Bus For Business Travel

For a group business trip within Rochester, Southern Minnesota

, or even out of state, chartering a bus has many advantages over transporting a group of people using other modes of transportation. Chartering a bus eliminates the time, fuel and financial inefficiencies of having employees driving their own cars. And utilizing a charter bus is definitely less expensive or a hassle than traveling by plane. Here are just a few reasons you should consider traveling by bus for your next business trip:

Fun - If you were to write a list of words that describe air travel, how low down the list would fun be? When traveling by charter bus you get to see local scenery not visible from the air. You're also able to plan stops at local restaurants guaranteed to provide a greater variety of regional taste treats far more appetizing and filling than the miserly bag of peanuts and flavor-challenged cup of coffee airlines offer.

Productivity - One of the first things an airline makes you do is to turn off your electronics such as your tablet, laptop, netbook, phone, and even mp3 player. And when it time to land they make you do it again. You won't ever encounter this hassle on a charter bus. You can run your device as long as your battery lasts.

Economy - With the current economy, many businesses are limiting their travel budgets. However, limiting travel can reduce the one-on-one time you have with customers and hurt business relationships. Traveling by bus usually costs half as much as travel by air and affords you and your employees greater time efficiency and productivity.

Environment - Bus travel leaves a smaller carbon footprint than traveling by automobile. According to the American Bus Association, buses offer 206.6 passenger miles per gallon (MPG). In comparison, single passenger automobiles have a passenger MPG of 27.2. In fact, one charter bus can remove 55 automobiles from the road.

Business needs - Imagine you are traveling by air and wish to conduct an in-route briefing with your business team. You ask the flight attendant if you can get some folks to switch seats and borrow the planes PA system for 10 minutes. What do you think the answer would be? If you charter a bus you can use the on board PA system to lead a meeting and, because there is no assigned seating, employees can easily swap seats and convene into groups if and when needed.

Convenience - Chartering a bus provides quick and efficient portal-to-portal transportation other forms of commercial travel cannot. Unlike a plane, your charter bus will drive you directly from your place of business to the hotel at your destination. Chartering a bus eliminates finding or paying for parking at the airport, and when you reach your destination, you don't have to rent a car. Your charter bus will also provide transportation from the hotel to wherever your team needs to go such as the local convention center, restaurant, or business complex to attend meetings and seminars.

Safety - Its forty-six times safer to travel by charter bus than it is to use a private automobile. And it is more than twice as safe to charter a bus as it is to fly a commercial or private jetliner.

Privacy - If you are carrying confidential business papers, do you want a TSA agent rifling through your carry-on or digging through your briefcase? Do you want your laptop with its valuable data going through an x-ray machine? In addition, the TSA might search your body or observe you through a backscatter machine (think naked scanner). When you charter a bus, you have no such privacy violations.

So give it some serious thought - the next time you plan a business trip, consider chartering a bus instead of flying or driving. It will pay-off not only in the money you save, but also in the convenience that an airline cannot offer.
