subject: Coach Hire Has Moved Into The World Of Luxury Transportation [print this page] If you need to move more than a handful of people around a city, across the UK, or even across Europe the only truly viable option is coach hire. Not only is hiring a larger vehicle highly cost-effective it also has the added advantage of being far more environmentally friendly than using individual vehicles.
For example a journey from London to Glasgow will mean that each passenger will emit the equivalent of just over 52kg of carbon dioxide, on a flight between the two cities will emit a massive 345kg per person, and even the family car does poorly at around 130kg per passenger.
So obviously coach hire is a far greener option for multi-person transportation, there are of course a wide selection of types of coaches available for hire, the type that you would select would of course depend on the purpose and distance covered by your trip, as well as the type of passengers involved a school group, wedding party or a bachelor night out.
There is also the fact that travelling as a group is far more enjoyable and will often provide far more lasting memories than making your way in individual cars. There is also the fact that modern coach hire has moved on tremendously and now offers a whole range of facilities that were not available even 20 years ago.
Modern bus hire can offer, DVD or satellite television with plasma screens, properly equipped bathrooms, fridges, reading lights, comfortable ergonomic reclining seats, various music facilities, PlayStation's, and tinted windows will keep out any harsh sunlight. Wireless networks will keep you in touch with the Internet, some hire coaches will provide different seating arrangements such as meeting tables or lounge areas.
Other facilities might include in-coach monitors, which many business people would find highly advantageous when making a presentation on the move. If you're trip is little more casual other facilities might include a fully stocked bar.
Safety and efficiency are a high priority, with many coaches tracked by GPS allowing them the possibility of being redirected if weather or traffic situations deteriorate on the road ahead.
Luxury coach hire is also very effective for transporting children as it gives them not only the thrill of moving as a group, but can also offer them a level of comfort and fun not available in the family car, of course they will have access to many facilities they are familiar with such as PlayStations, as well as cartoons and other entertainment options.
For longer journeys of over a day many coaches now offer luxury facilities, such as not only high quality reclining seating but also sleeping quarters and even bathrooms equipped with showers to allow you to arrive at your destination completely relaxed and refreshed.
In short, coach hire companies have responded to the challenges offered by other transport options and are now incredibly well equipped to service every type of customers needs, and also do this at a much lower per head cost than those offered by any other equivalent quality travel option.
