I'm a greyhound driver, and sure enough, Atlanta to Nashville is my regular route! Our buses are nothing like this, and definitely no bus attendant (😅). However, I try to make up for all that with smooth driving. 😂
@@BabyBang17datruth I’m pretty sure it’s the schedules that go to New York that are the longest distance wise that come out of Atlanta. The furthest going West I believe is the Houston TX routes. Northwest I think is Chicago. I wouldn’t know for sure with all the breaks and layovers how long they’ll be time wise 😅.
Being from Texas I have used VonLane several times. Never had a bad experience. While not private jet they try hard and it’s a great product and a great value.
I never considered bus travel a viable option in the USA because of the horrors of Greyhound, but something like this I might be willing to do. At the same time, even the lowliest general aviation aircraft can do this route in about an hour, so 4 hours vs. 1 hour... I'll take 1 hour.
@@grayrabbit2211 Thing is, it isn't really one hour. I used to live in central Austin. It was a 15-minute bus ride to the MegaBus pick-up, then ~3 hours to the Dallas bus station (which is literally next door to the hotel where I sometimes stay in Dallas). Compare this to a 45-minute ride to the airport, at which I need to arrive early, the flight, and then taking a cab or shuttle to downtown Dallas. I'd much rather take the bus if I'm going downtown to downtown.
My cousin used to live in Houston and chose Vonlane each time he had to make Dallas and Fort Worth meetings. Traveling from downtown to downtown beats the hell out of airport-to-airport.
I am an avid user of coaches as i live in the uk, it cost me around $5 to take me almost half the length of the country and the coaches are so good there are hardly ever delays, the drivers are always friendly and I would definitely recommend doing a review of them. They even do routes between countries. For example you can go from london to Paris for less than $50.
I see these interviews with struggling people in the UK and the bus fare for their daily commute is 5 pounds (that's a quote, yep literally 5 pounds, 5 of their currency) - which seems ridiculous and criminal for a commute that is walkable (like an hour and half, but "technically" walkable distance, and sometimes they have to walk the 1.5 hours) How can the long haul buses cost less than a commuter route? that's doubly insane.
@@Xxxypher I've taken a bus from London to Birmingham for £5 and then Birmingham to Leeds and Leeds to Edinburgh for a total of £20 or so. Not four pounds, but still incredibly inexpensive.
I'm a Houston-Dallas attendant, and your review was very thorough and solid! Loved it. I gotta point out though, if you ever experience slow internet speeds, simply let your attendant know and they'll quickly work to troubleshoot it and get it to its normal blazing speeds right away!
Thanks Jeb! 40 minute flight---And TSA is always an easy hurdle? Check in is easier, but we allow at least 1.5 hours to check in for a domestic flight. It's usually at least a ½ hour to exit after landing if you get quick gate...I'd say the bus just might be a competitive option.
At some airports like the new LGA B gates, its a 10-15 minute walk from the farthest B gates to baggage claim and somehow you still have to wait for your bags.
And if high speed rail catches on then it could even be faster than flying (depending on what your end destination is because nobody ends their trip at an airport)
We should enjoy our great and beautiful country in this way. With US airlines becoming so militant in their service, I'd spend the extra time loving what America has to show at ground level.
This reminds me of my greyhound days as a bus cleaner I would enjoy some of the newer buses. Many weren't like this but some were nice. These machines are wonderfully created and serve a purpose. Nice vid.
I rode the Vonlane yesterday from Austin to Dallas. 3:15 hours. It was great because I slept most of the way. The drivers and attendants are excellent. My 5th time on Vonlane, usually from Houston to Austin. I live overseas and visit Texas a few times annually. I used to rent a car when I landed in Houston, but since I discovered Vonlane I no longer rent, but instead Uber from the Houston airport to the downtown Hyatt to catch the Vonlane. Great business model and onboard product. They have my future travel business! Hope they continue to expand.
I feel like you're always just around the corner lol. As someone who has lived in Nashville and Atlanta, it's so nice to have bus service between the two! All the familiar sights on this drive haha I've considered taking this bus once I found out about it! Thanks for the review!
That looks amazing. Sitting in a comfortable bus seat, watching the world go by, is a lovely experience, even without service or an on-board bathroom. And $99 USD is a good value. I'd definitely consider this for a short break if I found myself working in the region.
Doing the math, a 40 minute flight really means the drive to the airport, getting to the airport 90 minutes early, your 40-minute flight, plus getting off the plane and navigating your way out, getting your bags and finding your ride to get you to your destination (I once waited almost 30+ minutes for an Uber in LGA plus traffic into Manhattan took another hour). It's very close to that 4-5 hours on a bus, but you're getting food and drinks.
Not to mention airports where it's you need to either walk a long distance from the gates (Farthest B gates to rideshare at LGA is a 15 minute walk) or wait and ride a tram (DFW, ATL come to mind)
I've flown several times in corporate jets for two different companies I worked for in the past. In both cases, the pilot and co-pilot brought big food trays on board. They showed us where they were in a cold drawer and we helped ourselves...and guess what, mostly cold wraps and sandwiches! However, on corporate jets, there's always booze and often plenty of it, as well as soft drinks. However, it can be impossible or difficult to stand up straight on a corporate jet. Looks like that's no problem on the bus. Nice job as usual Jeb. Thanks.
Jeb I had the enjoyment of taking a Greyhound from New York Penn Station to Raleigh NC and as bad as I thought it was going to be , it was NOT. Relaxing watching the world go by out the windows, meeting some awesome people , who I still talk to and overall an experience like no other. Living here in NC is great and maybe I will take a trip back up North on another Greyhound to see how it goes.
Had no idea of Vonlane....how awesome is that!! Might have to consider them for my next trips to Houston and Austin from Dallas. I really hate Austin/Houston traffic!! Very cool Jeb!!
It's not a bad trip from Houston to Dallas, but the ticket is generally $99. Greyhound tickets for the same route is around $25, and you can sometimes get Megabus tickets for that route for as low as $12. It seems like an enjoyable experience, but I don't know if I'd be willing to pay 9 times more than a Megabus ticket for 4 hours on a bus.
I used Vonlane to travel from San Antonio to Houston late December last year, and I've already booked the same route for this year. $109 one way. I think it was the same price last year. Anyway, the previous experience was well worth the expense (compared to greyhound or driving that distant alone). Last December in San Antonio was super windy and very cold, and I waited to board the bus outside and it was a miserable experience. I learned, after the fact, that vonlane customers are allowed to wait inside the lobby of the sponsoring hotel. So, dont make the same mistake I made by standing next to the bus, in the freezing weather, waiting to board the bus.
I have been on multiple buses like this for hockey and they are pretty cool. It's amazing to be able to go to the bathroom on a bus. The only difference is the seats aren't as fancy as that and there are no snacks being served. There is also often charging ports on the bus.
I have taken VonLane between San Antonio to Houston many times - it is a simple alternative to driving or flying, and it is a great experience for the quick 3hr journey.
I'm loving their service. The "private jet" almost put me off, but compared to a plane, no queues. Always from convenient locations, comfy, pleasant staff, whenver available defo better choice than short flights.
Jeb, would love to see a comparison on total travel time if you were to take a plane from the same starting point to the same ending point. Bonus points if you take Southwest!
Nice to see you ride passed my neck of the woods... when walking my dogs I get to point where there is a wide open area of sky that I can watch planes leaving ATL, those coming in, those going over and beyond and more local private jet flights ... I can time my walks based on the Delta flight from ATL to Nashville.. never understood that flight as you could have driven there by the time you got through all the airport hub-bub
Downtown Nashville to downtown Atlanta via air and road is pretty much a wash. We did a “race” a few years ago leaving our office at the same time, one driving, the other heading to BNA via ride share. We arrived at the downtown Atlanta hotel within minutes of one another. I’d probably still fly but a luxury-ish coach is something I’ll definitely try.
Plus this departs a Buckhead hotel, so access from office park suburbs like Dunwoody, Alpharetta, Roswell, Marietta, etc on the north side is far superior to slugging all the way down to Spaghetti Junction or worse, through everything to the airport/parking for your 1 to 2 hr TSA recommended pre flight wait. I'm assuming parking at the Buckhead hotel is in garage or adjacent so arrival in car or uber 15 minutes before boarding is possible. It is a good option for the North side of Atl metro business trip to Nashville, then using Uber or hotel shuttle to meetings.
Wish I could be you: a cool traveler. I only do big trips once every year. You're so lucky you can travel almost all the time. Keep up the good videos!
Thank you for the video Atlanta to Nashville I think the bus is really wonderful treasure to travel and not be stressed out about traveling. I like seeing the seats, windows snacks, beverage,wifi has a restroom wow really cool way to travel. David Sanders
I dunno that I'd say private jet but certainly business or 1st class domestic with none of the hassle of an airport/plane with dumpy wifi, certainly a win in my book. Just think 4 hours door to door ATL to BNA. Otherwise, 30 minute drive to airport, 30 minutes through security and to the gate, 25 minutes waiting to board, 25 minutes boarding and pushing back (assuming ZERO delay), 40 minutes flight, 15 minute taxi/disembarking at best, 15 minutes getting out of the airport, 15 minute uber wait, 20 minute drive BNA to downtown (I lived there and that's generous). So 215 minutes or 3.5 hours, meaning at WORST it's a half hour longer on the bus with zero of the hassle. Bus for me Love your work Jeb!
I took Vonlane from Houston to Dallas on Dec 31, 2019, and back home from Dallas to Houston on Jan 4, 2020. I really have to say that they gave me an awesome first impression. The attendant was awesome! She kept on checking with us passengers every 30 minutes or so to see if we need anything. I, too, raided the snack basket more than once. 😃
@@bellaapple2166 I just realize that might be thinking of the flight. If you are, then yes, it takes about an hour to fly from Houston to Dallas, and vice versa. But, if you take in account of driving to the airport, checking in, going through security, and then boarding and flying, you're already halfway to Dallas via Vonlane.
Looks like a good option for people who don't like to fly. Hopefully they'll expand a bit and offer routes from Atlanta to Tampa and similar. Certainly worth considering.
I would take this any day of the week! I don't know (nor do MOST people) how this compares, or doesn't, to a private jet or first class air (I've never been on a private jet or flown first class because I don't have that kind of money to waste on getting from point a to point b) but I can see it beats greyhound (which I have taken) and that I will never ever get on an airplane again. Looks wonderful to me.
That price makes me fairly envious, I have to take a 4-5 hour bus from Cornell to NYC when I go home for break and it can cost almost 80$ one way for just a regular crammed seat
I recently experienced a similar option with a similar bus design. I found that seating away from the front, all you see in front of you is a massive backrest. Looking thru the window closest to you is almost useless because of the reflective nature of the glass.
I would definitely (price dependent) prefer this over flying short distances. Much less hassle. I was on a regular greyhound bus between these cities in Australia a few months ago and it wasn’t very exciting, and the lady behind us was letting out these eye-watering farts the entire time. Bit of a step up from that!
I live in Georgia and I can make that run in 4hours too with more privacy and fun and less expense in my vehicle😄. But this is a nice option when you want to leave the driving to someone else
A 90 minute flight still takes 4 hours with drop-off/parking, check-in, security, waiting for bags. This looks quite reasonable; a first class experience for coach pricing.
Maybe not "privat yet standard" but surely much better then economy class inside any airplane. And no stress checking in at airports. Good and comfortable buslines have a great potential on distances below 350 miles distance as competition to airlines.
I hope they expand to California. Bus service between major cities would help reduce interstate traffic. More trains and buses means more people traveling without congested highways.
Jeb did you know you look almost like the CEO and Founder of Vonlane he's a bit more classy but you could be his brother by appearances. Great review very accurate except the WiFi which is normally fast! In Texas Vonlane is the best least expensive luxury way to travel. The service is top shelf and Drivers are the safest, most experienced on the road because drivers are the highest paid drivers in the country!
It's amusing how much they're hyping this bus up, whereas Hanover, NH - New York City offers the same bus service for cheaper - just without a meal service. Still has food and drinks on board and same seating arrangement.
Very nice service. However, currently the fares between Atlanta and Nashville are $135 each way. While you do get a lot for that amount, it still seems kind’a high for a bus. Booked out two weeks in advance, Greyhound is around $30 and about the same travel time. Seems to me a fair price for the Vonlane would be about $85.
I'm a greyhound driver, and sure enough, Atlanta to Nashville is my regular route! Our buses are nothing like this, and definitely no bus attendant (😅). However, I try to make up for all that with smooth driving. 😂
What’s furthest route Greyhound offers from Atlanta?

It's a viable option for a short route like this, but "private jet experience" is an extremely generous description.
i think paid presetation
Comfort of seats?
Jeb is an extremely generous guy
@@suzslate Domestic 1st class on a 737 has comfortable seats, too. But that doesn't make it a private jet.
Less likely to die on the bus, so that's a plus

Same here. I used it from Austin to Fort Worth. It was a great experience

I would definitely (price dependent) prefer this over flying short distances. Much less hassle. I was on a regular greyhound bus between these cities in Australia a few months ago and it wasn’t very exciting, and the lady behind us was letting out these eye-watering farts the entire time. Bit of a step up from that!
5:00 Jeb’s in my hometown Chattanooga 💯
I live in Georgia and I can make that run in 4hours too with more privacy and fun and less expense in my vehicle😄. But this is a nice option when you want to leave the driving to someone else
Chattanooga, my hometown!
Lovely video! This service my not be for me (maybe, lol) ; but it is certainly a great, pleasant alternative for those who may not like to fly.
Wow! I will be trying this out son Nashville to Atlanta.
They need this in the north east
A 90 minute flight still takes 4 hours with drop-off/parking, check-in, security, waiting for bags. This looks quite reasonable; a first class experience for coach pricing.
I never miss his videos ever since I subscribed !!!
Jeb's like, Excuse me, but I'm sitting here, I'm sitting here! In Ratso's voice from Midnight Cowboy..😅
I love Georgia and Tennessee
great video at 4:06 I thought you had rolled a Doubie 🤔
I felt like I was traveling. Thank you for the wonderful video😍Japanese buses are also evolving, so please come and ride someday！
I used ADO Platino in Mexico. It is very similar and saved me a night in a hotel between Oaxaca and Mexico City.
Maybe not "privat yet standard" but surely much better then economy class inside any airplane. And no stress checking in at airports. Good and comfortable buslines have a great potential on distances below 350 miles distance as competition to airlines.
When I first heard "Lap Desk" I DEFINITELY thought it was going to be a different kind of lap service entirely haha. Awesome video!
Nice 👍👍👍
Finally!
Jeb another flight without a plane !
Looks like a lot of fun
I wish they had an AA bus from Columbia SC to Charlotte NC ..
It's a 90 mile drive and it would be nice to eliminate that little commuter flight.
I have seen ads for this around Dallas. I want to try it for myself.
Love this- I live in the greater Nashville area and have always been curious about Vonlane after seeing their billboards on I-24
I always look forward to your videos.
Glad you like them!
in anywhere outside US they do it by train service
I hope they expand to California. Bus service between major cities would help reduce interstate traffic.
More trains and buses means more people traveling without congested highways.
I stayed at the Grand Hyatt last time I was in Atlanta. Real nice hotel with a great location
Bring more bus tour in USA whether in big city or small town waiting
Jeb did you know you look almost like the CEO and Founder of Vonlane he's a bit more classy but you could be his brother by appearances. Great review very accurate except the WiFi which is normally fast! In Texas Vonlane is the best least expensive luxury way to travel. The service is top shelf and Drivers are the safest, most experienced on the road because drivers are the highest paid drivers in the country!
Thanks for this vlog. Wow. Travel safe. Ciao.
It's amusing how much they're hyping this bus up, whereas Hanover, NH - New York City offers the same bus service for cheaper - just without a meal service. Still has food and drinks on board and same seating arrangement.
No stop at Buckees? Looks like civilized trip from Atlanta to Nashville.
Very nice service. However, currently the fares between Atlanta and Nashville are $135 each way. While you do get a lot for that amount, it still seems kind’a high for a bus. Booked out two weeks in advance, Greyhound is around $30 and about the same travel time. Seems to me a fair price for the Vonlane would be about $85.
