Greyhound Opens Las Vegas-Los Angeles Bus Route



The Dallas-based Greyhound Lines, Inc. announced it is returning to the Las Vegas market starting this week its express bus service to and from Los Angeles. On Wednesday, it launched the new Greyhound Express route between the two cities.


Greyhound Lines, the largest intercity bus service in North America with 3,800 destinations, announced that its Greyhound Express subsidiary will offer five daily express buses to Los Angeles with departures at 5 a.m., 8:40 a.m., 1:30 p.m., 5:10 p.m. and 10:15 p.m. with the return trips leaveing Los Angeles at 12:30 a.m., 8:30 a.m., 12:15 p.m., 3 p.m. and 10:45 p.m.

A typical trip from Las Vegas to Los Angeles usually takes about five hours.

Each bus will have free WiFi and reserved seating. Ticket prices range from $25 to $67.50 one way, with a limited number of discounted tickets offered for $1.

This will be the first scheduled express bus service between Las Vegas and Los Angeles since 2007 when the United Kingdom-based Stagecoach Group offered Megabus service on buses leased from Coach USA. Due to of lack of ridership, that route lasted only 10 months. It ended  in June 2008.
