]]> It’s no secret that you should always arrive early for your flights, but most people aren’t as punctual when it comes to their bus rides. There’s a common misconception that buses are always late, but arriving just a couple of minutes early comes with a long list of benefits.

Seat Choice

If you didn’t get an assigned seat when you bought your ticket, getting there early can make or break your bus ride. Always make sure that you arrive at least 15 minutes before the bus so you can pick the seat that suits you and makes your ride more comfortable.

Getting Comfy

Speaking of making your ride more comfortable, this is much easier to do when you’re there early. You can take everything you need out of your bag and get cozy for your ride without disturbing other passengers.

Sign of Respect

Arriving for your ride a minute before your bus is supposed to leave is very disrespectful towards the driver and your fellow passengers. You’ll need extra time to put your bags inside the luggage compartment, find a seat, and get comfortable, potentially delaying the bus ride for everyone on board.

]]> Long before low-cost flights and super fast trains, were bus trips. For any long-distance trip, you had the option to board a coach. Nowadays it’s mostly a budget choice to take the coach, but it doesn’t have to feel cheap simply because it is cheap.

Organize

The keyword idea is to make it accessible. While your large luggage or backpack would go in the bottom storage, you’ll probably bring a smaller bag with you. Even within that, make sure to separate into a tote bag some necessities like your water bottle, phone charger, and maybe a snack, to allow for quick access. Keep the tote with you, keep your wallet in it as well so you can easily take it with you when there is a break.

Be Cozy

Just like in flights, you have limited control over the temperature and light during your trip. Be prepared with a large scarf you can use as a blanket, a beany that can cover your eyes, and weak layers you can peel off if it suddenly becomes too warm.

Keep Your Hygiene

Bring with you several types of tissue paper. Napkins for your food, sterile wipes for the bathroom, and facial tissues to wipe your face or your nose if the air conditioning becomes too intense.

]]> Buses are a great mode of transportation within cities and on longer routes instead of planes. Not only are they a lot more eco-friendly by putting out less CO2 into the air, but they’re usually significantly cheaper than flying.

However, the catch is that they usually take much longer since you’re physically driving and making stops. But, if you have an upcoming bus trip and you’re worried about whether you’ll make it out alive or not, follow this guide!

Activities

If you’re going to be on a bus for several hours, you need to bring lots of things to do. Think books, Netflix, podcasts, and anything else that can occupy your mind for multiple hours.

Snacks

It’s vital that you bring your own snacks and water with you since you might not be stopping long enough for you to leave the bus and buy something. Even if it does stop, you don’t want to use that time waiting on line at a gas station McDonald’s.

Exercise

When you do make stops, make sure you get off the bus every time. Not only is it vital to get the fresh air, but you should do some exercises like jumping jacks or at least stretches to keep the blood flowing.
