Luxury Bus Travel Redefined

For a long time, “bus travel” and “luxury” were two words you rarely heard in the same sentence. Most people picture cramped seats, limited legroom, and zero personal space. But the travel landscape is changing.

If you are looking for a luxury bus company that rivals the comfort of business class flights without the airport stress, RedCoach is redefining the journey. We focus on three main things: real physical comfort, amenities to keep you productive, and honest, simple policies.

What Makes RedCoach Seating Different?

True luxury is measured in space. Unlike standard bus lines that pack as many seats as possible into a coach, we engineered our fleet with fewer seats to guarantee you have the personal space you deserve.

We offer three distinct classes of service, but our First Class is the gold standard for ground travel.

  1. Extra-Wide Seats: Our First Class seats are 21 inches wide. To put that in perspective, a standard Greyhound seat is typically only 18 inches wide. That extra width means you aren’t bumping elbows with your neighbor.
  2. Incredible Recline: You can recline your seat up to 140 degrees. This allows for a peaceful nap or a truly relaxed position to watch a movie, something standard buses just can’t offer.
  3. Solo Seating: If you are traveling alone and want privacy, our First Class cabins feature single seats so you don’t have to sit next to anyone at all.

Even our Business Class (18-inch width) and Premium Economy (16-inch width) offer that same 140-degree recline and extra legroom with footrests. And these are no ordinary bus seats – they’re leather covered, gel foam cushioning, offering ultimate comfort far exceeding the industry standard.

How Can I Stay Productive on the Road?

For business travelers and students, travel time usually feels like “dead time”. We transform it into usable time.

Every single seat in every class comes with free 5G Wi-Fi and a dedicated 110V power outlet. You can keep your laptop charged and your connection strong, whether you are finishing a presentation or streaming your favorite show.

We also equip our coaches with laptop tables and onboard restrooms. This eliminates the need for frequent, time-wasting stops, letting you work uninterrupted and arrive at your destination refreshed.

Are There Hidden Fees I Should Worry About?

One of the most stressful parts of modern travel is “fee anxiety”. Airlines and other bus lines often lure you in with a low ticket price, only to hit you with fees for bags and seat selection later.

RedCoach removes this friction with an all-inclusive approach:

  1. Free Baggage: Unlike Greyhound, which charges $15 for a second checked bag (plus potential $35–$45 fees for oversized items), RedCoach includes two checked bags up to 50 lbs., along with one carry-on free with all tickets.
  2. Free Seat Selection: You can choose your specific seat when you book, avoiding the “awkward game” of scrambling for a good spot when you board.
  3. Free Location Tracking: Track your bus with this tool to give you, your friends, and your family peace of mind.
  4. Simple Rescheduling: RedCoach makes changing or canceling your ticket seamless, even if your plans shift. Here’s what you need to know about adjustments:
  5. Online Changes: No fee, but you pay the difference in ticket price if the new fare is higher.
  6. Phone/SMS Changes: A $6 fee applies in addition to any fare difference.
  7. Deadline: Changes must be made at least 3 hours before your scheduled departure

By combining First-Class physical comfort with a stress-free baggage policy, RedCoach proves that the journey can be just as exceptional as the destination a student heading home to the suburbs or a visitor avoiding downtown parking fees, we get you closer to your actual destination.
