The Workhorse Of Modern Travel

There are times when all you can afford in terms of travel is a bus. This small business automobile is extremely comfortable, convenient and also a cheap means of transport. Air travel is quite luxurious, but when it comes to affordable means of cross country travel, nothing even comes close to a bus. The word bus is a derivative of the original word ‘omnibus’ which means that it is a rather universal mode of transport. Buses have been in operation for quite some time now (over a century) and have rendered a yeoman’s service to the cause on land transport. While train travel and now air travel have become quite commonplace, bus travel still occupies pride of place in many parts of the world.

When it comes to buses, you can have a wide range of carriages, ranging from London style double-decker buses to luxurious Greyhounds in the US and everything in between (see Australia travel packages). One can have super luxury coaches with air conditioning and temperature control to more basic, run of the mill buses that ply between cities. In Europe, it is also possible to cross the continent using luxury bus coaches which are the delight of so many tourists doing the Greece to England circuit over the Channel Tunnel. One of the unique features that adds to the comfort and luxury of such buses is the presence of cup holders for the benefit of bus travelers.

Bus travel can be a very enjoyable experience. As you zip across the states or across countries, you may like to sip a cool or hot beverage depending on your taste and the mood. Now holding a cup or a glass in a fast moving bus is not the easiest of things, which implies that cup holders would be quite appropriate in buses. These cup holders can be fitted to the arm rests or perhaps to the back of the seat in front of the passenger.

Using cup holders in buses has become quite simple and convenient on account of the fact that one can use the simple Velcro strap-on technology which helps you fasten the cup holder with ease.

If you want to find out more about cup holders, just type in ‘cup holder’ on an internet search engine and evaluate the various options that are thrown up. If the bus you use does not sport cup holders, you can perhaps talk to the concerned bus authorities too.
