Your Flight Is Operated By What?!

I take the ABE-EWR trip 6-8 times a year. It's far more reliable than the ORD flights and its staffed by some of the most dedicated folks (Bob, who recently retired, drove the route 2x a day 6 days a week for 10+ years...talk about consistency). It's also great that I can use the internet the entire time vs. flying on a cramped regional jet. I would love an ABE-PHL bus too if US Airways would do it.

@Andrew No TSA on the bus? Sounds great! (Actually lack of TSA is a great reason to take a bus or train on the Northeast Corridor)

The first time I took the bus service from ABE to EWR was one of my first times traveling alone, sometime in my middle school years. I showed up at the ABE airport, got my boarding pass, saw that the gate said "bus," and thought to myself, "oh, that must be a business gate," so I kept going and got in the security line. Was almost all the way through security when someone closely looked at my boarding pass and told me that I had to go back upstairs, outside, and get on an actual bus (more like a 12 passenger van) to drive to EWR. Pretty funny looking back on it.

I have an upcoming flight on the 787 - NRT-LAX. When I requested an upgrade with miles, the aircraft type changed from the Dreamliner to bus service.

Taking a bus from LHR to SFO? That's pretty interesting. Even Google doesn't know how to do that -- they only offer plane, driving, bicycle, and walking directions :P
