Private Transit Doable


Atlanta to Athens for $2.50 (the same fare as
MARTA) and they make a profit!

“… Megabus is capitalizing on the “safe,
convenient, low-cost” combination that appeals
to riders sick of the gas price rollercoaster.
Some trips via bus can easily cost you less than
it would to drive yourself.”

“I took the jaunt to Athens via Megabus last
week to test it out.  My round-trip price: $2.50
with the service fee.”

“The buses provide free Wi-Fi Internet and
outlets in which to plug your laptop, reader or
tablet.”

“Each trip will take a bit longer than it would
if you drove yourself, but not by much.”
