A Special Message from 

Curtis Riggs, CEO

To Our Valued Customers,

As a privately-owned company, we understand the need to keep costs down while operating efficiently. We constantly search for ways to maximize the value of our services. From time to time, however, it is necessary to adjust our rates to compensate for increases in expenses.

You may notice that there’s an itemized charge on your most recent charter. Starting in June 2022, VIA Trailways has added a 15% fuel surcharge to all newly chartered trips. Today’s fuel prices are changing at an unforeseen pace due to uncontrollable elements; inflation, higher demand and most predominately, the war
in Ukraine. A fuel surcharge is needed to recover this cost increase.

We want to assure you that even with the added fuel surcharge, the cost to charter a bus from VIA Trailways is still one of the lowest in our region. In addition, chartering a bus for your trip will save you money on gas, vehicle maintenance and time. Our buses seat up to 55 passengers, so when you charter a VIA bus, you’re reducing an average of 13 vehicles on the road, thereby decreasing emissions and the cost paid at the pump.

At VIA Trailways, we strive to provide the best service at a reasonable cost. We also maintain the highest level of professionalism which you know you can always expect from us.

We value your business and look forward to continuing to meet your transportation needs.

The driver’s great attitude and impressive skills maneuvering in and out of traffic made the group feel safe and secure.

-Ellen

The drivers went about their duties with a smile and a service-minded attitude that instilled confidence in those of us who went on the trip.

-Chuck

I am very honored to have the opportunity to continue to work with you, all your staff, and of course your amazing drivers.

-Karin

The coach with the galley was great. We could store extra lunches and had a place for coolers and extra cases of water. It suited our needs perfectly.

-Ann

I can’t thank you enough for your every attention to detail that made our club’s trip so special. It was truly a pleasant experience to work with you.

-Marcia

Thank you for driving the bus for us. I liked that you were like a tour guide. I liked that you showed us everything that we wanted to see. I liked that you were so nice to us.

-Annie, age 8

Thanks so much for your expert driving us around San Francisco and the parks.  Your competency behind the wheel of our big bus made us feel comfortable and safe.  We hope you will drive us again on another tour.

-Andrea & Hank

I wanted to pass along a compliment we received from our Prime Sport clients on the busses and drivers we had on Saturday. They experienced a lot of great feedback from their clients and staff. Our Prime Sport clients travel the country using different bus companies all over so their expectations are naturally very high. I appreciate you and your staff making us look great again. Please thank all the drivers for me.

-Collin

Thank you so much for assigning Jim to our group. He was fabulous!  Not only was he is responsible bus driver … he was kind and friendly to all of our participants. And … I have to tell you … in remarkable fashion … Jim donated his tip to our program at the end of the trip! WOW! We were all blown away! I am very pleased with the services of your bus company.  Please feel free to use me as a reference!
