With an overnight 'VIP' bus, we get seats like a plane's Business class, complete with TV or movies, snacks served, and when we wake up in the morning we are approaching the destination refreshed and ready rather than dragging!

And of course now you have to wonder if your plane is even going arrive or go off into the twilight zone
