I love Vonlane! 5 back surgeries make it not possible to drive from Arlington to Austin. However, Vonlane not only makes it possible but it has WiFi so I can work the whole ride. They serve food and snacks & drinks if wanted. It's a must try! read more

Recently needed to get to Houston to pickup my new truck. Thought about flying. But learned about Vonlane and gave it a try with the idea that it would take me at least 3 hours to go my Southwest, plus they wanted to charge $267 one way! And then there's all the hassle of flying by air! But for $99 I got a one way to Houston downtown and it was a great experience. First of all, I am a veteran flyer having been a consultant for many years. Vonlane has it goin' on! It was equivalent to flying in First Class, but even better, more like a charter jet. They have a uniformed flight attendant (ride attendant?) and, safety video, and you almost feel like you are in a plane. But the chairs are big and comfy, the bathroom is luxurious, overhead baggage compartments, foot rests. The attendant comes by every few minutes asking if you want snacks or something to drink. Oh and did I mention they have free wifi. I just put on my headphones, whipped out my laptop, and worked for 3 hrs peacefully while we rode in luxury to Houston. I didn't have to think about any traffic, lines, nothin'. Way to go Vonlane! Thinking of new reasons to ride again! I wish they had a trip to San Antonio from Austin. They just go to Houston and DFW area. I'd definitely go to see my family more often if they did! read more

My friend and I reserved round trip Austin TX - San Antonio TX. Austin pick up 10:40am was 25 minutes late. The San Antonio pick up 9:00 pm did not arrive by 9:45. At 9:30 I called the customer Svc number. They had no update on our bus and promised to call back within 15 minutes with an update. No call came, nor a bus, and so we called an Uber. Our Austin pick up bus was clean although the AC was set at Arctic. Other riders said the super cold temp was usual. If we had all the time in the world and no concerns about sitting in a vacant parking lot at 10pm. The service would have been fine. Zero stars read more

Loved my trip for business from Houston to Ft. Worth. The attendant was lovely and attentive. I appreciated her and the bus driver communicating about traffic. We left promptly and arrived in great time. I highly recommend. read more

GREAT way to get from Houston to Austin. I HATE losing that valuable time driving and with Vonlane, I don't! LOVE the fact that you get picked up/dropped off at the Hyatt. Convenient and not sketchy! Bus is needing a little upkeep, but is truly great. Question: where are the plugs?? Again, great experience! I will definitely do it again. read more

Best trip to Austin eva! I'm now a Vonlane lover ... delightful service ... and jump on the bus 4 min before departure ...blows air travel away! Never again will I fly or drive myself ... looking forward to another first class ride on the Vonlane read more

We love Vonlane. So easy and comfortable and much better than hassling with airport. It's great to have WiFi and plenty of legroom. We use Vonlane every time we go to Houston. read more

Taking a short trip to Austin for the weekend on Vonlane. Just want to say that if service is important to you then Vonlane should be your source of ground transportation. Absolutely can't beat the top notch service! Nikki was awesome as usual. I've taken a couple of trips with her and she's always extremely professional and accommodating. I'm so glad that they've added more trips!! You will not be disappointed! read more

Outstanding experience. Service was excellent coupled with first class features specific to the comfort of the seats and onboard amenities. (WiFi, power at every seat, complimentary meal service and quality snacks). As a business traveler who is focused on maximizing productivity this is the solution to the Houston-Dallas trip! read more

I use Vonlane all the time. Great service, great food, and you can work the whole trip. No annoying TSA lines and restrictions on liquids. So why the four rating? The last three trips, I've had major technical problems. Seat outlets that don't work, a seat without a power box at all, and a busted USB port. I'm currently on a Vonlane bus with my laptop plugged in so I can charge my phone. The USB port is out and the attendant doesn't have a USB adapter so i can use the outlet. These items need to be logged and repaired. People use Vonlane so they can work while they are traveling. read more

I LOVE to travel on Vonlane because the comfort and service are exemplary. Bonus points to our driver, Harry, and attendant, Evan, for being extra helpful to all. read more

Great way to travel between Texas destinations. Cheaper than flying and don't have to worry about delays. Staff is very friendly. I honestly felt like I was flying first class and plenty of room to be comfortably working on my laptop. read more

This was an excellent alternative to Southwest Airlines for a short haul trip to Dallas. The travel time might be about the same when you consider dealing with airport parking, airport shuttle, TSA, waiting at the gate, standing in the boarding line at the gate, boarding the plane behind slow passengers, taking off & landing. On Vonlane you can actually be productive for several hours without distraction. I took Vonlane from Austin to Dallas with a same day return. Here are the highlights: 1. Bus left exactly on time (Don't arrive late!) 2. Extremely Clean. 3. Large first class comfortable reclining leather seats. 4. Each Row has a 120V receptacle for charging your phone and laptop. 5. They provide padded lap desks which are large enough for a laptop and mouse. 6. Pillows, blankets are provided along with a fresh bottle of water. 7. Less distractions and quieter than flying 8. The snacks and drinks are plentiful and the attendants pass by every 15 minutes to pick up trash and offer additional snacks. Service is at the highest level possible. 9. Wifi on board was fast enough for me to load and operate an advanced graphics program on a VPN. I was impressed. The Wifi dropped out somewhere between Waco and Hillsboro for about 10 minutes (each way). Possibly a dead spot and not Vonlane's fault. Advantages over flying: 1. Generally used by business travelers so you won't be stuck behind a family with small children kicking your seat and screaming. The ambiance is quiet and conducive to studying or getting work done. 2. They board about 15 minutes early so you can get settled, relax and start working on your laptop. No need to stand in line like you do at the airport and wait for 130 other passengers to board. 3. Much fewer distractions. 4. You can still use your laptop even if the seat in front of you is reclined fully back. Tips: 1. They seem to serve the food from the back to the front of the bus so in the back of the bus you will be eating about 20 minutes sooner. 2. Plan your seats carefully. In the morning if you're heading North make sure you're on the side of the bus without the glaring sunrise. If you're heading Due East in the morning or Due West in the evenings, avoid the front row if you don't want the sunlight directly in your face during the whole trip. They have blinds, but it's still something to keep in mind. 3. The seats with the built in tables seem to have a little less leg room. 4. The seats in Row 5 just in front of the Table Seats don't recline as much as other seats. 5. Alcohol is available, but they only take Debit Cards (not cash). read more

I rode this from Houston to Austin. I'll admit it's a little pricey, but it was the only bus I could find that accommodated my time constraints. Best bus ride ever! Ample legroom, friendly attentive service. I wish they had this on the east coast! read more

Vonlane is soooooo much better than trying to fly Southwest to Dallas! The service is awesome, the connecting locations are so convenient, and the comfort is truly first class! I recommend Vonlane to everyone I know who travels frequently between Dallas and Austin! (or Houston!) ... I'd love it if you added service between Austin and San Antonio! read more

I use Vonlane to Dallas and Houston as much as possible. Much cheaper than SW and I can accomplish so much more. No security lines and shutting off devices during take off. I can be on several conference calls, WebEx's and catch up on email. The bus drops you off at LoveField and I can Uber to my destinations. I love it -just wish there were a few more options on times. Overall - cannot say enough about Vonlane. read more

From Austin To Ft.Worth 100% better than driving. Watch TV, eat and take a nap in the leather recliner seating. Doesn't get any better!! read more

Traveled from Houston to Austin Terminal convienently located, only have to arrive 15 minutes prior to boarding and took the same amount of time to drive as I do. Staff was very friendly and accomodating. Very relaxing and enjoyable. Will do it again if I have the opportunity. read more

I have taken this bus to Houston a half dozen times and always found the service exceptional, but the person who was in charge of service on the bus last week (Kelly) moved me to write a review. She provided me with every little detail I needed to be comfortable and productive, even offering me a lightning adapter with my headphones. Seriously, yall, this is the real deal. read more

What a nice personal touch, Lol... I got an eviction notice... nice!.. so sad.... Vonlane tried hard to say I was too loud. Laughing about this with other guests, no louder than others as regular discussions were all around. All the server could talk about was how poorly they were paid and needed cash subsidies for tips to several patrons. Entrepreneurship in action host served spiked drinks to those who provided tips. Yeah, no doubt no one wants to listen to others on a call. I hate it as well. There were enough group conversations around for this not to be a problem. NEVER had this problem before but there was an incentive. Maybe Vonlane should pay their staff a bit more so they didn't have to resort to this level of client interaction. This was my first and only time trying this service.... there are other ways and providers. Surely this was an isolated case, most will never experience this I am sure, yet Vonlane management is a joke tying to justify actions without being present. You decide, experience it for yourself. read more

Vonlane - Lol, forgot to tip the little lady fast enough... - Transportation Near Me - Austin, Texas

Great experience from beginning to end. The staff was extremely friendly and helpful. There were plenty of snacks and even bourbon which I enjoyed after a long day especially on my trip back. I would highly recommend this is a travel alternative as it took exactly the same amount of time to ride Vonlane as it would to catch a flight from Austin to Dallas. I hope Mormor people use bomb lane so that they have more departures from Austin to Dallas read more

Vonlane - Vonlane travel! First class on wheels - Transportation Near Me - Austin, Texas

Took my first rides this week. I don't want to travel any other way anymore. Wonderful staff and service. Tons of room and power outlets.

A lot going for it. Convenient locations. If your schedule changes it won't cost you. You have the room to work or get some rest.

I took my entire team down to Austin from Dallas for an amazing team building experience. Vonlane started us off on the right foot. Easy, clean, comfy and relaxing are just four words to describe our experience. We were lucky enough to get Lita on our ride down and our ride back. She remembered all our names and really made us feel like family. Cant wait to book another trip! read more

Such an excellent alternative to flying! If you need to travel between big cities in the Lone Star State, this is the way to do it. Hassle free, no stress. Comfortable and spacious seating with plenty of leg and elbow room. The little extra amenities they provided were stellar--everything from neck pillows to laptop chargers to shoe shine. Also, the choice of snacks is way more expansive and enticing than dry peanuts and the drinks are served in an actual cup with a straw and a lid, unlike the dinky baby cups you get on airplanes. And the WiFi worked with zero issues! I've already raved about my Vonlane experience to family and friends and recommend it to anyone looking for a more enjoyable, comfortable way to travel Texas. read more

I just love Vonlane! You get a high quality luxurious comfortable travel experience with unlimited tasty snacks, amazing customer service and with all sorts of extras to make your ride as smooth and comfortable as possible. I'm hooked and love it! read more

Such a great idea! Incredibly punctual, staff was fantastic....no need to fly to Houston or Dallas. This is a much better solution and there is no hassle!! read more

Just rode Vonlane from Houston to Dallas. Great experience! The bus left on time and arrived on time! The bus is clean and roomy...and the seats are comfortable. There is even an attendant that will bring you snacks, drinks, a blanket....whatever you need! I highly recommend the Vonlane for travel! read more

Best travel experience by bus ever. I will never fly again between Texas cities as long as I can ride Von Lane. The most relaxing way to travel ever. read more

This is the best way to ride to Dallas or Houston. travel in total comfort and style. I highly recommend.

First trip for Carol and myself. Coach arrived when scheduled and left exactly on time. No lines, kept my boots on, wifi worked, good coffee and we arrived at destination when scheduled. Return trip was mirror image of first, except for brief traffic tie-up coming in at 5:30pm. This is a great service. We will use Vonlane between Houston, Dallas, San Antonio and Austin from now on. Easily beats flying, same amenities and less expensive. Hoping for expanded Texas schedule. read more

I just used Vonlane and it is a wonderful way to travel between Houston and Austin. The bus is comfortable, staff friendly and courteous. They were on time. It's a great alternative to driving so I could work and read. And so much more convenient than flying. read more

Used Vonlane to travel from Ft Worth to Austin for the holiday weekend. I definitely recommend them! The coach assistants were warm, kind & attentive. The drivers were professional & capable. The equipment is plush & comfortable. Great service! read more

I'm IN LOVE! I travel for business all over Texas, especially Dallas and Houston, while I live in Austin. Nothing upsets me more than flying to Houston or Dallas. Let's play it out... 1. Drive to Airport (20 mins) 2. Park car 3. Shuttle to terminal (5 mins) 4. Security - even TSA pre check is a LONG line now #anyoneandeveryone can get it. (10-20mins) 5. Thru security with an hour ish to spare, so I start to wander around aimlessly. (60 mins +) 6. Decide to sit at gate and get some work down...OH NO, wifi isn't working, or it's choppy at best. 7. Have to cancel conference call because I can't hear myself think, much less talk. 8. LOUD SPEAKER from gate attendant. "Ladies and Gentleman, we apologize for the inconvenience, but the aircraft scheduled to arrive has hit some unfortunate weather and had to divert to another airport. We will update you as soon as we know more.. Thank you for your patience! 9. I sit.....sometimes for hours.......and I'm at the mercy of SXSW. No refund, no rental car option, no voucher, NOTHING. I have to wait! 10. I could have driven it myself and gotten there sooner. OR - 1. I could drive to Hyatt downtown. 2. Valet my car 3. Hop on the bus 5 mins till departure. 4. 3 hours of continuous work, conference calls, attendants checking on me, feet up and reclined, comfy chairs, outlets, HEAVEN! AHHHHMAZZZZIINNNNGGGGGGGGGGG! Now, i just can't wait until you all branch out to San Antonio, Corpus Christi and Lubbock, and i'll be set! Thank you Vonlane. What an excellent experience. You have my business for life! Your biggest fan.. Amy read more

Vonlane is the BEST. I make the Dallas/Austin trip about 30 times a year, and while I used to dread it, I now find excuses to make the trip just so that I can ride Vonlane. The service and amenities are second to none. It's like flying first class, but better and far less stress in the lead up. Work productively and comfortably if you need to, or turn on some tunes and relax with a glass of wine! read more

I am thrilled to have this service between Austin and Houston. I have been driving this route for the past 8 years for work 1-2 times a month. Now I go once a week. Vonlane is first class service all the way. They have thought of everything. So much better than flying too. They cater to the business traveler. I come home happy that I am caught up on work and don't have to spend several hours catching up like before. I don't dread my Houston trips anymore ! It is worth every penny. read more

Although we had a joyful trip between Austin to Dallas, left a lot to be desired. Its seems the driver is not helpful as Willard who took us there. Our back was October 3rd, 12o'clock trip from Austin to Dallas. it appeared to me that the driver was trying to drive the bus as a car. lane 2 lanes rather than stick on one. Again, total difference with the experience from Dallas to Austin. But the stewardess was perceptional because our food was late and she took care of us lunch at Hyatt Starbuck. Thought you should know. read more

Super clean bus and polite, professional women ( the driver and attendent). I'll gladly travel this way again. read more

Looks like I share the same sentiments of most reviewers on here when I say this service is incredible!!! Blew my expectations out of the water. I've been flying between AUS and DAL 1-2x per week for the last several months, each time losing 3-4 hours out of my day to travel to the airport, wait in line at security (even w pre-check), wait for the flight, delays, etc, etc. The comfort, amenities, customer service are incomparable to that on the flight. I am totally sold as a loyal customer going forward... my only regret is not knowing about this company much sooner!!! read more

Totally worth it. Great service and super responsive to questions via email. They were a little past 1 getting into Dallas but that is understandable. I'll be using this service again. read more
