The Radar: Bolt to Beat the Pump

Affordable and luxurious public transportation from SEA to PDX at its finest.

Bike, train, plane, scooter, magic carpet—really any mode of transportation at this point has to be cheaper than traveling by car. Cheaper, yes—but convenient, comfortable and prompt are not all adjectives typically used to describe the rest of these options.

BoltBus is on a mission to save you time and money by providing a relatively inexpensive and easy option for traveling between Seattle and Portland.

This is the first route for BoltBus in the Pacific Northwest—the rest of their fleet has been cruising up and down the East Coast since 2008 providing affordable and reliable express service from major cities like New York, Philadelphia and Baltimore.

In addition to lavish and comfortable interiors that include plush leather seats as well as plenty of leg room, these buses also provide free Wi-Fi and boast fares as low as $1 per ride.  Most rides will cost anywhere from $6-10 with prices sometimes as high as $25, however every trip is guaranteed to sell at least one seat for $1.

Even better—forget racking up your credit card bill in order to earn miles, sign up for the Bolt Rewards program and earn a free trip with every four round-trips purchased as well as benefit from non-stop, speedy service at the fraction of the cost of filling up your tank.

About Taylor Moore

Born in Farmville, Virginia (much cooler than the Facebook game), but raised in Olympia, Taylor graduated from University of Washington with a B.A in Communications and Sociology. She’s a major foodie and loves trying new restaurants and new food, and is also passionate about traveling the globe — just like her idol, Anthony Bourdain. When she’s not writing, eating, lustfully wandering Nordstrom or J. Crew, or looking up cat videos on YouTube, you might find Taylor jet-setting around to sunnier skies whenever she gets the opportunity.
