Instead of flying or driving themselves, people travelling between San Francisco and Los Angeles are choosing to make the trip on this custom designed bus.
Named the SleepBus, it travels overnight from San Francisco to Los Angeles, as you sleep comfortably on a bed.

The inside of the truck has been fitted out with private bunk style pods, that have a privacy screen, personal power outlets, a reading light, WiFi, and fresh sheets.
The bus departure time is 11pm in both San Francisco and Los Angeles, and the trip generally arrives at the destination around 5-6am, but they let you keep sleeping until 9am.
Apparently it’s been very popular since launching because they’re currently sold out, but they aim to have 10 new buses on the road in August 2016.

SleepBus currently uses a chartered bus with 20 beds for its service, but once the company scales up, plans include commissioning custom Van Hool buses.
Tickets are currently $48 one way, or $96 round trip. Currently the bus only runs direct between San Francisco and Los Angeles, but the company hopes to expand service, including to regional cities such as Tahoe, San Diego and Las Vegas.
