# Portland to Seattle with wifi, power outlets, and legroom? I’d buy that for a dollar

Portland and Seattle, while similar and complementary, are usually just far enough away from one another to make it a pain in the ass to get between the two towns. But that may be changing. At a price startups can afford—with amenities to boot.

Introducing [BoltBus](https://www.boltbus.com "BoltBus").

> BoltBus strives to provide a safe, non-stop; premium-level bus service between major cities with fares as low as $1.

> BoltBus launched its premium brand of service in 2008 servicing the Northeastern portion of the United States and is excited to bring our brand of service and operational standards to the Pacific Northwest. Our service in Washington, Oregon and British Columbia is exclusively owned and operated by Greyhound Lines Inc.

Brand new buses, reserved seats, legroom, wifi, and outlets. That’s pretty awesome.

Portland to Seattle service starts in mid May.
