NYC Washington is a special case where both cities have many high income people traveling on "business" and their was already a airplane shuttle that charged sky high prices.Yes, not at all like the groups of elderly people travelling between LA and LV on tickets provided to them by the casinos today riding the bus but a very viable market for DesertXpress. Middle and low income folks are taking the bus and can not afford $100 plus a ticket when the bus gets you there for less than $30 a head or driving even less(if you already own the car) Middle income people certainly can. I'd classify myself as being very much lower middle income, yet I can readily afford Amtrak's fares. And of course you're getting what you pay for in the case of DesertXpress as it will get you there an hour before a bus would be able to make the same trip. |
