Big Sky Coaches has launched its new service, named Big Sky Intercity. It says it will operate throughout South Africa.
Big Sky has a fleet of 40 luxury coaches which will now operate and stop at all major towns across the country.
The company launched its intercity service with twin events in Cape Town and Johannesburg on Friday, September 1.
Big Sky says its intercity service offers passengers safe, dependable and affordable travel throughout South Africa.
The emergence of the coach operator as an intercity operator adds significantly to the Big Sky Coaches brand which had previously provided only charter and tour services focused on the central parts of South Africa.
Big Sky Coaches CCO Shaun Smeda said: “The addition of Big Sky Intercity further extends our significant operations and footprint and enables us to bring more top-class commuting services to more communities across the country.”
The company says that all coaches are equipped with the latest technology, including specialised safety equipment, heating and air conditioning, video and audio entertainments systems, on-board restroom facilities, soft reclining seats fitted with individual safety belts, and individual arm rests and reading lights.
Big Sky Intercity will operate between over 150 destinations across South Africa, including the major urban centres of Durban, Johannesburg and Cape Town.
