We are not rich but sometimes its not bad to indulge yourself in a luxurious lifestyle. It’s for the sake of new experience and excitement.
That’s what we did when we traveled from Manila to Baguio in our last family outing. We booked a “Joy bus Executive” coach so somehow we could feel that VIP style kind of treatment on a long travel hours.

First of all, this bus coach P750.00 each person (P720.00 + P30.00 booking fee). Ordinary Air-con bus like in Victory liner costs P455.00. Math says that by just adding P295.00, you can now experience this luxury bus. Is it worth it? A big resounding yes!
Comfort Room: I think the distinctive feature of this bus is the CR. Since there’s already CR, expect that this bus will not have any stopover thus faster arrival time. However, you must ensure you have all the food and drinks you need along the way.
I have to commend the CR. It might look small in the outside, but inside it has a sink, mirror, tissue and soap. It also works like an airport CR. When you flush the toilet, it will open a black hole and all your waste will fall into oblivion. You won’t have to worry about faulty flush mechanism.
And like I said earlier, there’s no need to worry about smell. It’s convenient to sit beside the CR because it difficult to walk when the bus is moving. Also, there would be lights-out when you travel so it would be harder when your seat is far away.
The Seats: Yes it’s comfy. Guaranteed. Plus, each seats has big spaces from the front and behind seats. So you can stretch and adjust the angle of your seat to your liking. If you’re lucky and no one was behind you, you can make it almost like a bed.
Aside from that they provide blankets, Hansel cookies and mineral water.
All in all, it was a pretty cool experience. Comfort is worth the price. I totally recommend it. Now I wonder what Premier bus looks like. I think the only complain I have is it took a long time before our valid ID’s were returned by the stewardess. They must have validated our identities a lot. But this one is tolerable and quite subjective.
To this time I heard there’s a new bus to Bicol with bed racks. And the most intriguing is the bus with karaoke, kitchen and bedrooms. I have more things to looks forward to and try next time.
