CYPRESS, CA — Insight Vacation is rolling out over 100 customized ‘Business Class’-style coaches throughout Europe, Britain and the United States in 2025.
On board, guests enjoy a range of comforts including air-conditioned cabin temperature control, 19- to 23-inch TV screens, large panoramic windows with double the view of standard coaches and curtains for added privacy. The surround sound system enhances commentary from the Travel Director, and ample overhead storage and an onboard restroom ensures a comfortable journey. Guests also enjoy porterage with their luggage being loaded and unloaded on arrival and departure at their accommodations.
In addition, each ‘Business Class’-style coach seat provides an impressive 90-110cm/35.5-43 inches of legroom, up to 55% more than the 71-80cm/28-31.5 inches found in standard coaches. The seats recline up to 30 degrees and are equipped with footrests, tray tables, drink holders, seat pockets, and charging units.
“Our luxury coach fleet including Mercedes Benz, Volvo and Scania, has been exclusively customized to deliver an unparalleled travel experience for our small group tours, much like a Business Class cabin in the sky. With extra legroom, and thoughtful premium touches, this elevated experience has been at the heart of Insight Vacations guests since its inception,” said Melissa DaSilva, interim CEO of TTC Tour Brands. “These coaches are custom designed for Insight Vacations (and sister-brand Luxury Gold) and offer more personal space, meaning elevated comfort for 13 fewer passengers than standard coaches.”
According to industry reports, approximately 15%-30% of leisure travellers actively look for upgraded air services such as Premium Economy, Business Class or First-Class travel; Insight Vacations’ customized coaches deliver this premium service for guests on the road.
“With the uplift in interest for elevated air travel, travel advisor partners can maximize their sales by offering clients the opportunity to continue this level of comfort when on the ground. Agents can be assured of client satisfaction not only from the Business Class style coach experience but from the superior end-to-end experience that Insight Vacations offers as the world’s leading premium tour operator,” said DaSilva.
