Megabus to start Philly service

Travelers will soon be able to catch a bus from D.C. to the City of Brotherly Love for the starting price of a buck.

Beginning March 21, Megabus will offer service to Philadelphia. Customers can start booking seats today.

"Due to significant customer demand, we are delighted to add service between these two great cities," said Megabus President and Chief Operating Officer Dale Moser in a press release. Megabus currently has a route from Washington to New York City. It operates throughout the Northeast and Midwest.

A spokeswoman for express bus competitor BoltBus said that she was unaware of any changes to its routes. It also has service from D.C. to New York.

More to come on the availability of routes.
