Onboard amenities make traveling more confortable than driving.

Ticket prices begin at $39 for adults and $19.50 for children, with sleeper accommodations available at higher rates. Bringing a personal vehicle on board can help travelers avoid expenses related to fuel costs, highway tolls, and extended overnight stays. This option provides a practical solution for those who prefer to have their own transportation upon arrival.
