RailYatri Launches IntrCity SmartBus Lounge at Lucknow

In India bus stands or bus stations are often considered as ‘not-so-pleasant’ places to wait. Given the extreme weather conditions in the country and sometimes long waiting hours, it proves to be a horrid experience for bus travelers if they have to wait. But no more! RailYatri thought of changing this scenario and it started with Lucknow by introducing the city to a brand new smart bus lounge by IntrCity.

The first-of-its-kind for the bus travellers, the air-conditioned lounge boasts of free WiFi, charging points for laptops and mobile phones, laptop workstations, clean washrooms, stretched out chairs and a tea & coffee machine.

Presence of polite and aware staff adds to the joy of travel. IntrCity in more than one ways has redefined bus journeys in India.

The SmartBus Lounge at Lucknow

City of tehzeeb, Lucknow, welcomed the first SmartBus Lounge at the famous Awadh Chowk on June 19, 2019.

The IntrCity SmartBus Lounge is a well-thought through space designed especially for frequent business travelers, who can check-in well before the scheduled departure of their bus to avoid last minute rush. They can let their hair down a little over a glass of water and even wind up important official work over a cup of coffee or tea while waiting for their IntrCity SmartBus.

CEO Speaks

Speaking about the SmartBus Lounge, RailYatri’s CEO and Co-founder, Mr Manish Rathi, said, “Despite being one of the busiest routes, thousands of passengers were forced to wait for their bus in the open. As a responsible service provider, we thought of filling in the gap and solving this problem. With the launch of our SmartBus Lounge, we intend to give them a holistic experience, which starts from the time they arrive at the boarding point till they reach their destination safe and on time. A facility like this also gives them a sense of comfort, safety and exclusivity.”
