We are eliminating the hassle of booking travels and making it very easy with just a few taps”.

 

Manoj Agarwala, CBO, redBus, mentioned, “As one of the largest online bus ticketing platforms, our mission is to make travel planning as seamless and accessible for our customers as possible. Young travellers are an important cohort for us and this partnership caters to them as hostels are used primarily by younger people. Moreover, several of the properties are off beat destinations, where buses are often the primary mode of transport. By working with The Hosteller, we are delivering a “one-stop solution” for all kinds of booking needs for our passengers”.
