A newly launched premium bus service operated by the Kerala State Road Transport Corporation has drawn widespread attention on social media after a vlogger shared a video showcasing its high-end interiors and onboard facilities.

The service, operating between Thiruvananthapuram and Kochi, offers passengers a road journey designed to resemble a premium flight experience, with leather seats, individual entertainment screens, free Wi-Fi, refreshments, a hostess and even an onboard bathroom.

Video Offers Tour Of Premium KSRTC Bus

The video was shared on Instagram by vlogger Ajay Johny, who took viewers through the facilities available on the bus during the journey between Thiruvananthapuram and Kochi.

The two cities are separated by roughly 200 to 227 km, depending on the route.

Highlighting the service’s premium positioning, Ajay says in the video, “Now the business class facility is not only for international flights but also for Kerala KSRTC buses.”

The clip has since turned the newly launched service into a talking point, with social media users taking note of the facilities offered on what is otherwise a familiar long-distance KSRTC route.

Leather Seats, Screens And Free Wi-Fi

The bus is fitted with plush leather seats, while individual entertainment screens are provided for passengers.

Free Wi-Fi is also available onboard, allowing passengers to remain connected during the journey.

Charging ports at the seats provide another convenience, enabling travellers to charge their phones and other devices while on the move.

Together, the features give the service a distinctly more premium feel than conventional long-distance bus travel.

Hostess And Refreshments Add To Experience

The service also has a hostess to assist passengers during the journey.

In the video, refreshments are served to passengers, including hot beverages and a shawarma roll.

The onboard service is designed to add another layer of comfort to the journey and move the experience beyond that of a conventional intercity bus ride.

Onboard Bathroom Draws Attention

One of the features highlighted in the video is the onboard bathroom.

The washroom, shown in the clip, appears clean and well maintained, providing additional convenience for passengers travelling between Thiruvananthapuram and Kochi.

The combination of comfortable seating, entertainment, internet connectivity, charging facilities, refreshments and the onboard washroom has helped the bus service attract attention online.

Social Media Users Take Notice

The video was also shared on X by Ananth Rupanagudi, Chief Project Manager with Indian Railways, who praised the service.

With its focus on comfort and convenience, the premium KSRTC service has given the traditional idea of a long-distance bus journey a significant upgrade.

The viral video has further amplified interest in the service, with its flight-like approach to road travel emerging as one of the main reasons behind the attention it has received on social media.
