Fares and how to book cheap
The Tremonton–Pocatello Megabus fare floor is $7.50 when booked at the schedule open, typically 60 to 90 days in advance. Fares climb in tiers as seats sell — most travelers booking inside the two-week window pay $16 to $25, with same-day walk-up fares often at or above the typical maximum.
The cheapest departures on this corridor are mid-week (Tuesday and Wednesday), early Saturday morning, and early Sunday morning. Friday afternoon and Sunday evening are the most expensive slots and the first to sell out. Reserved seating runs an extra $5.00 to $8.00 on top of the base fare.
What to expect on board
Megabus uses single-deck or double-deck coaches on this corridor depending on demand. All buses include free onboard Wi-Fi (best-effort), 110V power outlets at every row, reclining leather or vinyl seats, and an onboard restroom. Standard luggage allowance is one personal item under the seat plus one underbus bag up to 50 lb included in the base fare.
Wi-Fi works well for messaging and email but is unreliable for video streaming, particularly in rural sections of the route. Outlets are functional at most rows; bring a 10,000 mAh battery pack as backup. Climate control runs cool — bring a layer regardless of season.
