The Flying Carpet bus

Board the Sultana for a uniquely elegant and comfortable journey. Imagine a conventional bus stripped and transformed into a luxurious Persian social room. Instead of journeying in an uncomfortable seated position luxuriate on pillows and rugs in an open common area where you relax in ancient luxury. Strong coffee in small cups, incense, exotic traditional music, and low light would all contribute to relaxation and comfort. You would have your own bunk, upper or lower, with heavy rug curtains to give privacy when you want to sleep and a light for reading or working. Giant kabob platters from restaurants along the route make the experience immersive and keep the bus rolling. Wifi for you laptop addicts and workaholics.

Perfect when you want to vacation at a distance and don’t want your trip to be punctuated by the horror of the airport system. Passengers are on for the entire route and a porter rides with the passengers to see to their needs and serve the inclusive coffee and food. Other food and drinks would be available in limited quantities but the general idea is avoid anything that suggests a human sardine tin.
