Inside £1.2million Dreamliner bus that’s like boutique hotel room on wheels with luxury lounge area & private bathroom
A COMPANY you have never heard of build tour buses worth £1.2 million with facilities akin to a luxury hotel room.
Dreamliner Luxury Coaches based in Nashville , Tennessee, build sprawling buses that take some of the biggest stars in the world on tour.
Taylor Swift, Drake, Olivia Rodrigo and SZA have all booked buses made by the specialist firm.
And the vehicles made by Dreamliner are worlds away from the coaches that millions travel on with firms such as Greyhound and National Express.
The firm typically buy an empty bus shell and then start work creating a luxury environment, with hotel standard
bedrooms and bathrooms.
The complete coaches feature Nespresso machines, smart TVs, and Le Labo candles.
Some coaches even feature recording studios on board for artists who wish to lay down tracks while on the road.
Jeremy Maul, Dreamliner’s CEO told Business Insider that the coaches are now the preferred mode of transport for some of the world’s biggest artists.
He said: “We’re the bus company you call when you’ve made it.
“We work with the big runs like the Beyoncés and the Zach Bryans.
“We don’t have a lot of small entry-level artists.Once you’re a bigger band and you’re on a larger or year-round tour, that’s when you’re going to want to work with us.”
Rent for one full-service “star” bus starts at $50,000 a month, which includes necessities like a driver, gas, cleaning services, and WiFi.
A big star like Taylor Swift might need from 15 to 20 coaches for a tour like Eras.
And the company also provides high end vehicles to a portfolio of corporate clients.
Dreamliner’s 190 buses include different layouts like crew, star, and executive. The latter is geared towards corporate clients while “stars” are designed for musicians. The typical “crew” bus — for musicians who support the main act — can accommodate up to 12 people.
