The other day I was watching this video by Steve Marsh about a Flixbus run from Rovaniemi Finland near the Arctic Circle to Krakow Poland, a 2000 km trip that takes about 40 hours. Technically they do get off one bus at Helsinki, ride the Ferry to Tallin Estonia then board a different bus to Krakow but it is all ticketed as one trip.

I wonder if there are any bus runs (on the same bus) that re longer than this. Perhaps one of the Greyhound runs across the Western US?

I don’t know of what is currently operated, due to the difficulty of finding timetables nowadays, but at one time, Greyhound and Trailways ran many thru buses from coast-to-coast, and border to border (and beyond), over lots of routes, and with multiple frequency.

Examples, include Boston or New York or Miami to San Francisco; Portland, ME to Miami; San Diego to Vancouver, BC; etc…
