There are some people who associate bus travel with the school buses that ferry school children to schools from home and back. But if you come to think of it, there is much more to bus travel and buses than just school buses. For more than a century now, buses have been used widely by commuters as well as long distance travels to traverse the course of cities, towns, countries and even continents. You will still find a wide variety of buses in most parts of the civilized and urban world. This is because buses are a comfortable and relatively inexpensive mode of transport that can easily carry loads of people from one point to the other, over land. There are cases when buses can be ferried across channels on barges (like on the English channel), but that's a whole different story.
You will find buses of every hue across the nations of the world. From the humble single deck school buses to the luxury long distance coaches, there are indeed so many variations of buses that play across the roads and highways of the globe. In some parts of the world, cross country and even cross continent travel by buses is very much a reality. There is a sense of joy and delight in traveling by bus, and this joy is enhanced if the bus has a cup holder which adds to the convenience of bus travel.
Passengers in buses do like to consume food and drinks in order to satiate their hunger and quench their thirst. This is understandable given the fact that they have to travel long distances in these buses. Eating or drinking also helps to break their monotony. It is here that a cup holder comes in quite handy as these help bus travelers to hold glasses, cups or even small flasks in place without running the chance of spilling stuff all over the place. Cup holders are thus important enablers of bus tidiness and cleanliness.
Some people are of the wrong notion that it takes some special skill to fit a cup holder to the bus armrest. The fact of the matter is that with the new Velcro technology that has made its appearance, it is supremely easy to strap the cup holder on to the bus.
Many buses do not come with factory fitted cup holders. Hence it is sometimes up to the travelers to search the web for solutions or make bus authorities aware of the need for special bus cup holders.
