You may be right, but I so dream of a serious competitor to air travel in the US. Flying is so expensive, inconsistent, uncomfortable, and stressful.
I've experienced missed connections/cancellations on roughly 1/3 of my flights over the last 5 years, only a handful of which were due to weather. Maintenance/software problems and operation bottlenecks accounted for the rest.
I hope some will look at this as an alternative to air travel because we desperately need it.

Long distance [bus] in the US almost exclusively serves the low-end of the market and it's hard to see why that would change.
