Before the era of ride sharing, many people dismissed inter-city transports like this one as impractical. But now, with Uber/Lyft, it's not at all unreasonable to take a luxurious sleeper between SF and LA and get where you need to be quite easily. Not having to deal with a TSA strip searches, no multi-tools, 23" or smaller carryons, and now "pay extra to carry on, pay extra to reserve a seat". Buses and trains are sounding better and better, and this tech savvy system sounds really good, especially once they can bring the price down to a competitive level.
