I've found a few after May 12th, but with your attitude, I doubt you really care. Once I picked a destination I started scrolling through the dates and found several days where $1 fares are still available (aside from the booking fee, which the OP mentioned).
thank you so much for this. Smilie

for this?? smocker's post provided zero advice. Thanks belong to you for the topic

You mean aside from telling people how they can find the $1 fares instead of thread crapping like you were doing? If you don't like the deal, give it a thumbs down and move on.

if you must know, i thanked smoker for this becuase it gives an idea to other users of how they can find it. "Once I picked a destination I started scrolling through the dates and found several days where $1 fares are still available (aside from the booking fee, which the OP mentioned)."

Quote from AutoEnthusiast :
and Chicago area, Indiana, Ohio???
It's not profitable for them to continue operating. FYI, Megabus service from Chicago is actually Burlington Trailways which charges their own fares and does not have any $1 tickets.

Also, semi-related, bus services in many places are currently in a bear market due to the migrant buses from Texas/Florida causing many cities to pass ordinances that make it illegal to make "unscheduled bus stops". An unscheduled bus stop is up to the discretion of the city and makes it incredibly expensive to operate, under penalty of upwards of $3000 fines and impounding of the bus.

Many 1 dollar dates available within Texas on Fridays, Saturdays, and Sundays during the Summer. Unsure about other states but it seems like they are selling one discounted ticket per ride. Total is 5 dollars plus tax after booking fee. Still a great deal if you can find a ticket.

What's the business reason Megabus avoids California (except 1 stop in Truckee)?

Quote from AutoEnthusiast :
1. contrary to headline, Megabus won't sell you anything for $1. Due to website fee, the lowest ride is $4.99 - period. No $1 ride
2. all destinations I've seen are abridged to certain periods: either prior to May 12 or only starting May 6. I dare anyone find otherwise

I've taken it from Washington DC to Atlanta for the $1 fare before. Even at $4.99 with the online fee it's really hard to complain about it. It got me there in one piece and I didn't have to pay an extra fee for the huge air fryer I was bringing with me.

Pro Tip for those wanting to fly to New York and want to save a little.

You can fly into Philadelphia and take the train from the airport to the Megabus stop. Even if you don't get the $1 fare I think it's $5 if you book early. The most I've seen is $10 which still is pretty reasonable. It's only a couple hours ride from Philadelphia to Manhattan.

It also works in reverse. Last Christmas I flew my family to New York because I found a really cheap fare. The problem was going back home it would be quadruple the price from New York. I found a cheap flight going back home from Philadelphia so I booked us all $5 Megabus tickets from New York to Philadelphia. Bus wasn't full at all so we even got to sit in the nice window seat. We then just walked to the Philadelphia train station next to the Megabus stop and it took us directly to the airport.
