What are the Bus Classes & Prices of BP Tour?

The price of your bus trip will depend both on the destination and the class of your ticket. Note that not all ticket classes are available on certain routes yet for longer trips there is almost always a good choice of options. Opt for a sleeper coach for the most convenient overnight trip. Sleeper buses are usually equipped with berths or soft reclining seats, feature an onboard toilet and your ticket may also include other perks like snacks or even a lunch. Taking a night bus is also a good idea if you want to save on your hotel room. During the day an express service is often the best value for money as it makes less stops than an ordinary or standard class bus and travels faster. On some routes it may be crucial to choose the right class as, say, an ordinary or second class bus may need some 6 hours to cover the distance the first class or express bus travels in two hours!

Pros & Cons of Bus Travel

Pros of bus travel.

Buses usually boast the widest network of destinations covered. They travel to the places you cannot get to by plane or even by train

Travelling by bus is easy – there is no need to arrive to the bus terminal much in advance, and the check-in is usually a very fast formality opposite to air travel

Bus tickets are very affordable. Yes, there are costly first class or VIP options but is you are on a budget, bus is the first means of transportation you have to think about

At the same time, there are different classes of service to suit any budget. If you are after a higher level of comfort, buses get you covered, too.

Cons of Bus Travel

Intercity bus terminals can be located outside the city centre in the outskirts. It means you will need to calculate extra time and money to get there. In certain destinations getting from the bus terminal can cost you more than you would expect because only a limited number of transportation companies is allowed to serve the route – and prices may be inflated.

During busy weekends or high season buses serving some tourist destinations may run out of schedule and require advanced booking.

While buses are not as weather dependent as ferries, bus trips can also be delayed or cancelled due to bad weather or road conditions – keep it in mind if travelling during certain seasons or to certain destinations.

About BP Tour

Bus is a convenient way of travel no matter whether you need to get to a neighboring town a couple of hours away or venture further afield crossing the whole country. Whatever your budget, buses have you covered. Express buses offer the most affordable ticket price for travellers who have very little money to spend. VIP options are geared toward those who do not want to compromise on comfort. Before you jump on a bus, make sure you choose the type of service which suits you best. For a long-haul trip look for a VIP or first-class coach which provides non-stop service to your destination or just call a minor number of stations along the way. Express or local buses in many cases may prove an acceptable choice for shorter trips, but longer rides are often not the best buy. Study the timetable before going as many long-haul destinations are served by night buses, and some offer wider seats or sleeper berths for such travels. Make an online reservation for your bus ticket with BP Tour. Other travellers’ reviews will help you to choose the best ticket and coach class.

BP Tour Ticket Prices & Bus Classes

One of the best things about bus travel is that you can almost tailor-make your trip adjusting it to your requirements for privacy and comfort. Different classes and types of buses cater to the different needs of travellers. The cheapest trips are normally offered by standard-class buses. They may be called local, express or ordinary. These are a good choice for shorter trips. Sleepers or VIP coaches are good both for longer and overnight trips. They may offer berths or wide soft reclining seats, sometimes with built-in massage options, blankets, soft drinks, and snacks, or more substantial meals on board or during toilet or refuelling stops. Travelling by night buses allows you to save on a hotel room, but to ensure the most comfortable ride do choose the class of your bus wisely. Prices always depend on the distance you ride and the type of coach. For some, even shorter trips, it is worth investing some extra money and buying a seat on a VIP bus as it can save you twice as much time as you spend travelling by an ordinary bus.

Travel by Bus: Pros & Cons

Pros of bus travel.

• Bus is the best choice to get to destinations that are not connected by rail or planes. The network of buses often covers almost the whole country, and their routes are well and long-established.
• Opposite to air travel and sometimes rail travel, taking a bus does not require arriving at the bus station much in advance. Check-in, even on international routes, does not take much time. Luggage allowances are usually very traveller-friendly, and the fee for extra luggage, if limits are set, is normally not very high.
• Bus tickets can be more affordable compared to air or fast train tickets. There is always a choice of ticket classes for all pockets. Cheaper standard options may be a bit slow and do not offer top comfort, but anyway acceptable and bring you to your destination. On longer routes, toilets or toilet stops as well as snacks, water, and sometimes toiletries and blankets are almost always included in the price.
• If you are ready to spend more, some VIP coaches offer seating comparable to business class on a plane with wide soft reclining seats, blankets, fewer passengers, and many other perks to make your trip a pleasant journey.

Cons of Bus Travel

• Newer intercity bus terminals are very often located out of the city close to bigger highways to allow buses to avoid city congestion. Unfortunately, it may create extra challenges for travellers, too. Getting to such a terminal may be a problem as in some destinations there are restrictions on vehicles allowed to enter the terminal, and you will have to use special carriers to get there. This results in higher costs as prices may be inflated. Also do calculate extra time if you are travelling during rush hours, especially if you are not familiar with the traffic situation at your starting point.
• Buses are probably the means of transport which runs out of schedule more often than trains or planes. They are heavily dependent on the road situation which sometimes can be unpredictable – accidents, road construction works, detours, etc. This is especially true for travels during weekends, high season, or national holidays. Do keep this in mind and do not plan tight connections.
• Travelling on certain routes or during the most popular periods may require advanced booking. Bear in mind that it is not always possible to show up at the bus station and hop on the next bus – tickets may well be all sold out, so organize your trip accordingly.

PREVIOUS POST:

We’re excited to announce our next action: a disobedient livestreamed tour of the BP-sponsored British Museum on Saturday August 14th!

Stolen Goods Tours Presents :

Striking Back at the Empire: an unofficial tour of the British Museum

A disobedient tour calling for honesty about the past, justice in the present, and a safer climate future.

Saturday August 14th, 2pm BST, register at stolen-goods-tour.eventbrite.co.uk

Join online to watch our livestreamed disobedient tour, making the links between objects in the museum’s collection, the history of the British Empire, and struggles for global and climate justice around the world today.

Zita Holbourne , National Vice President of PCS Union, National co-chair of Artists’ Union England, National Chair of BARAC UK (Black Activists Rising Against Cuts)

Mona M. , Iranian visual artist and researcher

Onyekachi Wambu , Project Director of the Return of the Icons programme, African Foundation for Development (AFFORD)

With special contributions from singer-songwriter Hellena ( hellenaofficial.com ) and others TBC!

Ancient empires. The British Empire. Oil empires. Whether it’s proudly displaying stolen artefacts, or holding a Nero exhibition sponsored by the oil giant BP, the British Museum seems keen to celebrate empires and imperialism right now.

So on Saturday August 14th, a team of amazing speakers will take over key spaces in the museum to give the other side of the story in a completely unofficial “Striking Back at the Empire” tour.

More details to follow soon – sign up at stolen-goods-tour.eventbrite.co.uk for updates

We’ll be paying a visit to a number of contested artefacts in the museum, to hear speakers from the countries whose objects are on display. We’ll be joined by museum workers and climate justice campaigners who will join the dots between these issues. The museum is hiding the truth about the British Empire, while propping up the modern-day polluting empire of BP. Together, we will call on the museum to stop this modern-day colonial behaviour and instead start acting in the interests of the public, museum workers and the communities whose objects it holds.

We need our museums to tell us the truth about the British Empire and the objects in their collections, so we can have an honest discussion about righting the historic wrongs that lie at the root of so many global problems today, from resource wars to oppressive regimes to the climate crisis.

And of course, museums need to return stolen items to the communities demanding their return, and stop supporting fossil fuel giants like BP.

We need YOU to join the livestream to show your support – let’s show the British Museum that we’re watching them, and call on them together to do the right thing.

Public invited to tour bp Cherry Point

On Friday, September 29, bp Cherry Point will open its doors for a public open house, poster session and facility tour from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m.

Attendance is free, but reservations are required for each individual and are available online at bit.ly/3Lv1CiN . Those interested will want to secure their spots as soon as possible as tours in previous years filled up fast, said Pam Brady, bp Cherry Point government affairs manager.

The event starts at the bp Recreation Area tent located at the south end of Jackson Road near the Cherry Point pier.

Visitors will learn about the process of refining during a poster session and on a one-hour guided bus tour inside the refinery.

“It’s a great opportunity for folks to have access to people all the way from the frontline to the management of the refinery,” Brady said. “They are available to engage with the community and help people get their questions answered.”

Attendees of the morning tour can expect a free breakfast and coffee, and lunch will be provided for those attending in the afternoon. 

As of publication, time slots are still available for the bus tours, which depart at 20-minute intervals from 11:40 a.m. to 1 p.m.

Blood pressure chart: what your reading means.

High blood pressure is called hypertension. This blood pressure chart can help you figure out if your blood pressure is at a healthy level. It also can help you understand if you need to take some steps to improve your numbers.

Blood pressure is measured in millimeters of mercury (mm Hg). A blood pressure reading has two numbers.

• Top number, called systolic pressure. The top number measures the pressure in the arteries when the heart beats.
• Bottom number, called diastolic pressure. The bottom number measures the pressure in the arteries between heartbeats.

The American College of Cardiology and the American Heart Association divide blood pressure into four general categories. Ideal blood pressure is categorized as normal. Increased blood pressure may be categorized as elevated, stage 1 or stage 2 depending on the specific numbers.

A diagnosis of high blood pressure is usually based on the average of two or more readings taken on separate visits. The first time your blood pressure is checked, it should be measured in both arms to see if there is a difference. After that, the arm with the higher reading should be used. An accurate reading is important. It helps your healthcare team decide what kind of treatment you may need, if any.

Here's a look at the four blood pressure categories and what they mean for you. If your top and bottom numbers fall into two different categories, your correct blood pressure category is the higher category. For example, if your blood pressure reading is 125/85 mm Hg, you have stage 1 hypertension.

A blood pressure measurement over 180/120 mm Hg is called a hypertensive emergency or crisis. Seek emergency medical help for anyone with these blood pressure numbers.

Your healthcare team can tell you what the best blood pressure goal is for you.

If your blood pressure is OK, following a healthy lifestyle may prevent or delay high blood pressure or other health problems.

If your blood pressure is high, you may need lifestyle changes and medicines to control it and reduce the risk of complications, such as heart attacks and strokes.

Frequently Asked Questions

A blood pressure chart can help you interpret your results to see how they compare to the normal ranges.

Monitoring your blood pressure (BP) is an important part of maintaining your health. Blood pressure measures the force pressed against the walls of your arteries as your heart pumps blood through your body. Average blood pressure tends to differ by sex and rise with age.

This article covers how healthcare providers differentiate between "normal" blood pressure and hypertension (high blood pressure) and includes a blood pressure chart by age and gender. It also discusses the health risks involved with hypertension, how to monitor your blood pressure, and when to call your healthcare provider.

What Do Blood Pressure Numbers Mean?

Blood pressure readings are composed of two numbers—for example, 120/80 mm Hg. Both numbers are an important part of your blood pressure reading.

The top number ( systolic pressure ) measures the pressure in your arteries when your heart beats. The bottom number ( diastolic pressure ) measures the pressure in your arteries between each heartbeat.

The standard unit of measure, mm Hg, stands for "millimeters of mercury." Mercury pressure gauges have been replaced with electronic pressure gauges, but the abbreviation is still used.

Normal Blood Pressure for Adults

According to the American Heart Association, normal blood pressure for adults (ages 20 and older) is less than 120/80 mm Hg.

On the other hand, hypertension is defined as having a systolic pressure of 130 mm Hg or higher, or a diastolic pressure of 80 mm Hg or higher, most of the time.

Normal Blood Pressure for Children

Normal BP ranges vary in children by age. The University of Iowa Stead Family Children’s Hospital provides this blood pressure chart:

What is considered healthy for your child also varies by height, age, and sex. You can use Baylor College of Medicine's calculator to see if your child’s blood pressure reading is in a healthy range.

Average Blood Pressure by Age

As you get older, your blood vessels tend to become stiffer, and plaque (a fatty material) can build up in them, which can raise your blood pressure. If your blood pressure becomes too high, you're at a greater risk for heart disease , strokes , and more.

In 2015, the average blood pressure worldwide was 127/79 mm Hg in men, and 122/77 mm Hg in women, according to a study analysis published in Lancet .

When researchers for the National Center for Health Statistics looked at average blood pressure in U.S. adults between 2001 and 2008, the average reading was 122/71 mm Hg. The breakout was 124/72 mm Hg for men, and 121/70 mm Hg for women. It rose with age and was significantly higher in Black people.

The researchers found the following breakdown by age, sex, and race or ethnicity in this blood pressure chart:

High blood pressure for adults is divided into stages. At each stage, there is a greater risk to your health. A hypertensive crisis, which is measured at 180/120, is a sharp increase of blood pressure that may cause a stroke.

A consistent rise in your blood pressure over time comes with an increased risk to your health. Your healthcare provider is likely to respond in these ways: 

• Elevated : You are likely to develop hypertension unless you take steps to control it. These may include lifestyle changes, such as eating a heart-healthy diet, getting more exercise, and quitting smoking.
• Stage 1 hypertension : Your healthcare provider will probably recommend lifestyle changes. They may also prescribe medication, depending on your risk for cardiovascular disease, heart attack , or stroke.
• Stage 2 hypertension : Your healthcare provider will likely prescribe both medication and lifestyle changes to lower your blood pressure.
• Hypertensive crisis : Seek medical attention right away if your blood pressure is this high. You could experience a heart attack, stroke, or something else that can damage your organs or threaten your life.

How Blood Pressure Is Measured

Blood pressure testing stations can be found in pharmacies, workplaces, and medical clinics. You can also buy a blood pressure monitor online or at your local pharmacy.

To measure blood pressure, a cuff attached to a monitor is placed on your arm. The cuff is then inflated with an air pump until its pressure stops blood flow from your brachial artery—the major artery found in your upper arm.

As the cuff deflates, the device measures the pressure when blood starts flowing again (systolic pressure). Once the cuff is completely deflated, the device gauges the lowest pressure between beats (diastolic pressure).

Typically, more attention is given to the systolic pressure reading, as systolic blood pressure is a major risk factor for cardiovascular disease in people over the age of 50. Still, both readings are used to make a diagnosis.

How to Take Your Blood Pressure

If you're taking your blood pressure at home, there are certain steps you can take to get the most accurate reading possible.

Getting Started

The goal is to measure your blood pressure at its most stable. Hence, it's good practice to rest for five minutes in a calm environment before getting started. The AHA also advises against smoking, exercising, or drinking caffeinated beverages within 30 minutes before taking your blood pressure.

Proper Cuff Size

Healthcare providers often keep one default cuff in the examining room, which is generally meant to be used for people of "average" height and weight. If you are larger or smaller than average, the default cuff will not produce an accurate reading, and a more appropriately sized cuff should be used.

Official guidelines specify the following cuff sizes:

• Small adult cuff: For arm circumferences of 22 to 26 centimeters (cm)
• Adult cuff: For arm circumferences of 27 to 34 cm
• Large adult cuff: For arm circumferences of 35 to 44 cm
• Adult thigh cuff: For arm circumferences of 45 to 52 cm

Proper Positioning

Find someplace to sit where your body is well supported in an upright position and your feet are flat on the ground. Consider sitting at a table or desk and relaxing your arm on the tabletop. The cuffed part of your arm should be supported at the same level as your heart.

The bottom of the cuff should be placed just above the bend of your elbow and directly against your skin. Be sure to roll up your sleeves if you are wearing them, and remove any layers that are in the way.

Take Multiple Readings

One blood pressure reading is not enough to get an accurate measurement. Things like temperature and stress can change blood pressure, so more than one reading allows you to correct for these variations.

More than one reading should be taken during healthcare provider's visits, too—ideally once at the beginning of your visit and once at the end.

Choosing a Blood Pressure Monitor

If you're planning to take your blood pressure at home, it's important to have a reliable blood pressure monitor. The AHA recommends an automatic, cuff-style, bicep (upper-arm) monitor, but there are other options.

When selecting a blood pressure monitor, consider the following:

• Fit:  To ensure a proper fit, measure around your upper arm and choose a monitor that comes with the correct size cuff. 
• Number of people:  If more than one person will be using the monitor, make sure to choose one that fits everyone.
• Features:  Some blood pressure monitors offer extra tech features, like Bluetooth and app connectivity. If you don't think you'll benefit from these extras, go ahead and choose one that is efficient, easy to use, and more affordable. 
• Budget:  High-quality blood pressure monitors vary dramatically in price, from around $25 to well over $100. Keep in mind that a good monitor is a great investment and that you will be using it daily for several years. 
• Other considerations:  The AHA notes that when selecting a blood pressure monitor for a senior, pregnant person, or child, you should make sure it is validated for these conditions.

If you need help selecting an at-home device, check out these blood pressure monitors , which were vetted by the Verywell team based on the above criteria.

Risk Factors for High Blood Pressure

Risk factors for hypertension include:

• Little or no exercise: People who do not exercise regularly are at a greater risk of hypertension and heart disease.
• Unhealthy diet: Diets that are high in salt, sugar, saturated fat, and trans fat are linked to high blood pressure and increased risk to your cardiovascular system (heart and blood vessels).
• Obesity: Being overweight or obese makes your heart work harder to move blood and oxygen through your body.
• Tobacco exposure: Smoking tobacco or being exposed to secondhand smoke can damage arteries and raise blood pressure.
• Binge drinking: Drinking too much regularly is associated with high blood pressure and other heart problems.
• Family history: High blood pressure tends to run in families.
• Age and sex: Men are more likely to have high blood pressure, but the risk increases for everyone with age.

When to Call Your Healthcare Provider

A hypertensive crisis—defined as blood pressure above 180/120 mm Hg—requires immediate medical attention. Call 911 if you have hypertension with any of the following symptoms:

• Chest or back pain
• Difficulty speaking
• Shortness of breath
• Vision change
• Weakness or numbness

Blood pressure increases with age, but exercise, a healthy diet, and avoiding smoking can help lower your risk of hypertension (high blood pressure). Seeing your healthcare provider for regular blood pressure checks and learning to check your own can help you stay healthy.

Studies show that people who have a higher systolic pressure (top number) are at a greater risk of stroke and heart disease than people who have a higher diastolic pressure (bottom number). That said, both numbers are important for monitoring blood pressure and heart health.

High blood pressure numbers include a systolic pressure of 130 mmHg and greater or a diastolic pressure of 80 mmHg and greater. These numbers represent the range of stage one hypertension.

For men who are 60 or older, normal blood pressure is 120/80mmHg. For women who are 60 years or older, it is 120/80 mmHg. Age and sex, as well as race or ethnicity, can determine a person's blood pressure.

Blood pressure varies slightly throughout the day, so it's best to take two readings per day at different times. Take your first reading after you wake up, before eating, exercising , or taking any medications. Take your second in the evening before bed. Whatever you choose, be consistent.

bp leans into convenience and mobility across US, agrees to purchase leading travel center operator, TravelCenters of America

• Adds a network of around 280 travel centers, strategically-located on major highways across US; complementing bp’s US convenience and mobility business.
• $1.3bn cash acquisition within bp’s $16-18bn frame, with acquisition multiple of around six times based on last 12 months’ TravelCenters EBITDA (4Q21-3Q22) i
• Adds EBITDA immediately, expected to grow to around $800m by 2025, underpinned by investment, integration value and synergies.
• Expected to deliver over 15% returns and be accretive to free cash flow per share from 2024. 
• Almost doubles bp’s global convenience gross margin.
• Brings growth opportunities for 4 of bp’s 5 transition growth engines including convenience, EV charging, biofuels/ renewable natural gas (RNG) and, later, hydrogen.

HOUSTON – BP Products North America Inc., a wholly-owned indirect subsidiary of BP p.l.c. (NYSE: bp) has reached an agreement to purchase TravelCenters of America (Nasdaq: TA), one of the country’s leading full-service travel center operators. The acquisition, which is subject to regulatory and TravelCenters of America shareholder approval, will be for $1.3 billion in cash.

TA’s strategically-located network of highway sites complements bp’s existing predominantly off-highway convenience and mobility business, enabling TA and bp to offer fleets a seamless nationwide service. In addition, bp’s global scale and reach will, over time, bring advantages in fuel and biofuel supply as well as convenience offers for consumers. It will provide options to expand and develop new mobility offers including electric vehicle (EV) charging, biofuels, renewable natural gas (RNG) and later hydrogen, both for passenger vehicles and fleets. 

Convenience is one of bp’s five strategic transition growth engines in which it aims to significantly grow investment through this decade. By 2030, bp aims for around half its annual investment to go into these transition growth engines. Over 2023-2030 it aims that around half of its cumulative $55-65 billion transition growth engine investment will go into convenience, bioenergy and EV charging.

Bernard Looney, CEO bp, said: “This is bp’s strategy in action. We are doing exactly what we said we would, leaning into our transition growth engines. This deal will grow our convenience and mobility footprint across the US and grow earnings with attractive returns. Over time, it will allow us to advance four of our five strategic transition growth engines. By enabling growth in EV charging, biofuels and RNG and later hydrogen, we can help our customers decarbonize their fleets. It’s a compelling combination.” 

“This is bp’s strategy in action. We are doing exactly what we said we would, leaning into our transition growth engines. This deal will grow our convenience and mobility footprint across the US and grow earnings with attractive returns.”

Bernard looney, chief executive officer.

The acquisition is expected to bring around 280 TravelCenters of America sites, spanning 44 US states nationwide, into the bp portfolio. These travel centers, which average around 25 acres, offer a full range of facilities for vehicles and fleet trucks, including more than 600 full-service and quick service restaurants, as well as truck maintenance and repair services. Around 70% of TA’s total gross margin is generated by its convenience services business, almost double bp’s global convenience gross margin.  

Dave Lawler, chairman and president of bp America: “Subject to approvals, we look forward to welcoming the TA team to bp.  TA's amazing nationwide network of on-highway locations combined with bp's more than 8,000 off-highway locations have the potential to offer travelers and professional drivers a seamless experience for decades to come.”

bp yesterday announced plans to invest $1bn in EV charging across the US by 2030. 

As part of the transaction, TA will enter into amended lease agreements with Service Properties Trust (NASDAQ: SVC), establishing long-term real estate access. bp looks forward to continuing TA’s existing strong relationship with SVC. 

The acquisition price of $1.3 billion, or $86 per share, represents a multiple of around 6 times based on last twelve months’ TA EBITDA (4Q21 to 3Q22) i .  It is expected to add EBITDA for bp immediately, growing to around $800 million in 2025. 

It supports delivery of bp’s convenience and EV charging growth engine target of more than $1.5bn EBITDA in 2025 and aim for more than $4bn in 2030. bp expects the acquisition to be accretive to free cash flow per share from 2024 and to deliver a return of over 15%. 

Goldman Sachs & Co. LLC is acting as lead financial adviser to bp, Robey Warshaw LLP is acting as financial adviser to bp, and Sullivan & Cromwell LLP is acting as lead legal adviser to bp.

Bernard Looney, chief financial officer Murray Auchincloss and EVP, customers & products Emma Delaney will host a webcast presentation to discuss this agreement today, 16 February 2023, at 4pm GMT/11am EST. The webcast can be viewed here .
