Peter Pan, Greyhound Go Separate Ways

SPRINGFIELD, MA — Peter Pan announced it will cut ties with Greyhound, ending a nearly 20-year partnership between the bus travel behemoths. The partnership will end on Sept. 27, Peter Pan announced on its website Monday.

The Springfield-based company says the split will allow paperless boarding at every route, more express service throughout the Northeast, and more on-time service. It also promises the lowest fares available, but it's not exactly alone in making that claim.

Peter Pan and Greyhound coordinated ticket sales and routes since 1998.

Peter Pan operates in Massachusetts, New Hampshire, Rhode Island, Connecticut, Maryland, New York, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Delaware and Washington, D.C.

Greyhound was founded more than 100 years ago in Minnesota. Its headquarters are in Dallas.
