Going Naked across the Straits

Thursday, 10 Sep, 2009 0

AUCKLAND – A low-cost New Zealand bus company has expanded its service to include a budget priced Wellington to Picton ferry offering.

Nakedbus.com cuts overhead costs from the ticketing process by providing ‘internet based’ ticketing and reducing the need for middlemen.

Approaching their third year anniversary, nakedbus.com has enjoyed growth of 90 percent over the past year according to managing director, Hamish Nuttall.

Nuttall says the increase has been boosted by recession wary consumers with around 40 percent of his current customers electing to use nakedbus.com over private cars.

Up to 7,000 travellers use nakedbus.com each week.
