Global Passenger Network – A history of quality motorcoach operating services

Dubrovnik GPN Meeting
GPN Travel Logo
10 coach operators, each from a different country, decided in 2006 to make a bold change in the industry, uniting their forces to offer better services to clients across multiple countries. The idea was simple – to create a worldwide network of coach operators, that are offering services at the highest standards. The principles were simple – let’s make sure we have a partnership between coach operators that have all the vehicles at the latest standards, that have the safety of the passengers as the most important mission and to encourage an environmentally friendly way to travel. Obviously, the philosophy of GPN has evolved since then, but the basics remain the same. Now we are 42 members, from 5 continents and we are proud to have counted 29 Bi-Annual General Meetings already!

Benefits to our clients: from travel tour agencies and corporate travel to groups and individual holidaymakers

If you read this article, you probably want to learn more about GPN, and why choosing to work with GPN is better than with other potential partners that you find online. Probably the most important thing to keep in mind is that GPN is not a broker. You don’t contact someone online, and they would give you a quote from an operator based on commission.

When you contact GPN, you directly contact the top coach operator in the country or countries where you want to travel. So not only that you’re going to get the best quote, but you’ll also be in direct contact with the person who will take care of all your transportation needs.

GPN Coaches for hire
Best coaches for tour operators

GPN is a one-stop shop for quality transportation services around the world. No matter for which country the services are required, selecting a GPN member guarantees an excellent level of services from reliable companies from around the world.

 

Not anyone, but only the best coach operators can become GPN members. And that’s why the clients can be sure that GPN member companies will offer the best services.

One of the main conditions of being accepted into the GPN family is that the coach operators are fully compliant with current legislation in each of their countries in terms of safety and insurance requirements. Even what you’d think is obvious is being reviewed to the last detail: The coach operators need to have a fleet of vehicles properly maintained, have drivers rigorously selected – and even if the drivers have uniforms.

 

And since the mission is to make sure the client has the best experience while working with us, all GPN members have a 24-hour helpline for emergency cases and all vehicles are equipped with mobile communication systems.

 

All above provide clients with peace of mind that they are in good hands when selecting a GPN member!

Benefits for members, the coach operators

By being accepted into GPN, our members have unique networking opportunities with other coach operators from around the world. It’s a great way to exchange knowledge, experience and know-how. Coach operators can share best practices in various countries in the world and adapt them in their own companies to set high standards for the motorcoach industry globally.

 

GPN members come together to share marketing & sales activities, enhance their company’s brand name, and differentiate themselves from the local competition as they are the only companies that can ensure 24hour emergency assistance on the road, no matter where their coaches are located through the network.

Environmentally friendly transportation

GPN members from around the world have been attentive to all matters regarding sustainability and environmentally friendly practices. Using a bus or a motorcoach for your travel, which all our members focus on and promote, is itself an environmentally friendly way to be transported, as it has lower CO2 emissions. To further enhance this and protect the environment, our members have adjusted their processes in their entire business operations and have been accredited with ISO 14001 certification, implementing environmental management systems with multiple benefits – including the improvement of resource efficiency, reducing waste, measurement of environmental impact and improving it overall.
