Our story

KarnatakaLines started in 2016 with four buses between Bengaluru and Mangaluru. A decade later we run our own fleet across the state — still obsessing over the same things: on-time departures, clean interiors and crew who know the road.

Our fleet

Every bus is owned and maintained by us at our Bengaluru and Hubballi depots. Full inspection before each departure, GPS on every vehicle, and a maximum age of six years across the fleet.

Our people

Drivers work rostered shifts with mandated rest, and every overnight service carries two. Our onboard hosts and support team are salaried employees, not contractors.

Our promise

Transparent fares with taxes shown upfront, free cancellation up to six hours before departure, and a human on the phone when something goes wrong.
