Taking an 11-hour bus instead of a two-hour flight might not sound like an ideal transportation swap, but Napaway, a premium sleeper motor coach service, could change your mind.

“The quick pitch is: not all time is created equal,” Aronov told me. “Awake time isn’t the same as asleep time; comfortable time isn’t the same as uncomfortable time; stress time isn’t the same as relaxing time.”

It took some deliberating to choose an outfit for the trip. The other passengers would be tucked away in one of Napaway’s 18 private suites, and we were all there to sleep. However, we’d be stepping off the bus in the center of Nashville at 8 a.m., and I wouldn’t be able to check into my Airbnb until 4 p.m. Instead of going pajama mode, orA Napaway attendant helped me put my duffel bag under the eight-wheeler with tinted windows and an image of a twinkling constellation across the side.

Aronov says it took years of working with the company Butterfly Flexible Seating Solutions to develop the suites, each of which have more than 13 feet of usable space and a pull-down privacy screen. The executive was inspired after hearing that a tall, frequent flier friend slept like a baby on a luxurious lie-flat seat in business class . If they could put lie-flat seats on planes, why not put them in motor coaches?“It seems kind of trivial, but the key to good sleep is being flat,” he says.

When we got the announcement that we were 15 minutes from our final destination, I woke up for real. I pulled out a mirror to examine the damage; my face was a little puffy and my hair had become chaotic in the night, but I didn’t mind. I felt that same sleepover camp excitement and had slept deeply enough to have full-fledged dreams.At 8 a.m. on the dot, Napaway parked in downtown Nashville at 421 Rep. John Lewis Way North.
