Jones Travel Company History
In the fall of 1969 Phil Jones turned a vision and his dream into reality by forming a small transportation company providing transportation services to groups throughout southeastern Wisconsin. What started out as a small operation with just a few buses grew over the years to meet the ever-increasing demands for quality service at a fair price. Soon after starting the business, Jones Travel began offering a full-line of escorted motorcoach tours throughout North America.
In 1992, Scott and Eric Jones, Phil’s sons, began their own business called Jones School Bus Service, Inc. They provided school transportation services to over 20 school districts in southeastern Wisconsin and northern Illinois. In 1995, Phil Jones retired and sold Jones Travel to Scott and Eric.
After the events of 9/11 led to a severe downturn in the economy and travel, Scott and Eric decided to dissolve the tour operations of the company and concentrated solely on the delivery of quality charter services to customers throughout the region. In 2005, Scott and Eric sold their interest in Jones School Bus Service to Durham School Services and now concentrates solely on providing quality motorcoach, minibus and trolley services.
Scott and Eric along with a dedicated team of employees are working each day to improve and grow the business to meet the ever changing demands of the customer. New amenities and comforts for customers such as WI-FI connectivity on our fleet, purchasing state-of-the-art over the road buses, providing handicapped services at each level of our service (including Trolleys!) are all part of the effort to provide services expected and needed by our customers.
