The bullet train<\/a> connecting Los Angeles via Rancho Cucamonga to Las Vegas is about to enter its critical construction phase.<\/strong> With four stops in total between Nevada and Southern California, it will officially become the country\u2019s first high-speed train, reaching 218 mph, and will transport passengers between the two cities in about 2 hours and 10 minutes.<\/strong><\/p>\n But now, the big question for future passengers is how much will a ride cost?<\/strong> According to filings submitted by Brightline West and published by Newsweek<\/a> a one-way ticket is expected to cost around $119 for standard class and $133 for premium<\/strong> seating by 2031, the first year of full service. <\/p>\n Although the price might be higher than a flight, it is only slightly more than the cost of a pair of well-known brand sneakers,<\/strong> which averages around $110<\/strong> according to RunRepeat.<\/a> Beyond that, the price also reflects the significant time savings, with travel expected to take roughly half the time it would <\/strong>by car.<\/strong><\/p>\n It\u2019s important to note that these ticket prices are just estimates for now,<\/strong> and we won\u2019t know the final costs until closer to the train\u2019s official launch. Travelers should take these numbers as a rough guide rather than a guarantee, as the project moves forward, more concrete details will likely be released.<\/strong><\/p>\n \t\t\t\t<\/blockquote>\n
