Records show that you bought Gray Line or CitySights “hop-on, hop-off” bus tours in New York City between February 1, 2009 and June 16, 2014 and that you may be eligible for a refund of up to $40.00 from a Settlement. You must submit a Claim Form at www.TourBusSettlement.com to get your refund.

What is this about? There is a $19 million Settlement with Twin America, LLC, Coach USA, Inc., International Bus Services, Inc., CitySights LLC, and City Sights Twin, LLC (together called the “Defendants”). The lawsuit claims that Coach and CitySights conspired to form a joint venture, Twin America, against state and federal law. The lawsuit claims that this new company dominated the “hop-on, hop-off” bus tour business in New York City enabling the Defendants to fix ticket prices and reduce competition – resulting in higher ticket prices for customers. The Defendants deny that they did anything wrong.

What are my rights? Even if you do nothing you will be bound by the Court’s decisions. If you want to keep your right to sue the Defendants yourself, you must exclude yourself from the Settlement Class bySeptember 5, 2014. If you stay in the Settlement Class, you may object to the Settlement by September 5, 2014.

The Court will hold a hearing on October 20, 2014 to consider whether to approve the Settlement and a payment of attorneys’ fees up to one-third of the Settlement Fund, plus reimbursement of expenses, and a special service payment of $20,000 each to two Class Representatives. You or your own lawyer may appear and speak at the hearing at your own expense.
