Ask which road your bus takes
AK Movers runs direct via Dera Ghazi Khan in around fourteen hours. Operators routing through Sukkur take eighteen. That is a four hour difference on the same corridor for a similar fare, and it is the single most useful question to ask at booking. The DG Khan road is shorter but crosses quieter country; the Sukkur road is longer but better served.
Via Dera Ghazi Khan or via Sukkur
The choice of road changes the journey substantially, and operators do not always make it obvious which they use.
The direct road
East through the DG Khan pass into south Punjab, then north. Around fourteen hours and the AK Movers routing.
The long way
South east to Sukkur then north up the Indus corridor. Around eighteen hours but on better travelled roads.
Seated either way
The Balochistan sleeper specialists work the Karachi corridor only, so this route is seated whatever you pay.
The sleeper anomaly does not reach this corridor
On Karachi to Quetta, berths undercut premium seats because regional specialists compete against national rates. That does not apply here. No operator runs sleepers to Lahore, so you are choosing between seated classes and the only real variables are routing and comfort.
