What Is a Charter Bus?

A charter bus, also called a coach bus, is a large, private vehicle reserved for the exclusive use of a group of people. Charter buses are used for a variety of purposes, such as transporting sports teams, tour groups, wedding guests, and corporate teams to their destinations. When you rent a charter bus, you’ll get to create your own itinerary and set your own schedule.

2

What Does a Charter Bus Look Like?

Charter buses are large vehicles, usually about 40-45 feet long and 8 feet wide. They have a sleek, aerodynamic design with large tinted windows and a low-slung body for improved stability. The exterior is often painted in neutral colors like white, black, or silver, and may feature the logo or branding of the charter bus company.

3

What is the difference between a coach bus and a charter bus?

The terms “charter bus” and “coach bus” are used interchangeably. Both refer to a large motorcoach that can seat up to 56 passengers. “Charter” refers to the private nature of the vehicle, while “coach” refers to the specific type of bus.

4

How Many Seats Are on a Charter Bus?

Charter buses are designed to seat large groups comfortably. The standard full-size charter bus has seating for 56 passengers, but there are smaller 47- and 38-passenger models available as well. If you have a smaller group, we can connect you to a 20- or 25-passenger minibus, which is ideal for groups of 35 or fewer passengers.

Most charter buses can seat 56 passengers. Minibuses can seat between 18 and 25 passengers, depending on the model.

8

Do your charter buses come with restroom facilities?

If you have a long journey ahead, plan to add extra time for driver swaps and breaks.
