Mid-size buses (28–38 passengers) may have a restroom, depending on the model. Minibuses (18–25 passengers) typically do not have a restroom. If a restroom is important for your trip, please specify this when booking so we can assign a vehicle that meets your needs.

Many newer charter buses are equipped with 110V power outlets and/or USB charging ports at each seat or between pairs of seats. This is common on full-size (40–56 passengers) and mid-size (28–38 passengers) coaches. Minibuses may have a limited number of outlets or none at all. If keeping devices charged is important for your group, ask about buses with power outlets when you request a quote.

Yes, many charter buses offer free onboard Wi-Fi that allows passengers to browse the web, check email, and use social media. However, the connection may not be fast enough for streaming video or large downloads, especially in rural areas or when many devices are connected at once. If reliable Wi-Fi is important for your trip, please mention this when booking so we can assign a vehicle with the best available connectivity.

Full-size and mid-size coaches feature large baggage bays beneath the floor for suitcases and bulky items, as well as overhead parcel racks inside the cabin for smaller bags.

If your group will be bringing extra luggage or equipment (such as sports gear or musical instruments), let us know so we can assign an appropriately sized vehicle.

Popular locations include the Fraze Pavilion, Kettering Fairmont High School, and major shopping centers like The Greene Town Center.

It’s best to book your charter bus rental as early as possible—ideally 2–6 months in advance—to ensure availability and get the best rates.
