CHARTER:

What is a charter and how much do they cost?
Answer: A charter is a temporary lease of our vehicle and driver. When a group wants to take a trip somewhere they will reserve a coach for the trip that they have planned. This is a charter. Charter prices depend on the mileage, destination, days of charter service, and coach usage. We invite you to submit a free quote request with no obligation. Chartering is generally a very economical mode of group travel.

What kind of vehicles are available for charter?
Answer: We operate modern, clean, and meticulously maintained state-of-the-art fleet of 47-49 and 55-57 seat Motorcoaches, 24-30 seat Minibuses, Double Deckers, and Vans.

Who drives your vehicles?
Answer: We take tremendous pride in our professional drivers. They are specifically trained and must complete medical reviews, background checks, driving record checks, training and testing, drug and alcohol testing and safety meetings.

How far ahead should I make arrangements?
Answer: It is never too soon to organize your charter. There are some times during the year when we are extremely busy, so book early! The weekends are usually they busiest with weddings, football games, holiday shopping, etc. so don’t hesitate to book a year in advance.

Where can I load my bus?
Answer: We can load your group anywhere that our vehicle can fit. Some residential streets are narrow, so please take that into consideration when planning your pick-up location. If you want to use a public parking lot, please call the manager of the establishment and get permission from them.
