Planning group transportation can feel overwhelming—especially if you’ve never booked a charter bus before. Whether you’re organizing a school trip, wedding shuttle, corporate outing, or group getaway, having the right information upfront makes the process smooth and stress-free.
Below are answers to the most frequently asked questions we hear at Triangle Bus Charters, so you can book with confidence.
1. What Is a Charter Bus?
A charter bus is a private vehicle reserved exclusively for your group. Unlike public buses or rideshares, charter buses follow your schedule, your route, and your itinerary.
They’re ideal for:
-
School field trips
-
Weddings and special events
-
Corporate meetings and retreats
-
Sports teams and fan travel
-
Church and community groups
-
Family reunions and group vacations
2. How Many People Can a Charter Bus Hold?
Charter buses come in different sizes depending on your group:
-
Mini buses – best for smaller groups
-
Mid-size buses – ideal for medium-sized events
-
Full-size motorcoaches – perfect for large groups and long-distance travel
If you’re unsure which size you need, our team can help you choose the right option based on your group size, trip length, and comfort needs.
3. How Much Does a Charter Bus Cost?
Pricing varies depending on several factors, including:
-
Trip distance and duration
-
Bus size
-
Time of year
-
Pick-up and drop-off locations
-
Special requirements (multi-day trips, multiple stops, etc.)
The best way to get accurate pricing is to request a personalized quote. We’ll walk you through your options and help you stay within budget—no surprises.
4. How Far in Advance Should I Book?
