A charter bus (also called a motorcoach or coach bus) is a large vehicle designed to transport groups of people over long distances. Charter buses typically seat 40 to 56 passengers and come equipped with amenities like reclining seats, air conditioning, restrooms, WiFi, power outlets, TV monitors, DVD players, and ample storage space for luggage. These buses are ideal for transporting large groups to events like conferences, conventions, sporting events, weddings, and multi-day tours. They’re also great for long-distance trips between cities because they offer the most comfort and onboard features.
A minibus is a smaller version of a charter bus that usually seats between 15 and 35 passengers. Minibuses are perfect for shuttling smaller groups around town, such as wedding parties, corporate teams, airport transfers, or church groups. While they don’t have as much storage space as a full-size charter bus, they’re still comfortable and can be equipped with features like reclining seats, air conditioning, WiFi, and power outlets. Minibuses are great for short-distance trips and navigating busy city streets where larger vehicles might have trouble.
Most charter buses in our fleet have between 40 and 56 seats. The exact number depends on the make and model of the bus. For example, a standard MCI J4500 or Prevost H3-45 can seat up to 56 passengers, while some Setra and Van Hool models may have slightly fewer seats depending on the interior configuration. If you have a specific seating requirement, let us know when you book so we can match you with a bus that fits your group size.
Minibuses typically seat anywhere from 15 to 35 passengers. Common sizes include 18-passenger, 20-passenger, 25-passenger, and 30-passenger models.

If you’re not sure what size you need, our team can help you choose the best option based on your group size and trip details.

Charter buses have the most luggage space, with large undercarriage bays that can hold suitcases, equipment, or other bulky items. Overhead compartments inside the bus provide additional storage for smaller bags. Minibuses have limited storage space, usually in the form of rear cargo areas or overhead racks.
